[Verse]
Blood on the hands of the power-thirsty
Shadows creep where the light should be
Promises whispered but they never stay
Freedom's a word they stole away

[Chorus]
Chains of gold and fear
Hold us close keep us near
Lies they sell control the air
They don't see us they don't care

[Verse 2]
Smoke-filled rooms where the deals are made
Souls are traded in the greed parade
They sit on thrones built on broken backs
While the truth gets lost in the cracks

[Prechorus]
Do you hear it do you feel it
The weight of their deceit

[Chorus]
Chains of gold and fear
Hold us close keep us near
Lies they sell control the air
They don't see us they don't care

[Bridge]
They feed us poison call it sweet
They build their castles on defeat
But we are fire we are stone
We’ll burn their kingdom to the bone

Chains of Gold and Fear

The King of the Sofa
