Despot

Smile that crooked smile When you watch them crawl Between the dark and the fright Put on a warm coat When you drive them out Into the cold and bitter night Go on sell our bodies down a river Go on sell them by the million Bulldoze down their homes Then you can drive them out Sell their land for a song They carry the weight of the world But you cut them down Burn their houses to the ground Go on sell our bodies down a river Go on sell them by the million Fancy food and wine While your people starve, Brushed aside by your pride When they hunt you down Will you stand and fight Will you shift the blame Do you see the light Can you heal their pain Do you feel their shame Will you make amends Or will you walk away Will you try to forgive?
