Don't Be A Pawn
They'll dress you in a uniform, make you feel so proud
March you to the front lines where screams are not allowed
Behind closed doors, they're trading coins for blood
While you stand there fighting, drowning in the flood
Wake up, can't you see the strings they pull?
Don't be a pawn in their chess game, step away
Your honour's not for sale, don't let them lead you astray
They'll watch you fight for dreams, that keep them blind
Stand up for your own life, leave the chains behind
They tell you it's for glory, for freedom's bright embrace
But in the shadows hide the truth they'll never face
Politicians safe at home, stacking up their gold
While we're out here risking life, those stories left untold
Your life's a game for marks, so don't play their fool
Don't be a pawn in their chess game, step away
Your honour's not for sale, don't let them lead you astray
They'll watch you fight for dreams, that keep them blind
Stand up for your own life, leave the chains behind
Wake up, can't you see the strings they pull?
Don't be a pawn in their chess game, step away
Your honour's not for sale, don't let them lead you astray
They'll watch you fight for dreams, they'll keep them blind
While you stand up for dreams, that keep them blind
Stand up for your own life, leave the chains behind
You're more than just a tool in their twisted play
Break free, find your light, don't let them take your day
They'll watch you fight for dreams, that keep them blind
March you to the front lines where screams are not allowed
Behind closed doors, they're trading coins for blood
While you stand there fighting, drowning in the flood
Wake up, can't you see the strings they pull?
Don't be a pawn in their chess game, step away
Your honour's not for sale, don't let them lead you astray
They'll watch you fight for dreams, that keep them blind
Stand up for your own life, leave the chains behind
They tell you it's for glory, for freedom's bright embrace
But in the shadows hide the truth they'll never face
Politicians safe at home, stacking up their gold
While we're out here risking life, those stories left untold
Your life's a game for marks, so don't play their fool
Don't be a pawn in their chess game, step away
Your honour's not for sale, don't let them lead you astray
They'll watch you fight for dreams, that keep them blind
Stand up for your own life, leave the chains behind
Wake up, can't you see the strings they pull?
Don't be a pawn in their chess game, step away
Your honour's not for sale, don't let them lead you astray
They'll watch you fight for dreams, they'll keep them blind
While you stand up for dreams, that keep them blind
Stand up for your own life, leave the chains behind
You're more than just a tool in their twisted play
Break free, find your light, don't let them take your day
They'll watch you fight for dreams, that keep them blind
