Led on iron leash of lies
with diets of rhetoric
the masses they divide
free thinkers labeled heretic

With opinions that are learned
they're trained like dogs and sheep
I stand tall, alone, unturned
for I look before I leap

Silenced, the alarm now sounds
to exploitation of the sheeple
wake up and look around
I see them as dead people
