In the End, Gandhi and King Were Murdered

Know that all the rules they have made up
Only shackle you. Vote, and they will stay
In power. Protest peacefully, and they will
Laugh and let you wave your signs until
You tire and go away. Know, if you're to
Lose your shackles, you must fight with
Fist and gun, steal or ruin what they have,
And show them they can lose their lives.
After all, when rules fail them, this is what
They do.
