Speak and let your word fall on deaf ears
The voice of a snake is not worth a cent in the market of words
I see you for what you are you cannot hide
Your words are coated in deceit and lies
You’ve lied to me ever since I was a child
Whispering words I took as law and gold
Turning me against my own folk
A young man striving to please the fold
My naivety to you was sold
But I awoke from my slumber
With rage and regret for my youthful blindness
Now I know you played me for a fool
The blind puppet you used your words to rule
Now my eyes are open to see the truth
Better late than never to give you the boot
