History

A Poem by Argentaeus

History
It's all a lie
Just another product they want you to buy
A bedtime story by the victors told
While down the river the Truth gets sold
For every war we've won or lost
It's real people who pay the cost
One more thing you may not wish to hear
Our freedom is bought with Death and Fear
It's been said "our species is like a virus"
Swinging on a ball like Miley Cyrus
Defraud our banks and burn our trees
Close our borders to refugees
The individual is all that matters
We sit and watch while Society shatters
Celebrities and neon lights are
Worth far more than human Rights
Wake up to yourself in this moment and sing
The law of our past is a broken thing
You ask yourself why there's so much crime
So many people with a habit stuck doing time
Look at history throughout the years
Even the Fascists had some good ideas
They took the drugs out of the gangsters' hands and
Drove bio-feuled vehicles across the lands but

Even they got the message wrong so let's Sing
One Planet
One Race
One Song
