Power, Politics, And Greed

~By Cindee Naylor


Lies Within Lies, Plans Within Plans
Laws Neatly Intertwined Only Few Comprehend
Truth Cloaked Secrets, Justice Buried With Revenge
Power, Politics, Greed Often Shake The Wrong Hands

Properties Silently Taken Like A Thief Of The Night
Freedoms, Liberties Lost As If A Religious Rite
As The World Turns The War Of Power Continues
Blinded By The Giants Light

The Elite In Their Glass Houses Wearing Many Coats Of Shame
Homeless Dying On The Streets Eroding In The Sea Of Blame
Creative Corporate Fraud The King of The Secret Game

Round And Round The Wheel Of Cover Up Goes
Where The Wheel Stops No One Will Truly Knows
As Colossus Lust Feeds On Power
An Arrogant Vain Ego Begins To Grow
The Monster's Heart Filled With Greed
Gives Birth To A Twisted Malice Soul
