VOICES OF A FUTURE

VOICES OF A FUTURE
Political rhetoric I know it is all lies.
Double-speak duplicity, you can read it in the eyes.
See the silver plated squirming of the tongue.
Some sycophant, a corporate slave announces we will bomb.
You feed the World with little wars by selling tyrants arms.
As long as they are subservient, how could there be qualms?
Customers must not fight back. What happens when they do?
Spin a tale of right and wrong and gloss over the truth.
VISIONS AND VOICES OF A BETTER WORLD;
WAR NO MORE. VOICES OF A FUTURE SPEAK
Twisted lies from puppet lips. TV, papers spread the fear.
It's all sewn up, but listen in; Voices of a future are near.
As long as no-one knows, or doesn't dare to ask,
A silver tongue says what it likes. But voices; crack the mask.
Should these voices speak to you, do you think that you might hear?
And if these words might make a thread : Then know that hope is near.
Facades do not last for long. Tyrants fall. That's all.
Voices of a future speak and to us all they call
