Portrait of Authority (Live)
Nothing more, nothing less An icon on the wall, decoration and duress That which many strive to be It's the marble statue staring over me
And nobody has the will to tear it down It determines wrong and right But to me it's just a stereotype And it makes us lose our sight
The portrait of authority You tell me that's what I'm supposed to be
Another time, another man Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com An oppressive intrusion, a plague across his land And it haunts him every day It tells him that he has no chance, his hopes just fade away
And he lives his life prepared to tear it down But he can't muster the support And to him it's just a stereotype Of his life long fight
The portrait of authority It embodies what he cannot be
