If you havn't already guessed, Iam a bit pissed with the current state of the world.
The arms race
With greedy hands
Starving people
Across our lands
Capitalist greed
Protect the brand
Exploit the workers
For profit they demand
A crippled health system
Where your wallet is scanned
And generic medicine
In poor countries banned
A biased media
With the news carefully planned
They will sell your opinion
For cash on demand
To educate the masses
Is dismissed out of hand
Because knowledge is freedom
And this they understand
And so it has been
The masses are out manned
The strong rule the world
And true love is banned.
