Dystopia

You fill the ballot out and drop it in the slot to cast your vote You hope the guy who gets elected reads the letters that you wrote He gets in office and he promises to represent your voice You think the system works because most people agreed with your choice But then big players with big checkbook attend meetings with your man They funded his campaign and now they're wanting him to change the plan The special interests of the giants get written into the bill And now we watch our rights get taken away by Capitol Hill Welcome to State-controlled nation, in Dystopia You don't get representation, in Dystopia The law gets passed and this is not what the majority desired One by one, they take your rights away, every time this transpires Take your money then they spend it on things that you don't agree They take your guns away and then build more for their military They took your privacy, it's legal for the government to spy They started PRISM, NSA, the CIA, and FBI They take your money from your bank account if you don't pay their tax Did we vote on that? I'd like to know how that slipped through all the cracks Welcome to State-controlled nation, in Dystopia You don't get representation, in Dystopia You can't have arms or self-defense, in Dystopia And you can't have self-governance, in Dystopia Welcome to State-controlled nation, in Dystopia You don't get representation, in Dystopia You can't have arms or self-defense, in Dystopia And you can't have self-governance, in Dystopia
