democracy is just an illusion
the judging gatekeepers
wear power like a veil
it`s a drug that
these junkies feed upon
they feed
and feed
and say anything to get their fix
as the masses believe
and then adhere
they play their games
as the pawns are sacrificed
so they can have their gain
their democracy is just an illusion
with every drop of blood they feed
an hunger that will linger for eternity
a game of follow the leader
is at hand
like a herd of sheep
one another they follow
into the slaughter room
doom
the judging gatekeepers
let unity explode
the divide grows and grows
united we stand
divide we fall
a quote we all know
a quote they want to destroy
as they set the divide wheels in motion
and the blind remains blind
democracy is just an illusion
you are free to do as you please
the puppet master tells the puppet
while he pulls its strings
control
out of the light
a calm voice spins
but if you listen closely
his words fall like bricks
and leads into
a life of fear
but time has passed
the hourglass sand has ended
the cage has surrounded the captured
the dream becomes a nightmare
inside the dark a lone zombie screams
and realizes he`s been sleepwalking
now...he`s awaken
but when life is seen
inside the black clouds
where fire flames burn
but leaves no physical scars
ignorance is believed to be a power
and delusions is the truth
the mirage fogs reality
democracy is just an illusion
cloaked in all his misconception
the deceiver hides the truth
and then sells it as virtue
poison he spits
as he calls it the truth
it becomes the narrative line
and it is repeated over time
until its soaked up
sponge like
it seeps
and it seeps
into the sleeping minds
to their distorted truth
to walk into their world
I will not
