 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Every day I sit and pray to God that we make it out
Can't put my faith in the system, God come and save me now
A slave to wages, I labor and bi-weekly they pay me now
The weight of anxieties weighing down and it's crazy how
The paper it placates, them pesos that we prayed about
Stuck between the banks and the pavement, where the snakes abound
Forced to make a choice between breaking backs as the safer route
Or scraping up the grounds of the greater people who made it out
Can't raise up a ruckus, can't fight back, can't even wait it out
It's ingrained in the very nature of the game, gotta play it now
Etched into the pages of Congress, every state and town
The angers and frustrations of the nation, imma air it out
Making paychecks just to pay rent, and not pay a house
They making sure there's no way how, for you to make a route
And no way out, that's the way they wanna maintain it now
The grade-A wealthy elite class, they're the slavers now

Time to face facts, even taxes can't face the gaping mouths
Of hungry agents of power, even the state is bound
To the almighty dollar, and who the ones with the spades and crowns?
Surely not us, but who's the one that's paying now?

The land of freedom and opportunity, it's a paper town
To make it in this nation, you gotta pay up a great amount
Even Azrael gotta pay up just to lay me down
We used to be afraid of Satan, but we're all Satan now
Raise the border walls and debt ceilings to build Satan's house
Exalt false charlatans who claim they can pray him out
Make the states pick which one of his worshippers will stay devout
Only for Satan to slave for the same slaver now

Sign away your name for an eight-hour shift that breaks you down
With a half-hour break, ain't enough to assuage the hours
I'm more aches and pains than a man lately now
Almost eighty years of slave labor, gotta face it down
Gotta take it now, no matter how much you complain and shout
Facedown in the pillow, getting raped I said you'll take it now
I said you'll take it now
I said you'll take it now
Shut the f*ck up and just accept it's what your place is now
Now here we are, Liberty's bastard fucking baby's now
And who's gonna fix this? Politicians? I'm laughin', breakin' out
How much fucking anger can we take before we break and shout?
28 trillion and counting, there ain't no sane amount
