Wait and See?

They can tell me "wait and see",
but I have seen
what things can be--
bondage and chains
in the land of the free
and fires burning at night.
No, these eyes have seen
already, and I have
heard enough.
They want me to wait
until they see--
but that answer is not right.
It never was
good enough for me.
I have seen
and so has history.
The only response?

Fight.
