Ways of the World Lyrics

They've ascended, overcome with power
It speaks to how they lead their lives
Looking down, from an ivory tower
Their permeating gaze, filled with hate
I find it hard not to feel defeated
Consumed by an impending dread
Blatant lies, they are told as needed
Controlling minds, despite what has been said

A stimulating thought buried in silence
Needs to come alive, or never be heard
So stand alone and rise above the others
Don't let them control the ways of the world
The ways of the world

The answers that I've searched for
Have been here all along
And now I see the real truth
When I finally open my eyes

I'll make my own way
I'll take the lead
Impaired by no deception
I'll never need anything they can
Offer me, just sacrifice
For a better life
Or so they say
But now I know it means nothing
It means nothing

They influence the weak of mind
Lead the lambs to the slaughter
Suffocating limitations
Imposed upon the ones in need

I implicate the ones above
A gross misuse of power
Confronted and taken down
For the betterment of our lives
