who would bear malice.
Hold to ransom, bring to harm,
Dominate subordinate.
For power, cash or simple hate.
Your reputation does precede you,
The epic tales of all the greed you
Stole and stored.
All the human beings you whored.
All the lives that you have sold.
The lies the Children have been told.
The great technicians of the ages
Have splattered the bile across historys pages.
With wood and with Iron and atoms and will.
Crafting destruction with infinite skill.
Sure of the accurate aim of the mission.
To kill, to dismember to slaughter to render
The inhumane cries of the tortured,remember,
How bloodletting curdles the future, and lies,
Make cosy excuses that cover our eyes.
From the depths of depravity deep in the harm
By those of us who would bear arms.
To those of us who would claim the lands, would claim the oceans
Close them keep them, name them, treat them
With callous scorn and disrespect.
Leave them poisoned foul and wrecked.
Beyond the reach of those who care,
For the warmth in the sun and the breath in the air.
The property you're passing on
Harbours the truth of all the wrongs you never righted
Those you displaced, the lives you blighted.
The conquerors of historys pages
Have laid the bonds across the ages.
With mandates, covenants and deeds.
Spread ownership like infectious disease.
In cut crystal glass houses, built on guilt
And other peoples sweat,other peoples labour,
Other peoples time, how you sip and how you savour
Your ill gotten gatins
Your miscreant profits
Your trust funds and shares
Your profits, our losses
The miscreants you breed
The earth that you damned
When you hounded the people from the land.
