Passive Resistance
Hear me Brothers and Sisters,
Fear and lies walk hand in hand.
Sired by the rich and shameless,
To control this sacred land.
They just smile their plastic smiles,
And pretend to be our friends.
But they'll try to use us all,
For their own devilish ends.
They preach the same old message,
On a soapbox wrought with flame.
Without any solutions,
They point at the ones to blame.
With division on their lips,
And Hellfire in their eyes.
They say who we should believe,
And say who we should despise.
They dance us acrooss the stage,
Like mere puppets on their strings.
And blind us with false visions,
Till we see what evil brings.
If we stay true to ourselves,
Each one of us standing tall.
Laying down our aggression,
Is the hope for one and all.
