The days where you were respected have become a memory
But it’s going to take a century to expunge all the damage you’ve done
And rewrite the wrongs that you’ve held as a nation of conviction
The world looks with weary eyes as the skyscrapers climb
In the name of bombs dropping, wall street journalism, and cash flow
The initiative that everyone is judged by the actions of corrupted officials
Humanity ruined in the eyes of offspring growing into a world of detestation
The silence of the unvoiced majority grows louder as the streets crowd
We are not the same and we are not part of the hidden agenda
Of world ********** civil suppression, and authoritative tyranny

The silence of the unvoiced majority grows louder as the streets crowd
We are not the same and we are not part of the hidden agenda
