Stamp on stamp line on line
Ten years waiting progress confined
The wind won't turn the forests burn
While files stack high at every turn

Drowning deep in endless files
Chained to rules stretched out for miles
Red tape ruler king of delay
Ideas dissolve while we decay

Fifty billion lost to forms each year
Dreams deferred the cost is clear
A thousand rules but no one leads
A fertile ground for wasted deeds

Drowning deep in endless files
Chained to rules stretched out for miles
Red tape ruler king of delay
Ideas dissolve while we decay

A digital promise an analog chain
A modern world but progress feigns
Where's the spark to cut the knot
When even time itself is caught?

Drowning deep in endless files
Chained to rules stretched out for miles
Red tape ruler crowned in lies
While we watch the future die

Not a revolution but a gentle hand
To lift the weight and help us stand
Simplify the maze untie the binds
A path for progress for freer minds
