Illusion of Freedom

Along the fairway of the Reed Park disc golf course


When I snap back to reality, the calamity of life hits me.
Society looks down on me, so I sneer back; that’s strategy.
See, politicians, big wig riches are stealing my wealth from under me.
And they steal from you, and they always succeed. And it goes unnoticed, such a tragedy.
And it’s sad to see all the thieves go free. ‘Cause if you ask me, that’s piracy.
These hopes and dreams that the government feeds only mislead my family.
My wife and kids can’t afford to eat in this ass-backwards economy.
So I get proceeds from greens and ink, but Uncle Sam says that’s a felony.
Just shut your mouth and hope you’ll be free to see the day you got grand babies.
The weight of the world is all on me, but I’m like fuck it that’s just gravity.
I still believe we will all be free, but not until we see things differently.
Democracy itself needs a reprieve because the system is flawed dramatically.
