Humiliation of Society
Hearts beat in shallow chests as brains tick in empty heads
Unseen eyes glitter as to small hands pull to big triggers
Money wouldn’t let go as it dragged the world behind it
If bombs fall killing everyone do they make a sound?
Lies come from microphone equipped stages as the masses keep a clapping
I watched millions die for greed of the liquid black gold genre
After he lost faith the son of god sold out and did Nissan car commercials
Truth is swept under the rug by the politician janitors
In the jails of hate of race only people stood
Only language of government, propaganda
Nations bleed white vomit as they all turn into one
Open your mind to your own thought not just what your taught
Flags of freedom flew high creating shadows of corruption
Someone asked quietly did he find his nuclear weapons?
Our violence took control as we laughed at history
Calling voices from the gutters to an unhearing feeling
Indicating that this is a mistake and it may be too late to start to cooperate
Even religion took its place behind the rolling tanks of destruction
Thought is the only thing left to save
Kneel to our new god, fear
