Wicked World

Thanks to honest journalists we know how the occupations go
how colonies were really run, how parliament is a puppet show
where speaking the truth has consequences, so you let it go
where war lords run the show, cuz politicians long ago sold their soul
where soldiers are ready to sacrifice everything to achieve their goal
where governments openly conduct population control, the 3rd world
live with the illusion of freedom and rights, yeah right, or so we are told
oblivious to the fact that media mold, too late when it is about to unfold  
wealth is a privilege, and hence the rights of the weak you must uphold

look, world leaders gather together shedding crocodile tears
crook, how many innocent people did you kill over the years
you say you want to fight poverty, but you are all millionaires
forgotten are the values and spirit of the historical frontiers
rotten, because who paid the price for these beautiful ideas
hot air, not cuz of global warming, but cuz hypocrites pretend to care
see them walking down the lane, mass murder Hall of Fame
ASK, my nome de guerre, tonight let’s offer a prayer, for those who ain’t here
-ASK
