Luxury cars

Passing me by

The vending machine

Of the propaganda is

Selling me patriotism

All a façade

I'm getting out of these fields

To live an infamous life

I'm getting mine

Let 'em know

I'm getting mine

Let 'em know

I'm getting mine

Let 'em know

I'm getting mine…

A honk honk behind ya are my people listening

Poetry is in effect trying to draw your perceptions

As this millennium hits a grand corporal shift

And this perpetual drift brings greater economics

Politics is in a whole new overdrive to bribe

The layman and revive the power to buy

From the Zimbabwean debate to the black US head of state

Democracy the latest commodity at the table of policy

Don't think of condescension listen to what I'm saying

Women becoming presidents without enough influence

THINK! Your attention is being sparred with

The humane battles they took oh so long to address

And suddenly the subtleties are in a finer concentration

The coincidence of Obama and the latest recession…

Yes we can

We can

Told to be bold

Standing in the cold

Scarecrow

Standing for struggles

I do not know

Scarecrow

The irony

I'm standing alone

Scarecrow

Is this really my war

Hell no

I'm a straw man

Raised in a modern world

In the hills of the capital

I can't get any work

A misfit in the midst

Of a capital surge

A vagabond scarecrow

With no maize field to go to

Hey

I'm a straw man

Praised in forgotten words

All I witness is giants

Wilt away my worth

I'm sick to the gut

For years it has been the acknowledgement of man

That the prevalence of harmony is the emergence of a champion

The question is: Who is most fit to govern humanity

For an eternity we've agreed and sucked at unity

Egotism and a cunning diplomacy

Has brought hedonists to being the makers of policies

And to those who lose jobs and really are in need

In Africa you starve unless you live illegally

And… the makers of the greater crime remain in charge

Setting police hounds on the weak and the starved

And they possess the press but they won't ever confess

But then again we are aware of this it's all such a mess

What I pray is in the lands of independence

Where freedom and justice are in uh…

We might all start making a little room

To accommodate the Scarecrows we have forcefully removed

Standing in the cold

Standing for struggles

Is this really my war

Raised in a modern world

In the hills of the capital

I can't get any work

A misfit in the midst

A vagabond scarecrow

With no maize field to go to

Praised in forgotten words

All I witness is giants

A honk honk! Once more is somebody there?

Am I betrayed by the ears of those who claim to care?

The timid big hearted trapped in the pipedreams

Only awakening to perpetrate a similar tyranny

Coz in an environment of a capitalist

The derelicts are the powerless; their voices are pacifists

Whose sympathies are a paralysis

And they cannot be frontrunners for any conviction

Martyrs of a religion are a mythical preaching

Unfortunately cause if juxtapose with consequence

Complements of attempting to overthrow any dominance

To my president and all members of government

My conviction is a bold and simple statement

To the earnest and benevolent continue in perseverance

But I hope the rest of y'all do burn in hell in a penance!

Of the propaganda is

Selling me patriotism

I'm walking out of these fields

To live an infamous life

Standing in the cold

Standing for struggles

Is this really my war

Raised in a modern world

In the hills of the capital

I can't get any work

A misfit in the midst

A vagabond scarecrow

With no maize field to go to

Praised in forgotten words

All I witness is giants

If I don't speak my truth?
