It All Started

Chasing shadows down narrow paths
Haunted hallways
Where it all started
Men of power planting their seed
Economic terrorism
Spreading famine and disease
The birth of poverty
Is the birth of the American dream
If you believe in it
Then surely you are sleeping
Stop breathing in lies
Simply daydreaming bullshit
Our children are dying everyday
All over the world death and decay
And it all started here
The source of despair
Poverty
Deprivation
Human suffering
No emancipation
Only a proclamation for the weak
Living in the discarded filth of the world
Swallowing stones for food
Drinking from stagnant pools
No shelter
No home
No love lost for this world
Forever drowning in the depth of debt
Flood waters that never recede
Corruption will always spread
This, the start of our end
The beginning of our death
