Behind the Curtains, No Wizard of Oz (Freedom No More)

[Verse] A new puppet state now dancing to their enemies’ tune Strings pulled tight and they can't break free soon What happened to the dreams they used to hold dear Now they swallow lies that whisper in their ear [Verse 2] A cultivated ego has now grown to full bloom Lost in the reflection of a self-made room Mirror's smile but reality's way too stark Caught in the wheel like a lonely lark [Chorus] Rise up and cut the strings that bind Find your voice don't be confined World keeps turning you're not alone Time to reclaim the seeds you’ve sown [Verse 3] They feed you sweet words while you're blindfolded Making you believe the lines they've molded Break the chains from this velvet glove Step into the light let your spirit shove [Verse 4] Shadows of power in the grand masquerade Dancing in circles where trust is betrayed Painted smiles hide the plotting eyes You're stronger than this stand and defy [Chorus] Rise up and cut the strings that bind Find your voice don't be confined World keeps turning you're not alone Time to reclaim the seeds you’ve sown Now a puppet regime, like so many before. Defend liberty, for soon is too late.
