Hopeless & jaded
Creativness faded
Still wide awake but
my empathy’s wasted
What more could I want
With abundance of faces
To laugh at
To pray to
But still I feel shaded
Is this how it all works?
It’s really outdated
work til you die & the industry thanks it
“You’re doing so well”
To get a gold star
We won’t pay you much
But keep working hard
“Give a little bit more”
then surly you’ll make it
Beware cause your boss
already forbade it
Is this what we want?
dystopian nation
Now get back to work
And Never forsake it
God oh my god
How The system is broken
We pray to a god that can’t be outspoken
If this is his will
If this is his way
How could you believe
that the suffering made
Can never be wrong
Then oh what a shame, kid
The promise of love
continues to break and
don’t get me wrong
Believe what you may
The problem I see that
Is our big mistake
Relying on those
Who drown in their faith
They reap what they sow
So results complicate it
With Property, growth,
Interest by the bank
And Racist foundation for history’s sake
And the Female commodity,
Laws for her body
No good for the office
lest she greets the lobby
And The price that we pay
For minimum wage
Society is fucked
until we get all get a say
So Stand up for your own
Or You’re kidding yourself
Thinking you sit on the 1% shelf
Make few a mil and
then we can talk
But now you’re just voting
against your own cause
They want you to think
That you’re one of them
But to tell you a secret
They don’t want you in
I know it’s upsetting
You’re down the wrong road but
they want you that way
to buy all your votes
So Love one another
Be humble, be sober
The system will change
Cause united, it’s over
