Not by coercion or brainwashing
Just reading the Bible and meditating
On the life of Jesus I keep thinking there could be a stanza break here
At the same time, I became a vocal, outspoken, pro-trans anarchist
Because I believe in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness love the incidental rhyme and parallel rhythm here, very nice
And no matter what government is in charge
I still have god government / God, I see you. charge/God more excellent rhyme
This year, my personal political beliefs
Tied directly to my faith
Has been labeled as TERRORISM "have" been? and do we need "as" >Have been labeled TERRORISM
Last year, ICE contacted my mom
About me and someone 10 years ago id never even met "I'd"
ICE who has proven reckless in their discrimination and negligence
ICE who has warrantless access to our data
ICE who has been given electric shock gloves you can really feel this run, and the way it ends with the shock gloves, so chilling. emphasizing violence as the inevitable consequence of authoritarian excess.
You think they couldn't, wouldn't, hurt me or my family? damn right! a deserved accusatory remark.
I've been homeless, starving, jailed, stranded
And almost murdered by a loved one love this turn to the personal/confessional
But I've always had hope for the future <3
I've always strived to be good
And do better <3 <3 this really got me in my feelings. such straight-ahead, earnest humility and hopefulness in the face of so much restriction, aggression, death
I've never been more scared in my life oof. final turn/return to theme hits hard.
Do you believe I should be in prison? nope!
Little old dog grooming guitar playing me? the best line, easily
The law thinks so tell em!!!
