Question Each Word
Aiming at the truth
Throwing off the covers 
Pulling back the curtain 
Exposing what’s behind or underneath 
Making the misunderstood become understood 
Showing the populace the true face 
The facts behind the fiction 
They presented to us as standard operating procedure and 
We ate it up 
Like we’d never get another meal 
We ate what they put in front of us 
Sold to our parents after processing 
Sold after they added cheap fillers 
Sold under a banner 
Or a cause
Or a name to be respected 
We need to aim at the truth and 
Uncover the facts on our own
Because Madison Avenue is on their own side, 
Not our side, 
Wall St. is on their own side, 
Not our side and 
Pennsylvania Ave might be the worst of them all 
Question the coherency 
Of the facts we inherited 
Question each word, 
How it’s used to sell or spin 
Whatever they need to sell or spin 
Question each fact and interpret it yourself
Aiming at the truth and 
Pulling back the curtain 
Exposing the lies and misdirection 
To allow your own understandings 
Inside your own brain 
Dismissing all the pathetic rhetoric 
To be left behind 
As you step out front 
Asking question after question after question………
