|
Habits of the lemmings die hard |
|
Patterns of obsession go far |
|
Digging ditches so they never see the stars |
|
Now all them lessons learned get buried in the yard |
|
And ways of the weapon bombard |
|
Building mountains of them body bags large |
|
Rubbernecking while collision greet your car |
|
And you may know your name but don't know who or what you are |
|
You're a slave |
|
Poised to drink that Kool-Aid suicide |
|
Follow don't get left behind |
|
Don't think, better do just what they certify |
|
You that servant, never choose a side |
|
Vassal of the modern times |
|
And when it all blows up you duck your head and hide |
|
You out there searching for that silver line |
|
But sweat has covered up the signs |
|
Now that fortune came, but it's gone and it passed you by |
|
You plucked your feathers, now you wonder why |
|
You can't lift yourself and fly |
|
Well in the middle of an ocean no one's hands are dry |
|
If that tree fall does it make a sound |
|
Can the world stall from the runaround |
|
Can a mind think if it's in a crowd |
|
Can a soul search if it's never found |
|
And can a thing grow when you cut it down |
|
Can we all find peace in the here and now |
|
You can crawl through the mud with your hands bound |
|
But I'll get plenty of that dirt when I'm underground |
|
You're a slave |
|
You're a slave |
|
You're a slave |
|
And this a slave ship |
|
This a slave ship |
|
Shackled in those chains, whipped |
|
Pushed until you break, fixed |
|
Back into the game quick |
|
March along the pavement |
|
Earn that meager wage, spit |
|
Do just what they say, skip |
|
Work until the pain splits |
|
Let the haze lift |
|
Pull yourself out of that grave pit |
|
And consider how you became sick |
|
All that labor brought you nothing but your bones sore |
|
All that devotion led to nothing but the sweat pours |
|
And now they want more |
|
Own you to the core |
|
Well I don't make laws |
|
But I am not yours |
|
And this a mob call |
|
Let them bricks fall |
|
If you want freedom then just take it, what you waiting for |
|
Don't let your masters tell you this is how it's done |
|
Don't let the wicked fool you, this is how the war is won |
|
That mayhem can't continue if the noble don't succumb |
|
That forest on fire pave the way to what becomes |
|
They tell you disregard the doubts that creeps across your mind |
|
They tell you there is simply nothing more for you to find |
|
They tell you time to wake up and get back into the line |
|
These pyramids don't build themselves, now go resume the grind |
|
I tell 'em I don't follow in the footsteps of insane |
|
I tell 'em I don't trail along a path with no terrain |
|
I tell 'em you can work the fields and bask in all your grain |
|
But for one don't live to work, I will not live in vain |
|
You're a slave |
|
And this a slave ship |
|
This twisted culture got you feeding from it's hand |
|
But you will lose that food if you don't meet all their demands |
|
And loyal is the soldier that gets slaughtered with the lambs |
|
Examining the blueprints got you questioning the plans |
|
And if a man fall, does it make a sound |
|
Will the world stall, from the runaround |
|
Does a mind think, when it in a crowd |
|
How can a soul search, if it's never found |
|
And can a thing breathe if it's always being drowned |
|
Can the leaders of the lost forever disavow |
|
And you can stare at the sky while you on the ground |
|
But I'm a wait until I die to take it lying down |
|
This a mob call, let them bricks fall |
|
This a mob call, now let them bricks fall |
|
This a mob call, let them bricks fall |
|
If you want freedom then just take it |
|
What you waiting for? |
