BENNY BLANCO lyrics : "Greed"
Otherwise we'll get buried alive, like David Blaine
Speeding forward like a raging train
Fly till we crash folded in several pieces like a paper plane
I wonder whether the weather will stay the same
We in a drought, no longer can we make it rain
Corporations got us needing these amazing things
Their minds are razor sharp, our wallets razor thin
And its sickening to witness these abrasive sins
Work so many hours, count the days till we get paid again
Sacrifice our health so we can pay for it?
Thats so ironic, think about it for a minute, use your brain my friend
And pharmaceutical demons are wearing angel wings
Keeping the pitchfork hidden behind their apron strings
They can't sell you medicine unless they make you sick
Greed is the evil reason you bleeding as they cage you in
[interlude...]
Greed is the reason for the death of millions
We don't regret the killing, we're oblivious, driven by hedonistic mechanisms
Invest in a wreckless system
And every election these broken promises sever the remnants of our pessimism
Demand is artificial
Competitors working together, divide and conquer the market, till they all convince you
But its hard to stay together like a soggy tissue
So we compete amongst each other till our pockets fizzle
We keep spending like these loans are a gold mine
But you can't run away from the bank like a low tide
And we're so lazy, we never use our own mind
Cuz computers can do it in no time
We're in a jungle where the leopards lie, looking through infected eyes
Rational thoughts are about as common as a pregnant guy
We live like we gon' never die,
and then we die having never really lived...tell me why..
[outro...]
