|
Outside your gated homes, |
|
The world begins where your street ends, |
|
Yet in time, your demons will come crawling back, |
|
Praise God for what you have in life, |
|
For your wealth is as hollow as the heart you hold inside. |
|
A nightmare in three dimensions, |
|
This opulence embraced by man, |
|
Reapers of the peasant's harvest, |
|
Gorging on the fat of the land, |
|
Caged in worldly mansions, |
|
Picking vassals out from the poor, |
|
Worship at the altar of avarice, |
|
Where Bourgeois man is born, |
|
As dead men walking spoiled earth, |
|
Who spend their shining coffers dry, |
|
With thirst never quenched nor quelled, |
|
...You ever think to question "why"? |
|
Outside your window of comfort, |
|
It's like night of the living dead, |
|
For each dime you bleed from another, |
|
The stench of your poverty spreads, |
|
Defining the world in equations, |
|
Commodity prices and fees, |
|
You see other humans as cattle, |
|
To service the gluttonous beast, |
|
A werewolf's banquet, |
|
Of ostentatious parody, |
|
Masquerading fortunes, |
|
Amassed through servility, |
|
As you eat them alive... now meet your slaves, |
|
Gomorrah caving in, on your precious homes, |
|
Four walls falling fast... |
