Power to the People
Power to the people!
We are gathered here to unravel,
The master plan for the masses
Justice moves swiftly as molasses
Let's uncover the lies untold,
before the casket's close
You see, I'm just speaking on what I know...
The dark man who stands brave and bold
Lays cold arms fold,
Sunday best dressed
He mirrors the coward who's lost in life
You see, that's the desired mold.
Conspiracy theories are all we're left with,
Left wing? Right wing
It doesn't matter, the truth still soars above our head.
Born and bred, in the land of the free!
Where everything is for sale.
Well we sailed across the sea just to see
Nothing is free
They'll leave us, floating in the well...
Pennies tossed for thoughts
I'll admit it, I scrapped and fought
For loose change,
I grabbed hold of the noose and hanged,
With the hopes of being drawn up
Out this hole
Just to hear the word, SOLD!
I'm sold to the show..
Improperly perceived as property
Probably why we don't believe in owning property.
Sheep without a sheppard,
We'll follow anyone to greener pastures,
But we have the power to close this chapter
If we just simply sift through the chapters.
The writing is on the wall..
The power is with the people.
