They claim to fight
Fight for you and me
Soldiers of freedom
And of sovereignty
But I gaze at their facade
I see the lies
They'd sell you out with the
Prospects of profit in mind

There is no liberty in slaving away
Fingers to the bone
For a starvation wage
One can never truly call themselves free
Slaves to the debts of the corporate elite

A system so broken for the common man
Told from the start he's got the world in his hands
The privileged few are seated at the throne
A corporatocracy
Rotten to the bone

Gorged on their fucking greed Serpents, tongues
Beneath their teeth
They don't care for you or me
They only want to see the green

They claim to fight
Fight for you and me
Soldiers of freedom
And of sovereignty
But I gaze at their facade
I see the lies
They'd sell you out with the
Prospects of profit in mind

Gears grinding, endlessly
Imprisoned and chained
Trapped in our modern cage Sentenced to life for the crime
Of poverty
Dying off to sustain this machine

The richest nation on the face of the earth
But somehow, doomed from birth
But somehow, doomed from birth

A system so broken for the common man
Told from the start he's got the world in his hands
The privileged few are seated at the throne
A corporatocracy
Rotten to the bone

The time is now to resist this fate
Futures of coming generations at stake
Smite the monopoly on our democracy
The few can't control the many

A system so broken for the common man
Told from the start he's got the world in his hands
The privileged few are seated at the throne
A corporatocracy
Rotten to the bone

Rotten to the bone
