Sovereignty from Sovereignty by Anarchist Youth

Consider yourself a sovereign state
Free from thievery in the name of what’s right
Absent are the hands that loot your wallet
Know that that which you own is your own

Gone now are the arms of aggression
Which were once pointed your way
Replaced now with handshakes of exchange
Symbols of peaceful voluntary trade

Free to do as you please in your domain
Irrelevant are the “laws” you should disdain
Remember that morality trumps all else
And that no man is above another

You don’t need the state

Fuck their anthemic praise
To the state they are the slaves
Statist sheep in pseudo-holy awe
To elected officials – their human Gods

Cock in hand they salute the flag
In moments of silence saluting dead men
Murdered by the state that they love
Without any consultation from above

Raised to never question taught “truths”
As Plato said, the cave is comforting
Those who leave are blinded by light
As such, they chant ignorance is bliss
