Iced Earth - Soylent Green lyrics

rate me

The earth has suffered over population

All our rations have been dominated

We look to them for answers to our hunger

Food made from you and I

Increasing their supply

The land is stripped and so barren

Our people must take a stand

Luxuries passed are now savored

We can't even live off the land

Corruption eating us alive

Our guts are filled with their lies

Humans controlled and in turmoil

Defy and you're taken away

The secret is kept from the people

Their lives are left to decay

In line, denied, they've had enough

No food, no work, they must rise up

Their greed has left us all for dead

We are so unaware

They encourage suicide

The truth we must unveil

One man will come to expose them

He'll be a thorn in their side

Danger around every corner

The order must defied

Descend upon their wickedrule

People need to know they're fooled

Nourishment made in a compound

Sustenance from you and I

Taken and processed tgo feed them

Death will increase their supply

Swallow their lies you satisfy

Accept your fate before you die

Their greed has left us all for dead

We are so unaware

They encourage suicide

The truth we must unveil

We need to stop them some way, somehow

The truth was hidden

From the people until know

Your final moments are so serene

It's humans that they're eating,

It's Soylent Green
