"The People's Soldier"

Thunder rolling in from the distance.
Im growing sick of this feeling
Sick of this storm.
To cast the clouds away,
I know what I must do.
I have the power within me,
As do all of you.
Opening my eyes,
I now see
Through all the lies.
Our minds,
Handicapped by the greedy.
Our eyes,
Sewn shut by these same demons.
But I must fight!
Break these shackles,
Let the sun pierce through the dark clouds
Hanging over my shoulders.
Wake up.
I see.
My fellow beings still sleep,
Keeping the machine of society working
Like clockwork.
Following the herder,
With the rest of the sheople.
I've been there.
I know what it feels like.
To be afraid of the truth,
For it will bring your illusion crashing down.
I will fight for you
Until you wake up.
I will defend you
Until you can do so yourself.
I love you all...
I am your soldier...
