Give and Take

The weight of the world stings The lies, that injustice brings Moral, cultural change While those on high remain Stripped of our rights We strive in vain Who then can we turn to When they don't feel the same? You give then you take Pushed aside, thrown away To whom shall we pray If those we trust we blame Keep selling the news everyday Neutrality stands in the way No longer common ground Agendas abound No voice to sing We bend then brеak Who profits from kings And all the heads of state You givе then you take Pushed aside, thrown away Don't see things our way What's yours to give and take Contracts in breach Betrayed our trust Leave us to waste Ashes to dust You give then you take Pushed aside, thrown away Don't see things our way Won't lend an ear, no time today We've lost our way Shine the light, throughout the night Deciding our fate What's yours to give and take
