lyrics

Acted Upon

Staring down the barrel of your future
With a pistol pointed at your past
Don't be fooled into thinking
That any of this is gonna last

Not your safety
Not your freedom
Not your money
Not your time

Not your rights
Not your dignity
Your privacy
Or pride

Portable smokescreen in the palm of your hand
While the war machines roll across the land
(The land of the free)

In the game of life you'll be just a pawn
Unless you act you'll be acted upon
In the game of life don't be a pawn
Stand up and act or be acted upon

Who do you trust, who can you trust
Our leaders dieseased with corruption and lust
What can you do, what can you do
When you're helping the watchmen watch over you

The ones you elect to protect your dreams
They're picking your pockets and running their schemes

Absolute power corrupts absolutely
We've seen it and it's a fact
Time to rise and shine and then absolutely
Take the power back
(In the home of the brave)

In the game of life you'll be just a pawn
Unless you act you'll be acted upon
You get one life and it don't last long
Act out now or be acted upon

If you let others fool you
Into thinking that they rule you
You're not living, just being
Acted Upon

Don't be a pawn
Stand up and act or be acted upon

In the game of life
In the game of life

Stand up now
(Just a pawn, just a pawn)

The land of the free
And the home of the brave
