Thought Control

Onward you march, one by one  
Single file to your graves  
Farther and farther, you're strung out  
Become willing slaves  
Brainwashed until home and loved ones  
You no longer crave  
Erode your will, bite your tongues  
Until nothing remains  

Humans deceiving  
Induce lucid dreaming  
Illusions of freedom  
Only few can see them  
For what they really are  
Punishment and reward  
 
Pavlovian conditioned  
In an oasis imprisoned  
Always cyclic in rythm  
Following restrictions  
 
Never see beyond  
What they've told you to think  
Now you belong  
To your corrupted kings  
 
Kept on tight leashes  
By parasite leeches  
Be that as it may  
You eagerly obey  
 
Break free of your cages  
Cast off the shackles  
Join this war that rages  
On in the shadows  
Turning the pages  
Bring them to the gallows  
Be gone with the age  
Of the selfish and shallow  
 
Materialism  
Determines decisions  
I urge you to listen  
And purge their religion  
For monetary gain  
Their monastaries pray  
 
Avarice's symptoms  
Terminal affliction  
We yearn to evict them  
In perfect unison  
Persistent insistance  
To merge in resistance  
 
To action I call  
Force their backs to the wall  
The law shall be scrawled  
By the last ones to fall
