False Change/Failed Hope

It sounded good for a perfect world,
Change for the people stuck in tradition's mire.
You offered hope for the hopeless and freedom from oppression,
Wallstreet's crime and God's brimstone and fire.
I've yet to see what's really gone right.
This economic downturn has people just "livin' the life",
Forgetting your vision and remembering the pain,
Drinking and "poppin'"- all things remaining the same.
The only change can come from within,
The hope of glory and the redemption of sin.
