Illusions

Ok... One of my few Political songs. I wrote this right after Bush got re-elected... I was 19 I think at the time... Maybe 20.

"Illusions"
All lyrics by Grant Walker, All rights reserved

Hail to the thief
They cried from the street
And you, you've taken control
Of what no one should own

Freedom is
Such a colorful Illusion
Painted on
The smog and the pollution
We are slaves
To a walled off street
We're no better
Than the cows and the sheep

And you, You've taken disguise
And you, you made your stocks rise
And doesn't it feel sweet
To take from those who need

Freedom is
Such a colorful Illusion
Lost among the smog and the pollution
We are slaves
To a walled off street
We're no better
Than the cows and the sheep

Hallow have the eagles eyes become
An Iron, and Iron fist... Backed by guns

And time
Has come
For a
A new revolution
One
Last solution
And a
A new constitution
