Thumbs on the keyboard I'm tapping notes
So many of these stories I haven't wrote
Wondering where to start and where to go
When do we tear apart the wetiko?
Take a seat next to me and I'll speak what I think
Awake the beast, oh yes indeed, the weaker me can rest in peace
Plain to see after these planted seeds eat the weeds
Fantasy can't defeat heavenly energies
Something bleak I perceive, and it seems clear to me
History of mysteries, humanity has been deceived
In the scenes of misery they've ran our countries to the sea and
Now we're drowning in the blood of bodies who just wanted love
I write about this but I know that I can never do it justice
All I have to turn to lyrics is my personal experience
Words of truth and heavy bias, I am thankful for my life but
Hear me out I'll tell you why I feel the pain of modern times

This is happening.
Eyes are opening.
Minds and hearts keep
Fighting, growing.
Time is closing.
Society broken.
Lies are showing.
Denial is hopeless.

This song I wrote for my friends in the back
It's hard I know but you'll make it, yeah
Once I got out I can't go back
To the box that broke the handlers back
Can't stop me now, gonna state some facts
I'm walking out, let me take my bag
Go on the road to the stage and rap
Make mama proud and thank my dad
No money in our bank accounts
So funny how we're breaking down
Economy is fake and now
Our bodies are enslaved for our
Conveniently delivered toys
Disposable muscle employed
I know the hustle and the toil
The pay is not so worth the toll
Sweatshops are how we ship your package
You gotta load from the front to back and
Do it all alone, but it's much too fast
When you're walking home, bones crunch and crack
Human body just can't suffer that
Very long, ain't made to take this crap
So I'm gone, break away in creative act
Find a better way to make a check
To the bosses who dictate our checks
To the shoppers and the big execs
Listen up, you better pay respect
You're the box that broke the handler's back
You thought that you could change the fact
That it's wrong and inhumane to have
All of us at the bottom of the bucket
Living on some dollars that just don't cut it
And you thought that you won't face the fact
Okay watch this-boom! Your face I smack
Think you lost a tooth and they all laugh
You're just not used to the way we live
Get a doctor dude, just be thankful that
You've got the means to get your face looked at
Cause a hospital trip could set us back
Like twenty years of wages, yeah
Not talking about this place exactly, this
For all the jobs that break our back, all
The dads and moms can't feed their family
When they're falling over, weak and unhappy
Cause their bodies have been used like cattle
Our economy is too demanding
And we're crawling through it, centuries pass and
Got small improvement, mostly deception
And it's fucking up our mental health
Then they're telling us don't kill yourself
No giving up, listen, there's help
Well explain to me how in the hell
If I miss a week cause I've fallen ill
And I gotta to breathe and rest a while
Then we're on the streets, couldn't pay the bills
Now look us in the eyes and say you'll help
Get some therapy and take some pills
That is all you'll ever need if you're not well
But That's not entirely enough to solve
The futility of our modern world
It makes us feel so low and small
And breaks the spirit till hope dissolves
I create these lyrics to show you all
The chains that link us to the wall
And by the way, don't get me wrong
If you're in pain, want to end it all
I know the strain, why I write these songs
Take a moment, wait, cause your life is gold
So cry with me when you can't be strong
Just cry with me, you are not alone
Sometimes life is fucked and wrong
Come cry with me, I love you all

Change is happening.
Hearts are opening.
We will only keep
Fighting, growing.
Time is closing.
Society broken.
Lies are showing.
Denial is hopeless.

There's gotta be a way to run things better
There's gotta come a day they stop the pressure
How long will we pay to kill each other?
We've fallen prey to the sickest leaders
The trust we gave is in the dirt
The promise they made they still avert
Conspiracy? Corruption? Overpopulation?
We don't work to live, we live to work
