Sometimes I feel like a mere pawn in this game of chess
Helpless to find a way out of this mess
How many more years will it take for us to realize
that all we do is sit on our butts and criticize
Crooks, looters and imbeciles will rule our destiny
if we lose the guts to speak against their tyrrany
Blinded by faith, we blame everything on fate
Rise up for action before it gets too late
Even God does not change the destiny of a nation
Whose people don't try to get out of their affliction
They say "United we stand, divided we fall"
Isn't that a lesson for us all?
How deep will we fall before we see the light
that fighting against might is our right.
We point fingers at others for our woes
Naming everyone as our foes
Have we ever looked at ourselves in the mirror
To realize how much we are in error
We abandon our nation asking what it has given us
Have we ever thought of what we have given back?
Broken dreams, empty promises, bubble patriotism
Is all we get to show for our shallow materialism
It seems all doom and gloom, then what stops me from losing hope?
