Artists up above, controlling it all
Painting the past, Truth's took the fall
Lies etched over our reality
Falsehoods as far as the eye can see
Truth now just a forgotten memory
Exalting those who uphold our interests
Given them our power, our trust
Only to face harsh betrayal once again
As the wolves sheepishly recline to their den
History speaks for the future of our descent
Locked away, unable to wrestle with our fate
Destiny decided though it may not be too late
Let these flames surge from your heart
Burn ablaze and we will forge a new start
All the world's a stage, time to pick your part
Ocean's waves roll up above our reach
Drowning out our voices, cutting off our speech
Silence freezing over the people like you and me
There are those, who by sacrifice of their humanity
And their money talks, it is the key
