Lies
Lyrics
Real progress comes when you achieve a certain milestone
That sets the basis for you to embark on a separate goal
But as the story goes, looking back and scoring the times, energy, and resources
Squandered on the way makes me wonder
Will we ever make it past this phase of anarchy and hunger
Sprouting from the unpreparedness of those in power
Feeding lies to a naive mass eager to throw all their beliefs
Outta the window in exchange for some cash
In front of the glass, they close their eyes
Because' they look like Judas
Selling out the sacrifices suffered on their behalf
By ancestors who thought they'd seen a future for us
But heck, of course, we got greedy on some cheap figures
Now nature is taking its course in full force
And not showing a little remorse even to parties uninvolved
In this ugly act of placing amateurs on the shores
Of echelons, a harsh reality has just begun
Cannot keep running dry
Time to make an impact in life
No withdrawing back
Heading to the promised land
What's the best means to curtail the problems of rodents in the house?
Pesticides right? Well, I'll leave you to be. the judge of that
Hold hands, and unify, fight for your dear lives
We were never even a factor in this grand plan of lies
And broad daylight deceit, sick of hearing deceivers speak
On topics destined to stay unfulfilled if it was left for them to foresee
Or bring to reality, I promise the younglings
Would probably be in their seventies before it completes
I wanna see a time where everybody gives an account
Of privileged opportunities rather than delete the history from schools
And somehow try to rewrite the sentiments to taste sweet
And make 'em look like saints
So while you celebrate on the day of your graduation
Or completion of your patriotic service to your nation
I'll be joining faith in praying that you find a space
To practice your profession
Or have the courage to engage in something else
Cannot keep running dry
Time to make an impact in life
No withdrawing back
Heading to the promised land
Hey'o kings and queens
You ever feel low on your sense of responsibility
I hope this puts you right on track
It's HOC yo!
