Illusions of Freedom
I see the mirrors in my mind
Reflecting all the evil
Brought about by mankind
They show the truth
Indisputable proof
We are governed by one
Yet dictated by all
And god forbid we wind up
On the wrong side of the law
Such a horrible time to live
A generation of children
Brainwashed by the villain
A generation of slaves
Serving their master
Taught to obey
The rules of the bastard
We were taught as children
That in America we are free
Yet after observing our culture, I
Agree to disagree
