Refugee

By Alchemist




I'm waiting on my fellow inhabitants de-evolution
You know, no more opposeable thumbs
All I see all around is disingenuous revolutions
Everybody speaking in parseltongue
It's ingenious to glorify propaganda
Cattle and sheep moving down the rungs
Indigenous to capitalism's reign
But when the spoils aren't their's
Empires will tax cooperation
Refugee of idiocracy's reins
But let us not in our haste for justice
Allow injustice to breed bitterness in our hearts
Because that will surely seep out
And fester in and effect our organs
Attack our brains and kill our morals
With all the modern knowledge man has obtained
You would think understanding would be more fluent
In our Orwellian world we track ourselves
So let us not fall into the traps we have resolved
Let's make the voice of your reason and conscience
Be louder and more driving
Than any assortment of rhetoric synthesized
In a secret garden under primitive eyes
