lyrics

Note to self: don’t destroy you
Just ‘cause they’re destroying everything else
Looks like I forgot my own rule again
It must be ‘cause I hate myself, how else can one explain
The masochism of understanding consequence?
And when he made off with the pot was it so hard to see
You can’t abuse a system that you embody

I don’t want to be living and loving just as long as I get paid
Anyone can get paid
I don’t want to die clutching to my chest all that I’ve made
As if death won’t be the same

I know death will be the same
When they sell the same dream
Two blocks from my grave

While you’re up to your waist in privilege
Do you really believe it’s just business?
Don’t tell me this is part of any natural course
Cuz I am a human, not a resource
You’ve got a way with limits
When they don’t apply to you
Overwhelm the competition
It’s not a playing field; it’s a fucking coup

I don’t want to be living and loving just as long as I get paid
Anyone can get paid
I don’t want to die clutching to my chest all that I’ve made
As if death won’t be the same

As if death won’t be the same
Apparently accountability doesn’t exist at the pyramid’s peak

It’s nothing personal
