Like a river among a flood of oceans

We follow a stream straight in a line

Losing our personalities and becoming inhumane

We sit down with strangers and then we dine

Are we crazy?

Living our life through a lens

Gluing on our rose tinted glasses

Living with foxes in their dens

Scrumptious lies are what they feed us

Like children, we are being led astray

Poisoning our mind like an infected pus

The ones whom we love, they are making us betray

Our beliefs now not our own

We speak words they have planted and grown

Our bodies like robots, are being used

Our ability to think has been diffused

Twisting the plots of our lives around

We are mere bodies with our souls controlled

They have our mind and our tongues tightly bound

The rope pulling us puppets round and round'

How can we break free from this madness?

Cut these strings that are borderline poisonous?

Run away from a world to be who we are meant to be

Or do we have to ask now, to be you and me?

For what are we if not ourselves

Ornaments set decoratively on house shelves?

Rise up or you will be lowered down

Not in this world, but in your grave underground

Speak up, or you will die mute

All your work in vain, bearing no fruit

We are humans, not meant to be tamed

We were born to rule

We can not be enslaved
