Toxic Legacy

LIke a 3d scence
the smoke gained speed
swallowing any and every thing
the fighters who survived
now are living on a short life span
only being rewarded with
a promise
that death will be knocking shortly
on a day where passion exceeded hate on our streets
the gov't now went back to regular ways
and turned there heads
to those who we call our heros
a vault rested underneath the towers
no records and no memory of its existance
half a billion dollars was counted
pure gold and silver
within days of its discovery
it was moved with the night as its shield
while millions walked by it never the wiser
send it back to those who it belongs to
our banks
our economy needs it so
unlike those who went to battle with the flames
who walked blind in the smoke
and fought through the rubble for survivors
those who now are forced into early retirement
cant gain medical coverage
cause there is no proof their illnesses were caused by 9-11
the one day that changed our lives
where everyone grew a heart
ask majority if it was to happen again
would u do it the same?
majority i bet would say....
due to the after math of our country
if we knew we'd be treated like this
i wouldve just walked away

(just at the thought of just one of our heros saytin this thanks to our "corrupted" govt should break our hearts)
