Don't Let'em Lie

Don't Let'em Lie

It's the exact same story, over and over again throughout history
People in power telling us what to do , and what to believe, for their own selfish reasons
Are we really just gonna sit here and play along?
Cause they're counting on that
And deep down we know what we have to do

Chorus

Don't let 'em lie to you
Don't let 'em lie to you.....
   no more
(Don't let 'em tell you it'll be alright)
You better learn the truth
Don't let 'em lie to you.....
   no more, no more, no more
(Don't believe 'em when they sy it's gonna be alright)

We're like dead men standing on the side of the road
We've got our boots laced up but nowhere to go
With nothing left to lose, we're ready to sell our souls
cause we know
That the target is small, when we're chasing our dreams
We shake hands with the devil, and pray for wings
And the mirror gets cracked, as the pressure takes it toll

Chorus

We all need to wake up and take a look around right now
Cause believe me when I tell you,
Ignorance is not bliss, ignorance is not bliss

There's a man in a collar with a hollow stare
Put your money on the plate and then say your prayers
While the children pay the price for the unaware,
        the signs, were there
Meanwhile, there's a man put in jail for weed
Cause that's easier to watch, than innocence bleed
Tell us all to repent, while the pharisees go free

Prime-time news, with the truth for sale
It's the new third reich, with a thicker veil
Propaganda programmed as a fairy tale
Free speech, has failed
As the politicians lobby for the right to brag
All the rest of the world, is left holding the bag
And our consolation prize, is a pretty new toe tag

Chorus

Attention, attention
This is not a test
Exit the area immediately

With manufactured pestilence & famine for war
Death rides in on a pale, white horse
As hell follows with him wake up and lock the door

While the tides rise up with a venomous plague
All the guilty corporations try to pass the blame
It's a new kind of crisis but the story stays the same

Chorus

Chorus

I know what you're thinking
I know what you're feeling
I am just the same as you

Use your common sense
Stop sitting on the fence
Eventually you have to choose
