Sovereign

Yeah

Subject to denial of a life worth living

Stain the scope to blind our eyes

We wait with baited breath

Under the weight of societal fate

I seek to put an end to this structure

They said to bide my time so I fall in line

And turn a blind eye to the crimes of late

Then robbed of all that could separate me

From the world outside and the powers that be

Make no mistake

It's a sovereign state

Forced down, denied our severance

Dissipating vision

Aim the arrows at the gates in the face of hate

Holding the weight of our own defeat

We're pushed and pulled apart by this system

They said to bide my time so I fall in line

And turn a blind eye to the crimes of late

Then robbed of all that could separate me

From the world outside and the powers that be

Make no mistake

It's a sovereign state

Our minority

Held under lock and key

Forge your lies in ink

To take us all down when you sink

The worst is yet to come

The driving force is pushing down on us with all its might

But our unbending quest for truth will come to light

Has oppression got the best of us?

Primed for the glory of applause
