Gonna get me a hammer, gonna make me a better world...
Hammer
by Lerk

Gonna get me a hammer
gonna make me a better world
get me nails sturdy and strait
gonna make me a better world

Tearing down the walls of hate
ripping out the pipes of fear
smashing the foul corruption
Gonna make me a better world

No wall of lies gonna stop me
No rivers of blood gonna hold me
No more enemy from within/without
Gonna make me, gonna make me a hall of might

Never never gonna drop that hammer
never gonna stop the plan
never gonna forget the strength
of just one man

Gonna mold a people from bones
Gonna raise up the dead
Gonna march up to the door
Hammer till my fist turns to dust

No fake leaderman got a right
no whispering mouthpiece
No planter of outrage
got a right to stop me

5. thanks, it just came out while typing.
not very good poetic structure or anything, but it came close to conveying what I was feeling.
