Game of Swords

It's a frightening game

High stakes and merciless blame

Scandals brewing, hatred anew

Whom to believe, what has he achieved?

Leak the secrets of your prided country

You'll be alright if you have enough money.

Sharpen your swords, it's the day the crowd decides

Who shall live and who shall die.

Put your name out there, feed them all your lies-

'Life will be better if on me do you decide'

'I'll give you freedom, he'll reward you with greater tax'

Once you enter this game, no one will relax.

One year, two years, thrice and four-

Another great battle is yet in store.

Will the dark flourish?

Will the righteous lose?

That all depends on the perspective you choose.

Politics have a nasty name,

Because this profession is a deadly game.

Money is important, morals thrown aside

There's always a chance but most things are a lie.

Choose wisely, be sure the hate you get you can afford,

Because yes, this is a game of the swords.
