Every day we wake to do what were told
Think the way someone better than me decided
Constantly guided to do what is best
Buy a car, drive it right or we take it away
Buy a home and some land
Just have a permit before you make it yours
Make sure you trim the grass and don't be bad or we will take it away.
Choose your words wisely as it's your freedom
Say what's on your mind and we will lock you up
Stand up for yourself in the proper way or you lose your freedom
When did we agree to these chains
Freedom is the greatest lie
Myth of legend, masterwork in deception
The sheep see the field and not the pen
Born with a collar of restrictions
Race, color and creed it's all the same here's your ID get in line
Struggle in vain before the sea of sleeping automatons.
It's OK it's just modern slavery
Think for yourself, just not this way
Man and woman don't exist, we say so
You are free when we decide it
You can love who you choose when permitted
Did you pay the fee
Born into debt, live to make more, die for a fee and let your progeny settle the tab.
Always a reason to be found for more civility and restriction
Planet is warming no more gas for you
What are you eating it best be green
Science is just a suggestion let ideas and machinations decide.
When did we agree to these chains
Freedom is the greatest lie
Myth of legend, masterwork in deception
The sheep see the field and not the pen
Born with a collar of restrictions
Race, color and creed it's all the same here's your ID get in line
Struggle in vain before the sea of sleeping automatons.
It's OK it's just modern slavery
We fight when we are told like our fathers did.
Spilling blood and burning it all for a man's idea
Dumbed down sedated docile people everywhere
Controlled and subdued with baubles and promises.
Drowning in regulation imposed by tiered systems disguised as free governance.
Tyranny refined the wolf has infiltrated the flock
Manipulated at every turn, used and discarded with no remorse or consequence.
When did we agree to these chains
Freedom is the greatest lie
Myth of legend, masterwork in deception
The sheep see the field and not the pen
Born with a collar of restrictions
Race, color and creed it's all the same here's your ID get in line
Struggle in vain before the sea of sleeping automatons.
It's OK it's just modern slavery
