lyrics

I once felt passion
I once felt pride
But not these 7 years
I have felt anger
And disbelief
All through these 7 years

I once saw vision
I once saw drive
But not these 7 years
I have seen bias
Dishonesty
All through these 7 years

And when it comes to voting
Will the people's vote have changed?
What I'm seeing is displeasing
But are they the things 
People want to see
Reflect society? I don't know
I once saw drive
But not these 7 years

I once heard reason
I once heard truth
But not these 7 years 
I have heard liars
Hypocrisy
All through these 7 years

And when it comes to voting
Will the people's vote have changed?
What I'm hearing is disturbing 
But are they the things 
People want to hear 
People far and near 
Friends and neighbours 
Kith and kin 
Associates and peers?
I don't know
I once heard truth
But not these 7 years
But not these 7 years
Not these 7 years
