The wind cries greed and is
growing into a devastating storm
as it blows the flames towards
a hill that once used to be an island
before imported roots dried out the river
The trees whisper corruption while
their ancestors arrive at a sawmill
Paper barons weighing their gold and
the way they’re ripping the ark of its timber
makes bending branches stop to quiver
Politicians shout economic growth and
are designing a heaven for the elite
Meanwhile preparing for the kill of
all that’s free and naturally theirs, who are
depending on charity from a fake almsgiver
Slaves believing to be free and
part of a superior movement that
will lead them to daily life fortune
are helping their populist masters
cutting down the only trees capable to deliver
