Beyond the Establishment and System
We're locked in system
Bound in chains,
By a system that doesn't want us free again,
Caught in a society that barely cares
Inundated by advertisers selling their wares,
While government forces rules and laws down our throats
In a nanny state society we are all controlled.
Working for corporations and selling our souls
Never making a stand or getting too bold
To fight for our rights
And somehow make a change in our lives
Governed by fat cat men who are all too old
Seeking to line their pockets and gain power and control
And their is nothing in anyway that we can find that consoles
But I for one am past the point of overload
Travelling into a place of the unknown
Of opting out the system, the establishment and state
Going beyond the rules and ditching the hate
As promoted by the media
With its domesticated displays.
