Tekst Utworu

Yeah
Cash Empire on it again
Uh, look
They built a house of glass and called it stone
Promised change on a podium, a PowerPoint dream
Same old suits with a brand new scheme
Said Trust the process, while the process froze
Bridges crackin while the budget grows
Tax on the breath and a fee on the grind
Fine print robbin while they say never mind
Press conference, lies in a tailored press
Photo op smiles while the city stressed
Failed government, yeah we see through
Talkin big checks that never come through
Red tape, dead weight, dead ends
Sold the future just to please your friends
Failed government, lights out in the hall
You heard the people call and let it fall
Potholes deep enough to swallow the truth
Cut the schools, then blame the youth
Hospitals waitin lines out the door
Billion for bombs, but nothing for the floor
Committees forming committees to stall
Reports on reports on the writing on the wall
Left hand don't know what the right hand stole
Whole damn system lost control
They campaign heaven, then govern hell
Auction the block, then ring the bell
We the ones payin every price
Workin double just to roll the dice
You in the marble, we in the dust
Trust gone rust, rust gone bust
Yeah, it's not left, not right, it's up and down
Top floor laughin while the bottom drown
Lobby cash, backdoor deals
Rubber stamp for the corporate wheels
Constitution in the museum case
While they move the goalposts all over the place
We ain't blind, we keep the receipts
Every broken promise in these streets
Failed government, yeah we see through
We been patient, now we comin through
Red tape, dead weight, dead ends
Time to build it back with our own hands.
