we build a nation on gold.
we lay foundation.
using cement made of souls.
we throw pocket change at you,
you hope it might pay the rent.

we hope you notice our tricks.
so we can enslave or recruit you,
but you'll never be "in".

We exist in plain sight.
We guise ourselves in importance
"integrity", and might.

We built a white house,
if it doesn't follow our direction
We'll easily tear it down.

We monitor your "homes"
Though meager and uninteresting
We'll catch you should you roam.

We are controlling the world.
You think you get it, you don't.
And you never will, girl.

We use everything to fight against you.
Inflation, taxation, gas prices
Even how much you'll pay during cold season
for a tissue.

We hope you keep accepting.
If you don't look too closely
You'll never notice what we're neglecting.

We hid our ghosts in history.
If you pay attention to the patterns,
you might just learn from me.

What more can I say?
You fell in love with
what you thought was her,
but all you saw were
words on a page.
