A rap/rock song that was originally acoustic. I have to admit that I really like my lyric here. It's kinda odd and sloppy, but it's fun!

Just a guitar hacker writing and recording original music in my home studio. I have enough tools to be dangerous LOL.
Would love a real band to cover and make any of my songs their own. I think some of the songs are good, better than I have the ability to do them justice. If interested, reach out...

Story behind the song
I worked and worked trying to save the original version which was folk rock-ist but I ended up junking it and made this rap-ish weird one.
Lyrics
Maginot Line Troubles looming like red sky morning Whatll we do to heed the warning? Like France before well close our eyes Ignoring change and technologies cries Future fearing weve clung to the past Scoffing at the voice of the iconoclast Blissful complacence false security Well be scattered in histories debris Will we build another Maginot Line? Live together in a bygone time? All invaders will stay so far away This wont be our reckoning day Oblivious to change caught unaware We wont award no Croix de Guerre Our heads buried deep feel so fine While were asleep in our Maginot Line [Solo 1[ Ideas so different from those of our own Culture and theory we dont condone The Soviets once tried to block them all To blunt and destroy the Sirens call Didnt learn nothin from an empires' demise Imprison dissenters label new thoughts lies We interpret our history as our needs dictate To reap what weve sown its got to be out fate If we build another Berlin Wall will we Stay separated and never fall? All invaders will stay so far away This wont be our reckoning day Oblivious to changes caught unaware One day well turn out to the public square Heads bowed low well watch it fall Our shame of shames our Berlin Wall [Solo 2] Changes come old thoughts give way Past lines succumb to righteous decay When we all learn to open our eyes Ancient walls give way to friends and new allies Can we learn from past mistakes? Or shall we count the lives that the new war takes? The clocks will tick our memories fade Of Berlin Walls and Maginot Lines Of Berlin Walls and Maginot Lines Of Berlin Walls and Maginot Lines
