The great delusion
The strongest are naturally selected
Aligned in rows and injected
Subordinates in training for the future ahead
Conditioned as workers and chemically bred
A selected selection seduces their style
Perfectly perfected and programmed to smile
Controlled education force-fed to a child
So auto suggestion controls them awhile
Pre-emptive assaults on the life of civilians
The filthy rich murder then hide behind millions
The populace gobbles down misinformation
Those who dare question get alienated
The path to fulfillment is littered with games
Preacher's known only to guide us to flames
We trust the media to speak to our minds
Ignorance building is no longer a crime
Our well-being sabotaged and openly infested
They want us home sick and medicine dependent
Those who need help are no longer protected
The laws made to punish because crime's an investment
Democracy and moral laws don't exist
We give them our money and receive bytes and bits
Your freedom of speech is a freedom to think
But openly use it and you might just get lynched
In front of our faces and outside that door
It's hard to imagine we're inside a war
If you sit and ponder on these words too long
You will come to know there's something going on

Overblown indigested delusions of egotistical self raucousness
Slowly manifests itself to the realms of paranoia
by Adam Smith
What's going on?
As terror rises
And fear abounds
I must ask myself
What's going on?
And What's going down?
I look around
by Pamela Folks
Whats going on?
I almost laugh at that question.
Whats going on with us right now?
Okay...well, first you left.
