Sentimental Dole

There’s a foe living among us masquerading as a friend 

When you stare into the flashlights you must look to comprehend 

For they want to keep you docile, hence the boot upon your head 

Then they put you in a chokehold, keep you down until your dead

This is mass discrimination on every colour every creed 

For to them you're just a number both the cattle and the feed 

It may be sunny in the country but the sun can come and go

Collective anger in the stomach, there’s still a hunger in the soul

Sentimental Dole

Where is the trust in the truth of equality oh 

Wrapped in a flag and then sold as democracy 

Constant hypocrisy, draw the poison from the wound 

Reversing the blame, no longer a pleb to be played 

Like a pawn in their game

 

There are many banners blowing, being carried by the mob 

Tears forever flowing through the concrete and the sod

And the news provide the static, as reports come flooding in 

About the riots of confusion between the women and the men 

Loneliness the silent killer

Takes and never gives you back

For it steals and cant stop stealing, a twisted kleptomaniac 

Rid yourself of their agenda, wash your spirit with some hope 

See the mad collaborations like De Valera and the Pope

 

Sentimental Dole

Where is the trust in the truth of equality oh 

Wrapped in a flag and then sold as democracy 

Constant hypocrisy, draw the poison from the wound 

Reversing the blame, no longer a pleb to be played


Like a pawn in their game 

No longer a pleb to be played

Like a pawn in their game.
