No Deal

Onward we step with a chip on our chest

Try to best all the fauxs that we're facing

Tie a brick to our cares, throw our hopes in the air

Fit the bit, count the steps that we're pacing

Father time is elastic at most

Though he asks to propose a toast

Whether to brag or boast or it's appropriate

He's always ready to go

Hot on our heels, there's no deal

We broke it off into departments for real

Projecting out, our convictions all stand

Though they resemble hourglass sands

Hooray for the increase

Who pays for you and me?

We scrape so patiently

No no no...

Last light fading, Past life hating

Gas light baiting, Part-time waiting

We rock grayscale in a black n white world

Boys & girls by design losing time on their life

Want dessert coming first nevermind quenching thirst

Calling bluffs on the beauts we're beholding

Don't step too fast

The holes in the plot have been known to trap

Rent yes, attention no, let the record show

Hot on our heels, there's no deal

We broke it off into departments for real

Projecting out, this land is whose land?

For lease n sale, stale hourglass sands

Hooray for wanting change

But too many getting paid,

Can systems rearrange?

No no no...

Last light fading, Past life hating,

Gas light baiting, Part time waiting.

The boots got straps like the ones on our laps

In the labs testing fats while the food full of crap

The kids try to laugh but the cough hold em back

While the carbon attacks on good ol' times,

Hold your breath close your eyes and pretend its alright

And the clock it don't tick and the days they don't fly

On the magic carpet ride of living life online

Lookin like we need new paint on the road signs
