In sinister times
We came to be
A darkness occurring
It grows steadily
A fight for existence
For the future and past
This web is so tangled
The corruption is vast
And tension is mounting
It almost has taste
They seem on a clock
And want to make haste
As if there is something
A deadline at play
Something quite big
That’s led them astray
They’re giddy with power
Not a care in the world
Because it’s our freedoms
That will be controlled
~
They don’t even try to hide it

We’re two years in
To the twilight zone
It’s getting quite tense
And close to the bone
So many unsure
Of just what to do
While inch by inch
They tighten the screw
Creating their stage
Where all does seem lost
Ignoring the logic
No care for the cost
Throwing the souls
Off the ship out to sea
The darkest of waters
Where none shall be free
But a beacon of hope
When not all stepped aboard
They followed and waited
Becoming a horde
A thorn in the side
Of this dastardly plan
To change what we are
And see if they can
Hook us all up
To their digital world
Where we are all connected
And will be controlled
~
We’re halfway there already

A need for people
Who are most bold
To wade on through
The ones controlled
Who follow blindly
A fake narrative
Giving up freedom
And a want to live
Because this web
That they have weaved
Needed us all
To be deceived
It’s time and thought
They want to steal
So change the goalposts
Of what is real
It’s been playing out
For quite an age
The foundations were laid
For the grandest stage
To take what we are
And what came before
Making us humans
Just merely folklore

In their strange vision of the future

It’s even stranger
Than we could have feared
Like a hurtling train
That’s not being steered
It’s just so plain
And obviously clear
They want us all
Living in fear
Manufactured
And manipulated
A ridiculous set up
They’ve now created
That we are allowing
And watching unfold
When now is the time
We need to be bold
Just how much longer
Do we follow their lead
Pretending we have to
Instead of this need
To throw it all down
Enough has been done
They’ve got to admit
They had a good run
But who in our history
When proved they have lied
Did ever be graceful
And just step aside
~
Nobody

The tension is building
It almost has taste
While all around us
They’re laying to waste
All that is good
And what came before
Taking and taking
But still wanting more
More of your life
Your time and your thought
They want people fearful
To be scared and distraught
But not all the folk
Are playing their game
Not everyone folded
And took on the shame
Instead, they held firm
And went with their heart
Seeing a darkness
Creep in from the start
Whatever is coming
It seems we can’t hide
So as it gets closer
We each must decide
Just where it is
That we want this to go
There’s no time to dither
And say you don’t know
~
Because if you don’t decide, they will
