What do you think this poem is about?

war- are you ready

dead bodies on the streets
hate and shooting to stay alive
a broken nation
politics covering the bare truth
what is the solution
an excuse to spread hate
will it help build a nation
or damned the freedom of others
am i still alive
there's war

we always find ways to kill each-other
a lie covering a lie
one vote made Hitler win
one vote changed a nation
genocide, homicide recycling hate
Holocaust, Rwanda, Dafur, and more covered by lies
are government is still and motionless
am i still alive
there's war

speak out, be heard, peacefully protest
but never be muted
the bible is an outline of everyday life
change is never in site
hate breeds in everyone
but so does love
cant you see, remember
or are you blind
am i still alive
there's war

people are dyeing on the streets
refugees and innocent victims
assassinations of people who want change
rapes and killings
excuse of religion
death death and more death
gangs and mobs, revenge
war on our streets
war in homes
war war war
am i still alive
there's war



are you ready
are you scared
you should be.

    scared enough to stay out of the politics and economics; of it too.
