Theme
A quintessential Megadeth political anthem focused on themes of conspiracy, government control, and the fight for freedom. The lyrics warn of a creeping **'New World Order'** that will deny rights and introduce a 'mark' (a reference to the Mark of the Beast) for control. The chorus is a rallying cry where **'We the people'** take back sovereignty and fight for liberty.
Lyrics
Secret bureaucracy, it's just a lie
The devil's henchmen, in suit and tie
A sacred brotherhood; an ancient rite
Politicians and the double lives they hide
Violate your rights, no more equality
Surrender freedom, your social security
We, the people face unconstitutional lies
In greed we trust, in revolution we die
Our founding fathers are rolling in their graves
The land of liberty needs a regime change
Until you no longer know right from wrong
The constitution isn't worth the paper it's written on
Screams from the future, warn of calamity
The coming plagues of the new disease
The illuminati, one world currency
One world religion, one world everything
