A

Pawns.

We want to be free,
Like the bees or the birds in the trees.
Why can't this be,
We can't be free, it's not free to be free.
We learn then we earn,
We show no concern while we burn.
Decimate life as we know it,
Pretend we're aware, wear the shoes if they fit.
It's one sticky situation,
We're all guilty by association.
Kept in line with intimidation,
Welcome to life, welcome to the simulation.
Indoctrinated by lies,
We sit back and wait for the blackened skies.
It's just a game of Russian roulette,
Awaiting the end of days, we begin to feel the regret.
Believe everything we see and read,
Slowly realising we could have been freed, we could have fleed.
Controlled by greed and power,
These could be our final days, this could be our final hour.
Humanity needs to flower,
We need to be heard, we need to uprise and take back our power.
