They create the fake, so they can steal the real

lyrics

Cheap goods
Cheap food
Cheap cars
Cheap sex
Cheap work
Cheap lives

Cheap pills
Cheap bills
Cheap guns
Cheap drugs
Cheap work
Cheap time

Pay till you got em slaving away
Half their lives to sell
This race to the bottom paves
A one way path to hell

This world you’ve made is fake
To justify mistakes

Defined by what you take
Until you’ve been erased

Scratching at the surface
Forgetting what’s inside
Can’t seem to find a purpose
Can we call this 'life'?

Cheap goods
Cheap food
Cheap cars
Cheap sex
Cheap work
Cheap lives

Cheap pills
Cheap bills
Cheap guns
Cheap drugs
Cheap work
Cheap time

Pop up a sweat shop
Fueled by the crack rocks
And call it progress
Save all the profit
For those at the top and
Remove any resistance

This world you’ve made is fake
To justify mistakes
Defined by what you take
Until you’ve been erased

You better submit to who’s in charge
Or let your family starve
Lose your hand making a shoe
It takes one day to replace you
It takes one day to erase you

Shining city on a hill
Glistening as they prep for the kill

You think you can go on forever
How can this go on forever
Every dollar made
Every price that is paid
We're racing towards the edge
The debt that you owe
On everything you own
Will be repaid
With revenge

They care not who makes laws
Fake money they print to rule them all
They care not who makes laws
Fake money they print controls them all
They care not who makes laws
Fake money they print to rule them all
