Soylent Green Lyrics - Iced Earth

The earth has suffered over population 

All our rations have been dominated 

We look to them for answers to our hunger 

Food made from you and i 

Increasing their supply 

The land is stripped and so barren 

Our people must take a stand 

Luxuries passed are now savored 

We can't even live off the land 

Corruption eating us alive 

Our guts are filled with their lies 

Humans controlled and in turmoil 

Defy and you're taken away 

The secret is kept from the people 

Their lives are left to decay 

In line, denied, they've had enough 

No food, no work, they must rise up 

Their greed has left us all for dead 

We are so unaware 

They encourage suicide 

The truth we must unveil 

One man will come to expose them 

He'll be a thorn in their side 

Danger around every corner 

The order must defied 

Descend upon their wickedrule 

People need to know they're fooled 

Nourishment made in a compound 

Sustenance from you and I 

Taken and processed to feed them 

Death will increase their supply 

Swallow their lies you satisfy 

Accept your fate before you die 

Their greed has left us all for dead 

We are so unaware 

They encourage suicide 

The truth we must unveil 

We need to stop them some way, somehow 

The truth was hidden 

From the people until know 

Your final moments are so serene 

It's humans that they're eating, 

It's Soylent Green
