fauxcroft

It does not take much

For people to sell out to greed

I understand those on their knees

How they beg and they plead

But it all falls on deaf ears

Because those with money and power just don’t care

What I can’t understand

Is why sell your principles

For few measly coins here and there

I truly do despair, because life’s not fair

And there are people out there

Who thrown a few coins

And tossed a few lies

And told anyone from outsides not right

And they are sold untruths a fed with national pride

By those who exploit us all the time

Yet they buy the lies

And they buy the line

That those from outside

Will take all that you have

Your job, your house, your women your money

It’s do fucking farsickle it is not even funny

And you buy it all

And you sell your soul

And sell all your principles with ease

It’s so sad to watch

It’s so sad to see

People give up what they believe

In the name of a few extra coins and national pride

In the name that immigration is not right

You pin your flag to that mast

And wonder why I stand and laugh

Even though it’s not funny.
