1. LEGION OF CORRUPTION

Ladies and gentlemen
Feast your eyes
Upon the machine programmed
To leak corruption
Polluting the air with
Sinister grins and firm handshakes

Ties tighten around your necks
As though they are soon to be
Fixed to the gallows and
Suspend you by the throat
Executed every day of your life

Countless hours spent in front of a mesmerizing screen
Indoctrinating, hypnotizing
Orchestrated by the ones behind the scenes

Systematic media broadcasting
Leads to distractions
Diverting attention away from
What is really happening
Parties running in elections
Promising that we will be saved

Intending to deliver nothing new
Into the lives of the homeless
The sick and the abused
Instead presenting those
At the top of the pyramid
With more bricks so they can raise their pedestals

Times have changed
But the nature of man will forever
Stay the same
Chasing white rabbits into the hole of greed
Sitting upon their thrones of gold
Demanding more
