Shock and Awe

As we watch… You say anything you please
And we watch… You don’t have to believe
And we watch… As your power corrupts
And we know… Your paranoid and distrust

As we shout… You use a God’s name
And we shout… For your own perverse gain
And we shout… As your ego makes choices
And we know… Your plans are born of psychosis

As we march… Your followers obey
And we march… Listening to lies you say
And we march… They believe your propaganda
And we know… Their hatred and their anger

It’s not about freedom, it’s control and privilege
Your arrogance your vanity, your conceited image

You bully and tease, you break the law
A game for the insane, of ‘Shock and Awe’

As we pray… You conceive your spin
And we pray… You intimidate to win
And we pray… You trick others to fall
And we know… You aren’t that smart at all

It’s not about freedom, it’s control and privilege
Your arrogance your pride, your conceited image

You bully and tease, you break the law
A game for the insane, of ‘Shock and Awe’

You’re making it up, for your TV show
Controlling the narrative, where realities forgo
Choosing to be blinkered, not trying to inspire
And the world watches on, at the end of an empire

Just lies upon lies, you bury the truth
Your incestuous flaws, in ‘Shock and Awe’
