[Verse 1]
C
God made man and man made kings
C
And the kings rule man and they bring the suffering
C
When the people rise up, they see it as defiant
C
They wanna have control so you can't be self-reliant
F
If you play your role and don't get out of line
F
If you seel your soul they will buy it for a dime
C
And sell it for a dollar, so they can turn a profit
C
It's a vicious cycle and the only way to stop it

[Verse 2]
C
They run the drugs so they make all the money
C
That they're busy printin' up like a bee makin' honey
C
They hide in the shadows, call themselves enlightened
C
While all the people's shackles are slowly getting tightened
F
If we're not locked up We're starving in the streets
F
Full bellies getting fat while the weak are getting weaker
C
Politicians out to line their pockets
C
It's a vicious cycle and the only way to stop it
