Verse 1 They shout freedom, they shout law, But bend the rules when it’s their call. Say the system’s rigged and broken, While counting every word they’ve spoken. One wraps lies in a flag and grin, One locks the vote so he can win. Different flags, same demand: “Power stays in my own hands.” Pre-Chorus When leaders fear the people’s voice, They don’t persuade — they silence choice. Chorus Different names, same playbook, same move, Blame the press, deny the truth. Call it love of country, call it fate, But it’s always fear that drives the hate. Right or left, north or south, Same old lie in a louder mouth. When power won’t let go, Democracy pays the toll. Verse 2 One sells strength, one sells pride, Both say “Only I decide.” Courts get bent, laws get stalled, Loyalty’s the only call. If you question, you’re the enemy, If you doubt, you’re disloyal, see? Truth gets labeled as attack, While the damage stacks and stacks. Pre-Chorus A strongman’s always “just in time,” Right before the line gets crossed. Chorus Different names, same playbook, same move, Blame the press, deny the truth. Wrap yourself in “saving the land,” While breaking every democratic stand. Different accents, same control, Same old hunger for the throne— And every time we look away, We teach them they can stay. Bridge This isn’t red, this isn’t blue, It’s what unchecked power always does to truth. No savior, no chosen one, A nation’s work is never done. Final Chorus Different names, same playbook, same lie, “I alone can justify.” But history’s clear, and so’s the cost: When people sleep, their rights get lost. So hold the line, use your voice, Freedom survives by daily choice. No strongman gets the final say— The people do. That’s the way. Outro Not the loudest voice. Not the richest man. The people decide. That’s the plan.
