The Solution

Let's make a party for the people
All of whom are free and equal

A simple state, a fairer nation
One of thought and contemplation

Let's liquidate the toils of war
Try not to kill but feed our poor

A brighter day can be achieved
Be not misled nor deceived
 
Let's outlaw the endless greed
legalize and free the weed

A call to each and everyone
To use their voice and not their gun

Let's combine the peaceful masses
cast out the corrupt & hand them their asses

This is a great follow up to "State of Despair." Without getting too philosophical, I always wonder if the old addage, "Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely" is true of every human. When we overthrow the corrupt, do we simply trade them for people who, given the power, will in time be corrupted by it? It's an interesting question a person could contemplate and debate until the end of time.

One thing I noticed is that you seem to need a comma after, "A simple state" so it would read "A simples state, a fairer nation."

Overwise, it's a fine poem with exactly the kind of confidence and determination every citizen of the world could do more with.
