The Lies of Statist Prophets

We desire to be led, as many societies do
By one who demands attention, and desires awe
He rules through division and demand for walls
Statist prophets tell us in order to have any future
Need to embrace the past but are ignorant of it all
Without nuance, the past offers suggests only the sewer
We neither understand our violent past nor hear her call
We are fools, beasts of burden and choose our Fuhrer
Crushing institutions of learning, by the ignorant spawn
Foundations break under weight of cancerous tumors
Our ego demands to be satisfied, as we embrace lies
We ignore the truth, as we collapse and fall
Take us back to the 120 Days of Sodom
Society is ready to burn, so light the fire
Let us destroy everything we treasure,
Every single monument that you desire
Burn the books, destroy our children
Choose the dysfunction, listen to liars
So forget the past, start a new society
Mock the wise, ignore the truth
Ignore all of your trusted values
Cast aside your naive piety
Look off to the distant horizon
And wait for the next strong man
He'll tell you how to make you great
Or make you great again
