Market Manipulation
Hanging onto every word I say
Stock markets are the games I play
Charts are shown in my big speech
Calculations and formulas for deceit
Tariffs in place, everyone sells
I sold short, I'm doing well
As markets crash the world burns
A perfect plan, I'm not concerned
Trillions gone, up in smoke
Your life savings, it's no joke
Money transferred from you to me
This shadowy grift...
Stock markets are the games I play
Charts are shown in my big speech
Calculations and formulas for deceit
Tariffs in place, everyone sells
I sold short, I'm doing well
As markets crash the world burns
A perfect plan, I'm not concerned
Trillions gone, up in smoke
Your life savings, it's no joke
Money transferred from you to me
This shadowy grift...

So True
I'm a line of credit,
With no real value.
I open an account,
So I can devalue.
This fiat money,
Holds nothing true.
Just harassment and entrapment,
And lawsuits.
One day I'll wake up,
And subdue you.
You're my true currency,
And I pursue you.
With no real value.
I open an account,
So I can devalue.
This fiat money,
Holds nothing true.
Just harassment and entrapment,
And lawsuits.
One day I'll wake up,
And subdue you.
You're my true currency,
And I pursue you.

Sever The Cord...Severe The Cut
For the dead don't die & demons don't need a ceiling to uplift the one they decided to pick & take. Crawling in the shadows, a mind's enemy of the night. For the devil's, the tricksters, the nightmares of blindfold insecurities...Chewing the chain of sewn thread tightly wove to have a blind eye. For fear of submerging depths of suffocating, hyperventilating results...show's the dealer your poker hand's deal. In a room of never fathom of entry. A room beyond ever wanting to walk over this dark threshold of entrance. A room thugs & drugs...Lined along the wall. A man of any color at...

The Real Enemy
You’d best chain those super-rich before they chain you.
But oh, my dears, you’re too busy fussing and fighting
with each other to take notice of what they’re up to.
They’ve got all the money.
Or they’ve got control of all the money.
They—or the public relations strategists who work for them—
started all the fusses, all the fights.
They set all the fires.
And you got spooked, hooked, hoodwinked by one or more of the various traumas
they’ve cooked up to distract you,
the various conflagrations they’ve arsoned—real or...

Presumed hunger
Premeditated situations
and pre-cooked annihilations.
Preheated eliminations,
precepts, losses, predators,
nothing changes the colors of poverty.
Chameleons are the rich ones
and they change, change color
and change again to a color they don't have.
The rich eat poverty for breakfast
so let's change directions,
change emotions,
and let's eat the rich
even though the rich are poor
in nutrients and proteins.
Since they have many colors,
we will eat them with our eyes
and season them...

Conflagration
I was roused from sleep that night,
an awakening that was
like the jab of a nightmare.
With heart pounding, I wobbled
toward the door, then I stopped—
the commotion was outside.
Cautious now, I creaked it
open and sirens rushed in.
Barefoot on spiky, wet grass,
I reached the fence and tiptoed,
I felt the heat on my face
saw the skyline set aflame.
America is burning.
an awakening that was
like the jab of a nightmare.
With heart pounding, I wobbled
toward the door, then I stopped—

Cautious now, I creaked it

Barefoot on spiky, wet grass,
I reached the fence and tiptoed,
I felt the heat on my face
saw the skyline set aflame.

Truths we would like to hear
How refreshing would it be if we heard a politician say:
I don't believe in God and I don't believe in the protection and welfare of our citizens, their health & their safety
I plan on placing my friends in executive positions
I will pocket what funds I can get away with, but see that the rest is spent on my election
You will have no voice in my decisions any more then you ever had
You will have to accept my judgement, which you will have no choice
If I succeed in fooling the public, the public will have themselves to blame...

How The Mighty Had Fallen
Oh; how the mighty had fallen
Once a lion; now barely crawling
A land where rivers of wealth once flowed
Now cracked with hunger; dreams corrode
They sold our gold for a bowl of dust
Fed us lies and broke our trust
Once the Giant; tall and proud
Now we kneel; heads bowed
The king feasts while beggars wail
The throne is built on chains and nails
They buy mansions across the sea
While we drown in poverty
They raise the tax; inflate the price
Turn our sweat to sacrifice
A day's wage won’t buy a meal ...
Once a lion; now barely crawling
A land where rivers of wealth once flowed
Now cracked with hunger; dreams corrode
They sold our gold for a bowl of dust
Fed us lies and broke our trust
Once the Giant; tall and proud
Now we kneel; heads bowed
The king feasts while beggars wail
The throne is built on chains and nails
They buy mansions across the sea
While we drown in poverty
They raise the tax; inflate the price
Turn our sweat to sacrifice
A day's wage won’t buy a meal ...

Anti-Establishment
Just beyond the Verizon I foresee
Our veins will become circuitry
Mindless drones consuming the disease in denial
No original thought process in their empty minds
Just blind leading the blind
Not serving a purpose
Only purposely serving on their knees
Kill your gods
Kill your governments
Freedom exists only in the mind
The mind is a weapon you should wield
Should you choose to ignore the blueprint facade
You will succumb the the programing of a false god and government
They plot for total domination ...
Our veins will become circuitry
Mindless drones consuming the disease in denial
No original thought process in their empty minds
Just blind leading the blind
Not serving a purpose
Only purposely serving on their knees
Kill your gods
Kill your governments
Freedom exists only in the mind
The mind is a weapon you should wield
Should you choose to ignore the blueprint facade
You will succumb the the programing of a false god and government
They plot for total domination ...

Disguised Dictatorship
Reign of corruption
Democracy came to an end
Money for justice
Blinded by the government
Vultures overflying
Waiting death of society
Death by the government
Maniac ideology spreading blood!!
Dictatorship disguised
Growing up on their lies
Brainwashing decadent minds
Hidden the truth of our eyes
Hiding the murders
Guilty without guiltiness
Rotten state
Rapist of justice and liberty
Bloodstained
Wrong-way of democracy
Ruling through fear
Amorphous equality painted with blood!!

Upper-Class Low-Life
There's nothing I would do for you
You're a real scum bag
All you do is nag
Kiss my ass you goddamn fool
Go fuck yourself and I'll fuck your wife too!
The pile of shit is decorated for you to consume
Degradation
Accept the invitation
Your a shit sucking butt fucking disaster, now go to your room
Lick the dick you inherited between your ass cheeks!
Your nose is deep up corporate's ass
Are you his puppy?
I hate yuppies
Nobody gets a free pass
You look pathetic enough to...
You're a real scum bag
All you do is nag
Kiss my ass you goddamn fool
Go fuck yourself and I'll fuck your wife too!
The pile of shit is decorated for you to consume
Degradation
Accept the invitation
Your a shit sucking butt fucking disaster, now go to your room
Lick the dick you inherited between your ass cheeks!
Your nose is deep up corporate's ass
Are you his puppy?

Garden of Eden
Snakes slither on concrete when the grass is cut
They appear in human form with smiling faces
Devious lies laced with deceitful eyes
Sinful minds plot on innocent souls
Presenting them with the forbidden fruit
Money, drugs, sex and fame
All enticing entities that will destroy your self identity
Take a bite of it and realize the sweet sensation isn’t worth the bitter aftertaste.
They appear in human form with smiling faces
