Class warfare, I guess? But Communism is cringe
Either way, it's about how systems, especially the hypocritical leaders may ask for unreasonable demands while believing they pay the same, but of course, exploiting the masses instead.
lyrics
Verse 1:
Indulgences indulge in dime deluge,
When it rains it pours the score,
And the shots followed the payload,
So the goalpost moved with talk,
Cash in pockets pilfered every penny,
Pitter Patter placed their paws,
A thief found in the night,
Fat cats print and raise the price,
Ignored the calls, soon to ignite,
The notion, more a motion,
Or a movement to unite,
But never passed, the bill decides,
Decimates till top ten percent,
Curates the flesh of men,
Deciding who resides within the palace,
Leave the rest to pay the rent,
Hook:
Pay the price a pound of flesh,
But paid to who without the debts?
No flesh was paid from those who claim,
To be for you, if not the same,
The hand on chains weighs heavy,
The complain they have to hold it while,
The burden falls upon your shoulder,
Collar, wallet, bloody tie.
Verse 2:
Drink from poison rivers if your thirsty,
They say standing at the spring,
Come out your shell, and tell us clearly,
What you really think,
On the brink of all collapse, fold into ranks,
but we ten-fold their number,
Could reduce their flanks,
To stammer in a slumber, reduce all to ash,
My pound of flesh is cooking on the stove,
The price is rising,
Have we got the energy to invoke hope,
Its atomising,
With No fusion of our values,
Pure division, it explodes,
As they fish for a new angle,
Hope we bite the bait they sold,
Hook:
Pay the price a pound of flesh,
But paid to who without the debts?
No flesh was paid from those who claim,
To be for you, if not the same,
The hand on chains, weighs heavy,
The complain they have to hold it while,
The burden falls upon your shoulder,
Collar, wallet, bloody tie.
