We weave a tale of our stark heroics,
swaying the public from our bully pulpits
Create illusions for imperial schemes
poor against the poor for democracy
While we rape that word with a swift incision
snatch up the poverty to fill up the prisons
boost economy with perpetual war
and everything you buy only feeds us more.

I'm Nathan Conte.
You could say I'm anti-authority. I'm not against the concept, it's just that I'd run things better.
The royal "we", of course, referring to myself and my court of knights.
If you weren't important, then it would be perfectly fine to kill you where you stand and walk away as though you were never here.
The individuality of each life in this world is why they are important. For example, there will never be someone exactly like you. Thus, should someone take your life, it is a direct insult to whatever series of events lead to your creation.
Too often, once a man tastes power, he loses sight of why he ever should have obtained it.
