A Nation of Lies
Suppressing the cries
Muffling the screams
The Land of the Free
What does it mean
The people aren't heard
The children aren't saved
Now the road
To destruction is paved
Spiraling downwards
Losing to fast
The qualms of the nation
That always should last
Equality for all
That's what has been said
But all of these Thoughts
Have been laid to bed
Living by lies
That are told everyday
Now shackled and bound
It's here we must stay
Where none know the truth
But all think we know
And think we must prove
Our thought through a show
So where is the freedom
That's promised to us
If we can't even love
For those whom we lust
What happened to the country?
Well it's no surprise
The Land of the Free
Is A Nation of Lies!
