---- IMAGE REMOVED because photobucket.com no longer allows embedded images ----
The peace your arms directed moved humanity and grace
Of luck and prosperity now echoes through nightmares and disgrace
For thousands of years you represented so many cultures
Until propaganda branded you into an image of slaughter
You were sealed on the coin in the Great City of Troy
Adorned Indian textiles and spoken through The Great Buddhist voice
Worn proudly on the sleeves of Americans during the first war
Then badged on the Boy Scouts until Hitler made you a whore
A symbolism of the four cardinal directions have now lost their ways
Memories as old as ancient gods lost in time and misplaced
To you well being was to translate war from svasti
Idolized by so many wanna be ignorant nazis
Genocide may be your agenda but wipe that stupid look from your face
As you now know your tattooed not by your hero but a tan and yellow race
