Throne Of Corruption Lyrics

In the shadows of the Gilded Age

Political tyrants ruled the stage

Jobs for votes, it's a dirty trade

Corruption's roots are deeply laid

From Tammany Hall to Boss Tweed's reign

Citizens' trust is forever stained

Promises broken, justice delayed

In the land of the free truth is betrayed

Rise up, rise up, against the throne

Where corruption's seeds are sown

In the halls of power sour lies are grown

It should be from here on known

Rise up, rise up, let your voices roar

From the throne delivered, we can't ignore

Where corruption's seeds are sown

In the halls of power sacred lies are grown

Together we stand

We won't be overthrown!!!

Watergate's shadow was Nixon's fall

A president's lies exposed to all

Cover-ups and deceit, a televised nation's call

For truth and justice we all stand tall

From scandals past to the present day

The rot within our system's bowels won't just fade away

Leaders rise and fall but the system stays

In the grip of greed we surely will decay

Rise up, rise up, against the throne

Where corruption's seeds are sown

In the halls of power sour lies are grown

It should be from here on known

Rise up, rise up, let your voices roar

From the throne delivered, we can't ignore

Where corruption's seeds are sown

In the halls of power sacred lies are grown

Together we stand

We won't be overthrown!!!

Corporation politics, it's all a rigged game

Congress selling seats, it's the nation's shame

From rotten boroughs to golden skyscraper fame

The cycle repeats, we lose!!

It's always the same...

Panama Papers, the secrets are unveiled

Wealthy elites see justice derailed

Offshore accounts leave a hidden trail

Trust in our leaders has once again failed

From Flint's water crisis to big pharma opioid lies

Corporate greed destroying countless lives

Promises are broken, as the innocent die

In the name of profit, the suffering they disguise!

Rise up, rise up, against the throne

Where corruption's seeds are sown

In the halls of power sour lies are grown

It should be from here on known

Rise up, rise up, let your voices roar

From the throne delivered, we can't ignore

Where corruption's seeds are sown

In the halls of power sacred lies are grown

Together we stand

We won't be overthrown!!!

Cambridge Analytica, data betrayed

Elections swayed, democracy frayed

Privacy lost, in the games they played

In the digital age the truth is decayed...

From D C lobbying halls to insider trades

The rich get richer as the system degrades

Promises of change are just dime store masquerades,

In the land of the free watch justice delayed!!!

In the ashes of the past we find

A burning rage, a restless mind...

For a future just and unconfined

We'll break the chains, leave the lies behind...
