Nixons Nightmare
- “We must wage total war against dangerous drugs”
- Richard Nixon
- A war is being waged on our personal freedom
- Control freaks deciding what we may or may not breathe in
- Every day, good people are put through hell
- Sentenced to waste years away locked in a cell
-Addicts need help not persecution
- Locking them up is not a solution
- They say the war on drugs is about saving the kids
- So they put them behind bars - Fucking Hypocrites!
- Incarceration given for possession
- Is a sin against common sense
- You would send to jail a man for wronging nobody
- You are out your minds
- You’re fucking out your minds
- Incarceration given for possession
- Is a sin against common sense
- You would send to jail a man for wronging nobody
- You are out your minds
- You’re fucking out your minds
- This flesh and bone belongs to me alone
- Your laws they mean nothing to me
- Though you may bind me and steal away my liberty
- My conscience will always be free
- “I realise the need for money, we have increased the amount of money 7 fold.
- More money will be Needed in the future”
– *Richard Nixon*
- 19 Years... it was 19 years
- Incarceration given for possession
- Is a sin against common sense
- You would send to jail a man for wronging nobody
- You are out your minds
- You’re fucking out your minds
- Marketing liquor while jailing for weed
- Hypocrisy blots out the sun
- A morally bankrupt unwinnable war
- I dream of a world soon to come
The war on drugs is morally bankrupt and unwinnable. It has left millions of lives shattered in its wake and avoids the reality that drug addiction is a medical problem not a criminal one. Nixon’s Nightmare is a lament for all those who have suffered and continue to suffer under its boot.
