The Backyard Of My Life

Who Can See It?



In a pool of propaganda
They keep you busy so you don't see
Phony politician's a media circus on TV
You better catch up
Before you get left behind
You need to face reality
You need to free your mind

In the streets people protest
While you watch a game show sedated
With cloth ears turning a blind eye
To the toxic waste in the sea
While they pollute the sky
Poor refugee child holding up a sign
Saying stop the war machine
You need to free your mind

So you convince yourself that there all crazy
its a fabrication its a lie
So what if the system is broken
Nobody knows the real reason why
So obey and comply don't rock the boat
Take your things get your coat
While we bury our heads in the sand

From the comfort of your castle
Drinking a big cup of denial
You put your trust in government
They hide behind a fake smile
Never question what the truth is?
Afraid of what you will find
There's a perfect picture forming
You need to free your mind

As they fill your little cranium
With pointless information
To advertise products you don't need
The agenda gains momentum
Slowly picking up speed
Its a hard hand to hold
That is looking for control
Where are they leading human kind?
Observe the world around you
You need to free your mind
You need to free your mind
You need to free your mind
