Hierarchies Lyrics

Hungry were the mobs on his final day

Eager for the feast to begin

Gathering to feed on the crumbs he left

Waiting to descend on him, like vultures

Hidden in his tower the king observed

Shaken by the bites of fear

Bitter in his mouth was the taste of death

When the blade was dropped on him

On the day that illiterates and slaves

Overturned hierarchies to end their shallow ways

Not for long

Fire and flames, let the rage unfold

Open the gates, the divide shall fall

Soon it was announced that another man

Would rule the country based on fear

Promises of rights and of liberties

Were buried by the roar of greedy laughters

Echoed in the circles of new elites

Selfishly pursuing their needs

Plundering the wealth of the ones they failed

Fallen in the hands of

Plutocrats, technocrats, lawyers and speculators

Who built a new hierarchy to serve their shallow ways

Meant to stay

Fire and flames, let the rage unfold

Open the gates, the divide shall fall

Starving were the masses but once again

They would gather to reverse

Orders that were set to their detriment

History repeats itself

Legacy of hope, passed on from generations

Restless and worn

Pursuing liberation

Fire and flames, let the rage unfold

Open the gates, the divide shall fall
