At some turning point in history,

some $#&@face recognized that knowledge tends to democratize cultures and societies


so the only thing to do was monopolize and confine it to priests,


clerics and elites (the rest resigned to serve),

cuz if the rabble heard the truth they'd organize against the power,


privilege and wealth hoarded by the few for no one else.


And did it occur to you that it's almost exactly the same today?

And so if our schools won't teach us,


we'll have to teach ourselves to !@#^yze and understand the systems of thoughtcontrol.


And share it with each other,

never sayed by brass rings or the threat of penalty.


I'll promise you you promise me


not to sell each other out to murderers, to thieves...

who've manufactured our delusion that you and me participate meaningfully


in the process of running our own lives.


Yeah, you can vote however the $#&@ you want,

but power still calls all the shots.


And believe it or not, even if (real) democracy broke loose,


power could/would just "make the economy scream" until we vote responsibly.
