Trojan Horse

from The Don by Nyentek

/

lyrics

Promises made with no plans for execution
Say you win the game and you’ll change it all / same old scripts
Paint a scene so nostalgic / it’s an illusion
In reality nobody wins in your game
Your biggest appeal, greatest selling point is you are hateful
The security that you offer me is for white supremacy
Some might say you’re strong, and they’d be wrong / you invent your demons
Lacking leadership, you can’t get a grip / you appeal to people’s fears

You strode in like a shining stallion
But your insides are diseased like carrion

You said you would make us safer, yet you only divide us
You extend your hand to people who don’t deserve trust
You might speak of love, but you never learned more than lust
You’ll erect a tower in your name, and it will only rust
Some would say they’re jockeys, and they thought they could trust you
You said you could run and jump, but now you only graze
Spend your time on your cosmetics / not enough apologetics
Rearing up, you’ve gone from bad to worse / we can see you’re a Trojan horse

You strode in like a shining stallion
But your insides are diseased like carrion
