Of Silk and Straw

For a change take a look at yourself 'Cause I see the way you look at me Living on the same land Breathing the same air We were born in the same place But raised in a different way In the end, you and I We're made of the same flesh So keep your fucking disdain Wealth is not what you seem to think I've never seen a hearse followed by a safe Wealth is so much more than this But you don't seem to understand Overflowing pockets (Overflowing pockets) But you're so fucking empty (You're so fucking empty) Drowning in your arrogance I swear you'll never fool me Born in silk, born in straw Everyone has a path to draw Heir to the throne, farmer's son We'll all end up at the same point Silk or straw Yet the soil beneath is stronger than us all Pulling the strings in the shadow We can see through your disguise And when the final judgement starts Well, trust me, you will face the facts A divided structure Led by men with no face, no heart From the top of their silver tower Watching us all fall apart The day will come The shelter will turn to mausoleum Man is a wolf to man You can't run, you can't hide For the reaper picks no side Made of silk, made of straw Everyone has a path to draw Heir to the throne, farmer's son We'll all end up at the same point Silk or straw Doomed, crushed, plagued Under the pressure to succeed Worship the breach in social classes United only by a common fear
