lyrics

Take your time,
Hurry up and slow down,
Half your life conflicting orders from these clowns,
You played your part in the sinking of your town,
Too late to jump ship now,
You’ve already drowned.

So, you’ve climbed a couple of rungs of their ladder.
When you get to the top boy,
You’re going to pull that ladder up,
Have yourself some children and condition them to be just like you,
And they’ll emerge from this cycle as vicious as you.

So, you’ve made it out of this town you call home,
Just wait until you reap the seeds you’ve sown.

What will you do with your illusion of power,
Will you use it against those who helped you build your tower,
Hold their heads under the water keep all the air for yourself,
Feed them fear to quell the hunger,
Protect your soiled wealth.

So, you’ve made it out of this town you call home,
Just wait until you reap the seeds you’ve sown.

Poverty persecution,
No time to wait for devolution,
Leaves only on solution,
So, where are you going to hide in the revolution?
