Circus
The Hara Lyrics

Clowns commanding crowds
People in power who are treating the masses like a circus act

Used to juggling with toys and their missiles
Those in power have become desensitized to war and its impact on innocent lives

Your delusion can't admit that it's a sacrifice
Those in power refuse to acknowledge the lives they are sacrificing for their own gain

So you gonna push the button on another life
The decision makers in power are willing to sacrifice lives without hesitation

We're freedom fighters we're selling lighters
The oppressed are selling small means of self-expression as a way to fight back against their oppressors

I warn you if you undermine us, we'll start the fires
If the oppressed feel that their cause is threatened, they will retaliate with force

Coz our friends are being wasted on the front lines
The oppressed are losing loved ones due to those in power's decisions

And now you're just polluting all the headlines
The mainstream media is hiding the truth and spreading lies to protect those in power

Smoke covers the sky
The destruction caused by those in power has caused physical damage to the environment

Ring of fire in your eyes
Those in power have a fierce, destructive look in their eyes

This is a circus
The situation has become a spectacle for others to observe, but the consequences are deadly serious

Won't somebody help us
The oppressed need outside assistance to overthrow their oppressors

It's too late for the hopeless
The situation has become so dire that some may believe there is no hope for change

And we're not laughing now
The situation is no longer a joke, it has turned into a life-and-death struggle

You step on the broken
The powerful take advantage of the weak and vulnerable

And you take what you owe us
Those in power have refused to give back what is owed to the oppressed

But we're not laughing
The oppressed are no longer laughing off the abuse they have suffered

We're on a tight rope, can't cope
The oppressed are struggling to survive in a precarious situation

We cut off from the harness and we let go
The oppressed have been forced to sever ties with any means of support and fight alone

Straight into a life boat, that don't float, a sick joke
The oppressed have been given a false sense of hope and security, only to find out it was all a lie

If I choke
If one person in the struggle falls, the others are left vulnerable

You would leave me lying here just waiting for the white coats
The powerful would rather see the oppressed locked away or institutionalized than address the root causes of their struggles

We're irrelevant, in your element,
The oppressed are seen as insignificant in the eyes of those in power

Ignoring the elephant that's in the room cos you're shelling em,
Those in power are ignoring the key issues at hand and instead using violence to suppress dissent

Putting hell in em,
The powerful are making the lives of the oppressed even more difficult through their actions

After telling em that they've got it
Those in power are lying to the oppressed, trying to convince them that everything is fine

Much better than a baby born in Bethlehem
Those in power believe they are superior to even the most revered figures in history

Supermassive lies
The lies being told by those in power are so enormous that they are impossible to ignore

Triple mega fortified
Those in power have gone to great lengths to protect their position and maintain the status quo

You're the ringleader
The leader of those in power is in charge of this 'circus'

The lion tamer
Those in power use fear and intimidation to control the oppressed

Eradicate the wild
Those in power are trying to eliminate any opposition to their rule

And syndicate behind
Those in power are backed by powerful organizations that support them financially and politically

Closed doors
Those in power keep their dealings secret from the public

The ones we bought
The powerful have purchased the loyalty of key individuals and institutions

Make your own folk law
The oppressed are being forced to rebel in order to make their voices heard

It's seams you can do anything you like
Those in power believe that they are untouchable and can act with impunity

We are not your animals
The oppressed refuse to be treated like animals by those in power

Won't keep doing what you want
The oppressed are standing up against those in power and refusing to continue following their orders

Can you hear the rebels loud
The oppressed are making their voices heard and demanding change

Voices can't be tainted now
The oppressed are no longer afraid to speak out and expose the truth

We have come to burn you down
The oppressed are prepared to take drastic action to overthrow those in power and create a better world for themselves
