i want to see
|
all minds set free
|
like slaves to their deaths
|
they pledge their liberty
|
like awls through their ears
|
nailed to a post
|
they sold their souls to the things they loved most
|
now they accuse
|
my mind is closed
|
i've stood on their shoes
|
that's why i chose... Freedom
|
you've got words, clever jargon
|
self-support, what a bargain
|
you tell me my God is dead
|
you hate a book you've never read
|
telling me i'm pushing you
|
who's world is this,
|
who pushes who?
|
we've had to watch your television
|
subject to your decisions
|
we've read yours books
|
and filled your schools
|
you burned the truth
|
with hate for fuel
|
you calculate your lack of reason
|
i hate this place
|
call it treason
|
Mind for Treason
|
force-feeding lies
|
but calling it freedom
|
masking the truth to hide your dismay
|
turn a blind eye to the death and decay
|
but i will rebel
|
it's treason i choose
|
you can die by yourself
|
but i will refure
|
a word of truth, to worlds of fiction
|
i'd like to challenge your depiction
|
of yours sould and your salvation
|
i'd like to shake you from stagnation
|
you take the nail and drive it through
|
your ear to show allegiance to
|
your god the thing that you love most
|
yourself
|
am i coming close?
|
blind to see your own extinction
|
truth and lies have no distinction
|
shackled slaves must drop their chains
|
or slaves will serve themselves in vain
|
