the taste of power




 
The taste of power
Once you have it
You will not want to let go
You will try to hold on to it

You can feel it
Flowing through your mind
The command in your words
The life pursuits and condemnation

You will try to bear with it
You will even try to ignore
When you taste the power
You will not want to let go

This is the malady
Of democratic dictatorship
The manipulating of votes
The granting of citizenship

When you taste the power
The evil injects into your soul
You will not want to let go
You know it is true
