War and slavery, exploitation 

The common faces of the western nations 

Official version, a falsified story 

The truth lies buried in a shroud of glory 



Influential people aren't serving time 

For being involved in organized crime 

But stashed away in beautiful mansions 

Guess who provides for their generous pensions? 



Oppression, ignorance, censorship rule 

Education is more than what's taught in school 

Forced in the mold, held down by threats 

Decisions are made over our heads 



But there is a way to refuse and resist 

We don't need to be ruled with the iron fist 

We are the people, we are strong 

Let's make up our minds and call them wrong 



Black man, white man, yellow man 

Rip the system 



Religion and TV, we're under the thumb 

Grown to believe because we're already numb
