2. Shadows of the Financial District (3:23)
Liars, put on display
Rulers, without a crown
Dollars, the modern day chains of enslavement
Exist to fuel the ruling class

Shadows, of buildings, cast darkness, on homeless
In cities, where richness, is built to, hide poorness

The financial disease infected all the sheep,
who live a breed and die without a chance for life

Wages kept under lock
Debt is systematic
Reduces the competition
Leaves them at the top

The workers are left
To break their backs
While rulers pay dollars
to cash in their millions
And live their worry-free lives
In tops of their buildings
And cast down a shadow
of financial reign

Broken
Ignored

Shadows, of buildings, cast darkness, on homeless
In cities, where richness, is built to, hide poorness

Broken, overworked
Ignored, the working class

It’s a shit show of labor, barking their orders, and workers risking lives just to pay for their life, an overflow of money just piling into nothing and a world I don’t want shit to do with

We’ll break your fucking backs
