Analysis of Are we just Pawns
The Truth Ministry
America’s new religion
Preaching day and night
Servicing indecision
Making it all Right
Cut
Cut
Take II
Censorship
Corporate competition
Mainstream stomping and lynching
Slashed fact cleansing and rinsing
Are we just pawns so easily fooled
It is written to form the shape of a chess pawn.
