They said it was for a "new world"
For peace and harmony for all of us to share
But the corporations bought out the ideals
And the promises became nothing but an empty word
And we turned a blind eye so we wouldn't show care
Gone are the days of sitting around and talking
Gone are the days of innocence
Noone truly remembers thier past anymore
Governments to the people are balking
Corruption and money mean everything and there is no pentance
The lawyers put the death knell in our freedoms
We walked away thinking somehow we had won
But the only ones who got anything were the lawyers who made the billions
And we watched as corporations became the new Kingdoms
And we sit and watch the tele soour minds can become numb
It's never to late to regain your heritage
Grab hold onto the past and look toward a bright future
The ony thing that we truly have is our ideals and never sell them out
For tomorrow will dawn a new age
And if we don't sell out, perhaps maybe it can still be true and pure

I just love people who use the excuse "I use/do this because I LOVE the feeling/joy/happiness it brings me" and expect you to be ok with that as you watch them destroy their life blindly following. My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
