Placed at the top for what is supposed to be our best interest.
Once there they seem to lose interest in our interests.
A cycle that repeats infinitely.
Given power by the people but working for themselves.

Painting their faces with smiles to impress.
Each telling lies to be perceived as the best.
Defamation of those who oppose them is second nature.
This is the façade we call campaign.

When one finally wins the corruption begins.
Forgotten are their promises when their pockets are lined.
The people who gave them their power now mean nothing to them.
Only for their own wealth are they concerned.

These are the people who lead us.
Conmen clad in suits in ties.
Never shall I trust their disguise.
