A Masterful Deception

Through these complex, menacing configurations

Orders passed down from operative overlords

Overreaching the bounds of the common good

The mouth of rationality will go unfed

Unless we bear the teeth of a starving beast

And lunge at the throats of these maniacal, reptilian, liars

Manipulation of free will

Resulting in repeated flashes

Of the oncoming apocalypse

Bring forth all of the knowledge for filtration

Release only that which seeks to divide

Radiate the idiocy to secure repeated manifest destiny

Paving paths of trepidation

To wipe away intelligent perspective

Constructing a throne for the devil

Where once stood the center of liberty

An involuntary allegiance

Obey or perish

A sincere confession

Of such a masterful deception

It's time we face the facts

The "good old days" are dead and gone

Buried up to their necks with two in their head

As the definition of freedom continues to constrict

The covenant exists far beyond average arm's length

Privilege after privilege we beckon the elite

Manufactured deceit like rushing water flows

Vomiting forth from the mouths of these suited swine

And with gallows humor we compensate

In an effort to dismantle the fear campaign

Running at the speed of the chaos reigning down upon us

Forming impenetrable circles of protection

Around whatever shallow mythos

We hold closest to our hearts

This world is not our own

Question every moment

Every sip of poisonous air

An involuntary allegiance

Obey or perish

A sincere confession

Of such a masterful deception
