Dissension

Motivation through intimidation, you get what you want through exploitation.
Of the thoughts and minds of those who try to lead a normal life.
Full of honesty, free of shallow pleas of "I say these things with sincerity."

But you don't mean that, because you don't mean shit.
I know the difference between conscious minds and dollar signs.
Between thoughtful words and boldface lies.
And now I see.
The words you say had a hold on me.
But I broke free from what I used to be.

The teeth of the vice and the fear of what's right.
That didn't fucking let go of me.
And now I see. The truth.
Just because you say it doesn't make it fucking right.
Just because you're stronger doesn't mean that I won't fight.
Just because you're stronger doesn't mean that I won't fight.
