Antichism - Elements Of Oppression lyrics

rate me

Our leaders write the roles from behind masked faces<br />

Always hiding the reality of their true intentions<br />

And like puppets we act out the roles<br />

Of a tragedy that never ends<br />

And the plot always thickens as the death rate quickens<br />

And the human soul sickens with war always the means to the end<br />

So how many times must Rome burn<br />

Before the crucial lesson of history is learned?<br />

Power kills, destroy everything that power builds<br />

<br />

You're sucked into place by your own admittance<br />

Self imposed enslavement<br />

And though you curse your king how can it mean anything<br />

When you worship cult of leadership?<br />

It takes only one to lead but must the rest of us follow?<br />

The whole is but the sum of it's parts<br />

Do you act that part? Do you fit that part?<br />

And how many times will we rebuild Rome<br />

Only to watch it burn?<br />

Power is death<br />

Power is Death<br />

<br />

These are the elements<br />

<br />

Of oppression!
