Empires Fall Lyrics by Violent Opposition

Courage and Conviction

2016

Power structures corrode, erode
When corruption becomes normal it's exposed
Guard let down, vulnerable
Theft institutionalized
Eats the spine from within
The more thats claimed
The more to protect

Losing support from it's base
Frowned upon with disgrace
The anger of those displaced
The fraud and waste

Nothing but contempt
From years of neglect
No one respects
The establishment
Cover ups and scandals
Nothing to believe in
Embezzling public resources
Using police forces
To lock people in prison
A cruel system

Endless wars for no purpose
Creating enemies of patriots
Systemic inequality
Grows larger and more obvious
Snatch and grab all you can
Loot the land
Before the system's collapse
