The Man

There’s a man in a business suit
He weilds control over me and you
He raise the tax to buy his grass
He smokes his half and sells half back

All the melting mirror people sink
The say what he says is what they think
And then they fall more and more in debt
He buys apartments when we pay the rent

This man, he says that freedom
Well it’s just Liberty on the loose
This people, he’ll always reach them

This man puts kids behind a lock
He breaks his laws but can’t be caught
United stand, divided fall
He wins our trust to win next fall
