I don't care about your national anthem
you beast
you savage
who cuts slips of tree
into commodities
you underground villain
who has sold me enslavement
for a salary
you savage
you
who took this sacred Earth
and gave me shoes
so I could not touch its lands
while you make pretty speeches
(Betrayals!)
I am shreds
in your woven lies
you beast you who
is a savage!
this just feels like you
spin me around
you toss me like a game piece
for your pleasure
you who
brands honor
bought and sold
and
laugh your
laugh
at the children of the Earth
and tell them to sing
your national anthem.
