Mind For Treason

I want to see

all minds set free.

Like slaves to their deaths,

they pledge their liberty.

Like awls through their ears

nailed to a post,

they sold their souls to the things they loved most.

Now they accuse,

my mind is closed,

I've stood in their shoes,

that's why I chose... Freedom



You've got words, clever jargon,

self-support, what a bargain.

You tell me my God is dead,

you hate a book you've never read.

Telling me that I'm pushing you

Who's world is this, who pushes who?

We've had to watch your television,

subject to your decisions

We've read your books,

and filled your schools,

You burned the truth

with hate for fuel.

You calculate your lack of reason.

I hate this place, call it treason.



Mind for Treason,

force-feeding lies,

but calling it freedom.

Masking the truth, to hide your dismay

turn a blind eye to the death and decay.

But I will rebel

it's treason I choose

you can die by yourself,

but I will refuse.



A word of truth to worlds of fiction

I'd like to challenge your depiction,

of your soul and your salvation

I'd like to shake you from stagnation.

You take the nail and drive it through

your ear to show allegiance to

your god the thing that you love most

yourself.

Am I coming close?

Blind to see your own extinction,

truth and lies have no distinction.

Shackled slaves must drop their chains

or slaves will serve themselves in vain.
