This is a song idea I had dormant for a while without vocals and finally figured out something. Feedback welcome - I am somewhat inspired by Disturbed a little and the new Avenged Sevenfold album, but cannot get close on the vocals as he is fricking awesome. I tried out EZX Metal Machine on this and think it works well.
Feedback welcome.

JONATHAN LINTON – THE SYSTEM
(Words by Jonathan Linton, Music by Jonathan Linton)
Those in power have us under control
Live mindless souls livin’ in a fishbowl
You can fool some people some of the time
You can’t fool all people all of the time
The time has now come
Enough! We are done
Social media’s won
Change has begun
We will fight against
We will oppose
We’re tired and we’re worn
But we’re fighting the system
Broken bureaucracy
We will dispose
A new day will dawn
From fighting the system
Enjoy your fat happy life while you can
Beginning of your destruction has began
Smart phones in hand, there’s a wildfire protest
Burning desire to not be oppressed
The time has now come
Enough! We are done
Social media’s won
Change has begun
We will fight against
We will oppose
We’re tired and we’re worn
But we’re fighting the system
Broken bureaucracy
We will dispose
We’re tired and we’re worn
But we’re fighting the system
SOLO
We will fight against
We will oppose
We’re tired and we’re worn
But we’re fighting the system
Broken bureaucracy
We will dispose
A new day will dawn
From fighting the system
Feedback welcome.
