The Furious Monks - Veils of Greed
Veils Of Greed
Rise,
resist, it's time to face the facts
Shake the silent chains, take our power back
So rise! (rise) Feel the burn inside
Wake! (wake) Shake the gates of power wide
This so-called freedom's just a gilded lie
Time to stand as one, and reclaim the sky
Have you heard the tale that's goin' round the halls,
the wallet's influence as democracy falls
Every hand that's open,
lined with dollar greens,
silencin' the voices, killin' hopes and dreams
Have you seen the veil, they drape it over eyes,
buyin' up the loyalty with doner lies
It's a grand illusion, a masquerade of power,
selling out the future by the golden hour
Have you heard it loud, the sound of silent cries,
as the social contract before us dies
No more representation, just transactions cold,
where the people's will is something bought and sold
Wake up, wake up, to the capital's game
Where the votes are a currency, and truth's what they maim
They peddle in promise, a trade in deceit
While they dine with the devils and our fates they cheat
Unite! (unite) Tear down the fortress they've built
Stand strong! (stand strong) Unmask the system of guilt
Hear the echo in the chamber where the laws are sold
Empty voices rising, but the truth's untold
On the avenues of power, the wheelers deal
Trading futures for the moment, with a handshake seal
Awake! (awake) To the charade in the daylight
Fight! (fight) In the shadow of their spite
Horns blare, in the streets they flare,
with eyes so blunt and facts to bare
Pinstripe suits with smirks that loot,
the public trust in dark pursuits
Rally! (rally) Forge the chains of justice new
March! (march) In defiance, we'll pursue
Broken dreams in marbled halls,
where whispers trade the people's calls
They dine on power, sip on strife,
in velvet rooms they slash the life
The ballot's illusion,
the lines we've been fed
A democracy's heartbeat,
manipulated, bled
Whispers in the capitol,
shadows lead the dance
Silhouettes of corporate greed,
in democracy's expanse
Promises like ashes, blown away, unseen
As doners pull the strings, in the masquerade serene
Voices rise (rise), crash against the marble walls
Follow the money trail, it's the rich man’s call
Shout! (shout) till the halls of power resound
Clench! (clench) your fists,
let the drums of dissent pound
False prophets in high places,
with their cash creed
Democracy's a puppet show,
they pull the lead
