lyrics

The owner class is running the game on you
They're one step ahead cause you're behind too
Just to get a good job, you go in debt
We're slugging check to check with no safety net

The owner class treats us like a coloring book
Not the right shade, you're a filthy crook
The owner class bends and twists the odds
While Satan's on the farms and in the sod

You grind against the gears with all your might
You're loosing all your tears and most your fight
The owner class is gonna be what they are
So stay on your drugs, stay in your bars

The owner class documents all your phones
They like to sell you shit to make you feel at home
The owner class knows that you'll soon forget
Soon as Apple puts out that new gadget

The kids are all chalked up full of lead
Then there's trauma porn from that Walking Dead
The owner class loves all the fear
So they serve it up from ear to ear

You grind against the gears with all your might
You're loosing all your tears and most your fight
The owner class is gonna be what they are
So stay on your drugs, stay in your bars
