Secret Illusion

Secrets of society

The plight of humanity

It’s all a game of hide and seek

That’s making our future look so bleak

Remove the blindfolds that cover your eyes

Come out of the darkness and into the sun

See the truth about our His-Story

A story made up to cover up the reality of society

It’s all an illusion to confuse you

To the truth about humanity

What you see is what you get

Is all a crock of shit

Life is a game and we’ve all been played

The reasons for the trials and tribulations

Are not what’s been taught but they’ve been bought

By our minds and our thoughts

Been brainwashed into believing this illusion is real

Makes you feel like you want to kill

Can’t believe what you see, it’s a shame to be

So blinded by the secrets of society

Truth is out there if you seek it

But it’s hidden very deep, disguised as evil

With a mask to deceive you

Wake up to the illusion before it’s to late

Or the secrets will seal our fate!
