portait of authority

Lyrics

nothing more nothing less, an icon on the wall decoration and duress, that which many strive to be, its the merble statue standing over me, and nobody has the will to tear it down, it determines wrong and right, but to me its just a stereotype, and it makes us lose our sight, the portait of authority, you tell me, that's what im supposed to be, another time another man, and oppressive intrusion, and a plague across his land, and it haunts him every day, it tells him he has no chance, his hopes just fade away, and he can't muster the support, and to him it's just a stereotype, of his life-long fight
