lyrics

The dirty campaign of capital gain
no trace of conscious
no end to the chain
of profit over people
we accept the consequences
the blatant manipulation

We are the pawns
in their game
it's not acceptable to fulminate anymore
in this feudalistic regression
capitalist crime wave
relentless class war

line up on the precipice

You're a product of this age
production line personality
a serf earning a slave's wage
autonomous no more
line up on the precipice
look down and see the score
(repeat)
