Are we truly free or living in concrete cages?
Birth School, Work, Death, it's been going on for ages
Is there more? Is this really life?
This is not how we're supposed to live
The wages trickle down from rich to poor like water through a sieve
Restrictions, rules, law changes and that
Fast food, junk food, to make us all fat
The economy is all some people care
When money put over lives we must beware
Run The Jewels tried to tell us in "Sea Legs" and "Walking in the Snow"
They dumb down education, they don't want our minds to grow
All I can do so far is what I can
All I am is a singular man
Wake up, stop being a debt slave
Our vision all an illusion, wait till we no longer behave
