The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

Behind the curtain, what do you see A world of illusion, a false reality They told us a story, but hid the real plan A tale of control in the heart of the land The lion, the man, the tin with no heart All just players in a world torn apart But now we're awake, now we can see The Wizard's world is no fantasy Bark at the curtain, don't turn away The Wizard's lies are on display No more illusions, no more games It's time to rise and break the chains He wanted a brain, but they gave him a name Trapped in the system, never the same A birth certificate sealed his fate All caps fiction, his new estate With a number for a name, he worked till the end No heart or soul, no love to defend Metal and oil where blood should flow The system's pawn, no heart to show He roared so loud, but inside he shook A badge and title, that's all it took They gave him rank, but courage they stole A lion afraid, without control Bark at the curtain, don't turn away The Wizard's lies are on display No more illusions, no more games It's time to rise and break the chains They poisoned the mind, they poisoned the soul Medicine's control, they played their role The Crown's great plan, to numb and deceive The people drugged, no chance to leave Behind the smoke, behind the flame The Wizard's power, just a game No real strength, just tricks and lies The people bow, but never rise Small as he was, Toto barked and fought Pulled back the veil, the Wizard was caught The truth exposed, the lies laid bare A red pill for those who dare Bark at the curtain, don't turn away The Wizard's lies are on display No more illusions, no more games It's time to rise and break the chains The yellow bricks, the lion's roar They weren't just stories, they were something more A tale of power, hidden in plain sight The Wizard's world is our own fight They tried to show us through the smoke But we were blinded by the jokes Behind the magic, they veiled the lore That the system we live in needs to be restored They told us in symbols, in riddles and rhymes That we'd be the ones who'd fall in time A cowardly roar, a brainless plan And a heartless work from a hollow man The Wizard's tricks were no fantasy They were a warning, but we couldn't see A dream turned dark in the light of day But we can still break free, find our way Step back, look again, the signs are clear The land of Oz isn't far, it's here The stories you knew were more than fun They hid the truth, now the work's begun Every character, a piece of the game A map to show us how to reclaim The curtain's torn, the time has come To realize that we're not so dumb Did you think it was just a tale A simple story where all else fails The Wizard knew what we'd need to see A future where we'd fight to be free The smoke and mirrors, the coward's call It's always been about us all Now we know what the message was Stand up, fight back, because of Oz Bark at the curtain, don't turn away The Wizard's lies are on display No more illusions, no more games It's time to rise and break the chains No more lies, no more fear The truth is closer than it appears We'll tear the veil, expose the fraud Take back the power that we once lost Bark at the curtain, don't turn away The Wizard's lies are on display No more illusions, no more games It's time to rise and break the chains Bark at the curtain, don't turn away The Wizard's lies are on display No more illusions, no more games It's time to rise and break the chains
