The Oppressed

The Oppressed
 Stand against the high and mighty.
 As a unit, stand and fight.
 Their homes will burn.
 Give them what they deserve.
 Our back door is flooded.
 Chaos, unrest.
 Take the power back.
 Raise your fist up high.
 They're all puppets on strings.
 With a bullet, feel the sting.
 Corrupted selfish bastards.
 This can’t last forever.
 Our nation is taxed to death.
 Send them to their death.
 This country deserves better.
 The streets are on fire.
 Feed the machine.
 The oppressed are not free.
 Tear down the walls of reason.
 Fight for what you believe in.
 This is our civil war.
 They are above us no more.
 They're all full of greed.
 Shoot them down and watch them bleed.
