written in truth exactly how i see today 

One small little country which houses one of the highest paid governments in this modern world joke ran upside down A big part of our life existing reality when the backbone is gone snakes appear with light surely we spend working for slave masters who get rich of our toils quickly Paying us poor wages beneath worth middle men when fat cats do little honesty whips out fairness in the way of work very shy who cares Because of what the banks done bonuses where paid to them that destroyed the building of our country highly qualified tradesmen left on the street Without a shred of pity unemployment has risen all our young have left to foreign lands few have returned tens of thousands I mean addressing it truthfully Unemployment has not changed hidden secrets spill beans there is few jobs in our county facts on the streets speak job seekers they call us now with branding irons Builders can build this country to glory again yet now we are classed of little worth sent out to sweep streets picking up the rubbish where we belong former taxpayers Corruption when you feel the sadness of truth involved in the structure of thousands of homes hotels petrol stations even the construction of prisons Now we are worthless on the streets of our own land at a time we were the highest taxpayers of this state we now pick up the bankers tab and effects from Europe's deal Honesty has a funny way of drawing pictures lucky our state does not protect innocent people anymore without evidence I was arrested on German hear say My family suffered seeing what I was going through long gone is the days of our state justice not one person of the state said sorry when I won my case Held in chains this is my truth If my country would of stood up for me as there was no evidence to support such claims In my battle kept down made me smarter opening my eyes Claiming higher ground class beggars bowl out hands on now I am a builder one noble profession hard working people like us stand the test of time Paddies we built the cities a legacy stands in concrete handed down from our forefathers trades hard working men and women of Erin Sons and daughters worked the green land over for centuries we have been raped and plundered cruelty our sovereignty has been stolen away from us State owed by the people oil under our soil talk of gold enough gas to heat our little island sold out shame with out the consent of its citizens power of attorney give Setting wages to suit elite bodies opens the eyes closed non profitable businesses paid by taxpayers government Unfair grounds bared selling rights away trail of tears Keeping people at the lower end scales silver justice slaves unto the organ grinders note forced correct term There goal is so undemocratic politically set falsehood lies Forced down so they will not rise the poor struggle uneducated fools behind veils we see Holy smoke Minimum wage a complete and utter joke Unlivable as prices soar out of control insurance rockets for toughest jobs beneath suits employed struggling be realistic we receive a pension at seventy respect I cannot stop laughing at stupidity when it strikes a funny key bones aching approaching middle age life's labour exposed wore done from years of sweat even blood dripped Joke of the century double standards stop for a moment hiding away with your secret pacts undisclosed truths reveal for the workers vote government bodies take note think Should be the same all around lead by example set down we fought against slavery once before our forefathers freedom and civil rights for the working class to speak Middle class has almost been deleted from society as monies are less and the work load doubled for peanuts a third of the value meaning work until death Logic rents in cities increase backwards peddling rotten apples as the vice like grips society happiness is rare and beautiful Long hours less holidays in most cases very true Homeless has risen to an all time high hospitals people are dying on trolleys fact even cutting funding to the disabled beneath par Grants are cut in the arts field to virtually nothing roads are in disrepair in dark wet nights dangerous without cats eyes a safety risk to motorists meeting Motor tax is daylight robbery only new cars have little tax hitting those less well off playing the game property tax laugh a minute after paying tax on materials Now water tax another con to control natural energy our seas are being plundered as quotas are enforced by Europe on our seas controlled without out consent Do we bend over as a people backwards as our riches are stolen do we know or learn any lessons from past tense democracy taxes make it better for our children they say Long gone are the days people trading from their toils organic healthy food sold in small shops from local farmers market past tense fresh milk in a bottle was always beautiful to drink Even milk is not the same as they fill it now with substitutes no such thing as fresh eggs in the supermarkets or meat everything has been sold to big co operatives My granny told the same story struggling away back our country is going backwards in time controlling food people have lost the meaning of life Poisonous goods sold in shops Gmos next it will be steroid filled meat nothing healthy anymore even farms have shut down emigration so many young gone Why a country is beginning to cut the elderly leaving it cold a cruel blow in truth for those now retired They believed the lies but i don't Now seeing so many of the straws that breaks a camels back looking through the needle eye of greed no remorse instead we struggle on in our every day hardships right
