Theatre Of Power

Theatre Of Power

Arena of no sentiment 
Only strategy and interest 

The labour room of lies
Where deceit is given birth to 
Ripe and matured 

No one is important 
Everyone is fulfilling an interest 
You are as relevant as the interest you are fulfilling 

At the theatre of power 
Only greed for power plays
Blood and water do not flow in the veins of the players
Only selfish interest does 

In the game
You either play 
Or get played 

In the theatre of power 
You only know what you are told 
And you can get away with anything 
As long as you can keep your mouth shut
Or you know someone who knows someone that knows someone in the realms of powers that be.
