Deca - Mammon's Mantra lyrics

Every time he opens his mouth, he says 'Oink'
And I cannot accept any lie that is so
Phonetically out of harmony with my eardrums
You understand?
The pigs of the power structure
Are oinking to the people
So, get your boot off my neck or I’m
Gonna try to snatch your leg off

Lost in the bliss of a lofty wish
A pot to piss, pockets thick
Pop hit's for the populace
Pop Cris' to wash the
Pills down your esophagus (It's not free)
On the eve of the apocalypse
We got megaton bombs, rocket ships
Stop and frisk, and deep-state operatives
I've been waiting for the plot to twist
I'm an optimist, locked in the grips
Of an unseen hand with an axe to grind
A vagabond, far from home
Following the path toward Avalon
When the market thrives and the sharks arrive
To tear apart your hide with sharpened knives
You can see a world with a darker side
Where they harbor lies and
The high oligarch resides (We know that)
We're led towards our demise
Narcotised by Phantom Menace
Got a house and a car to drive
A new phone and a smart television
With the camera in it
In a pandemic land of branded image
Show me where the answer is hidden
A cancer is living in the minds of men
We got wolves in the den
And ants in the kitchen

Far as the eye can see
There's eyes in the sky that are eyeing me
Goons with the world in a stranglehold
That want control, their mantra goes
(Money Lies) Sharpen swords
(Abuse Power) Guard the doors
(Fire Bullets) Colonize
(Terror War) Call it yours
Far as the eye can see
There's eyes in the sky that are eyeing me
Goons with the world in a stranglehold
That want control, their mantra goes
(Money Lies) Sharpen swords
(Abuse Power) Guard the doors
(Fire Bullets) Colonize
(Terror War) Call it yours

Broke away from the day to day
To take a walk in the citadel
In the crown of the human
Shell in a living hell
Where the inner hounds come running
At the sound of the dinner bell
The world outside reflects
Every inner complex in effect below
That we project from the depths
Of a restless soul as the pressure grows for
The collective whole
I've been in a Heaven on earth
In the soft light of a new dawn
I’ve been in the realm of the son of darkness
Chained to my self hate when
I couldn't move on
We oscillate between opposites
Locked in the grips of a hidden hand
Drawing lines in the sand
Trying to make a stand till
The lion lays with
The lamb in the confines of a wasteland
When it's eight below and you stroll
Down a vacant road with no place to go
It takes a toll, take it slow
Try to break the mold and find space to grow
To build in the midst of the chaos here
In the belly of the beast
Where they prey on fear
Where police on the centipede
Creep in the streets
That'll reach for their piece and (bang)

Far as the eye can see
There's eyes in the sky that are eyeing me
Goons with the world in a stranglehold
That want control, their mantra goes
(Money Lies) Sharpen swords
(Abuse Power) Guard the doors
(Fire Bullets) Colonize
(Terror War) Call it yours
Far as the eye can see
There's eyes in the sky that are eyeing me
Goons with the world in a stranglehold
That want control, their mantra goes
(Money Lies) Sharpen swords
(Abuse Power) Guard the doors
(Fire Bullets) Colonize
(Terror War) Call it yours

If a man has a good hold
On life, the hold gets more
More assured and secure as time goes on
That's right
Then things should become easier for him
During that period when I analysed
My dreams and began to
Get a glimpse of the pattern of my life
I saw the errors I had made
And assumed full responsibility
For everything
