Autocracy

[Verse 1] You say you hold power, shoot your guns and take cover The world is a chessboard, every pawn’s a lover Blind obedience, shadows creep and loom Every law a chain, every rule a tomb Cameras watching, whispers in the halls Every citizen trapped by invisible walls Judges play gods, and tyrants play kings The courtrooms echo with the lies that they bring [Pre-Chorus] You say it's law for justice Decisions are not subject to constitutional justice [Chorus] Feel the pain of your legal limitations Fall for the intimidations Chains on your mind, control in your hands Autocracy reigns across the lands [Verse 2] Sell peace and quiet for a price on the street Trade freedom for silence, watch the masses repeat Every handshake hides a blade in the dark Every promise a bullet, leaving its mark Cameras watch, your every move’s for sale Laws are a leash, and justice is frail Power in shadows, corruption in bloom The halls of the mighty smell of impending doom [Pre-Chorus] You say it's law for justice Decisions are not subject to constitutional justice [Chorus] Feel the pain of your legal limitations Fall for the intimidations Chains on your mind, control in your hands Autocracy reigns across the lands [Chorus] Feel the pain of your legal limitations Fall for the intimidations Chains on your mind, control in your hands Autocracy reigns across the lands “Obey… or fall. There is no freedom here. Only the law of the powerful.”
