Papers signed in shadows dark Trading truth for a lobbyist's spark They pass the bill We pay the toll Selling pieces of the public soul Who's got the pen Who's got the power Who sold the seeds in the midnight hour Bought laws Model bills Written on greed Signed for the thrills They take our voice They take our will Bought laws Model bills The ink's still wet but the deals are old The price is high The story's sold Promises printed Justice erased A system bent A truth displaced Who keeps the keys Who locks the door Who writes the script Then asks for more Bought laws Model bills Written on greed Signed for the thrills They take our voice They take our will Bought laws Model bills 2025 Lyrics by Nikki H. / GenXDreams
