about

Corruption has become so commonplace in politics that it’s not only accepted but it’s also expected. In our society’s blind and fierce loyalty to “sides,” we have lost sight of the bigger picture - what is right and who the real enemy is. He who has the most money pulls the strings and those at the highest level feed us distractions to fight about while the puppet masters get what they want and get away with it. Only when we truly stand together will we be strong enough to make the changes necessary to finally be free.

lyrics

Throw us in the pit to watch us fight to the death
They’d end it in a second if it were them instead
So they watch from above without holding their breath
Then they wash their hands clean while the water runs red, oh!
Blood stained history scrubbed out through time
A rotting foundation painted egg shell white
Unsettling smiles behind cookie cutter lies
Shaping graves where the truth gets buried alive

In lies and corruption we trust
Liberty and Justice for some
Divided we stand
Together we fall to dust
In corruption we trust

They say money talks but people whisper
Get a handshake with a green piece of paper
For a job well done but it won’t mean nothin
Blows away in the wind if you don’t have enough of it
They print the bricks for their fortress, sheet by sheet
Build the walls nice and tall make sure that you can’t peek
Try to burn it all down with the fire that we breathe
But the goldest of the treasure is the secrets that they keep

In lies and corruption we trust
Liberty and Justice for some
Divided we stand
Together we fall to dust
In corruption we trust

Designing the rules they break behind the scenes
Creeping in the shadows where the back doors lead
All our life’s work’s just a number on a screen
We burn the midnight oil while they get their beauty sleep, oh!
Mind numbing media, hypnotized by tv
Sedated by the white lies of the “justice” we see
Try to silence all the rebels in a cage of poverty
So we’ll scream the Revolution in the rhymes we sing

In lies and corruption we trust
Liberty and Justice for some
Divided we stand
Together we fall to dust
In corruption we trust
In lies and corruption we trust
Liberty and Justice for some
Divided we stand
Together we fall to dust
In corruption we trust
In corruption we trust
In corruption we trust
In corruption we trust.
