Ignorance as virtue,
Cultural abscess,
Infectious black hole
Plague that spreads
Killing human rights
Stale bread & sad circus clowns
Inject smiles to kill the frowns
On all the cows who’ve come to graze
Upon the grass atop their graves.
Whats the point in long life
If you waste every day?
Counting calories, playing it safe,
Tomorrow depends on
The generosity of fate.
I’d rather try my luck at the prize
Than pin my hopes to blackened skies
Work & ethics do not relate,
Morality as blackmail
Keep you chained to this factory farm estate
Weighed down by dollars & debts
Another industrial slave
There is always a choice,
Always a price to be paid,
Health, time, happiness.
My work is my play.
I traded riches for poverty,
You traded freedom for chains.
In the end experiences
Are all we can take away.
Everything else is transient,
The only universal law is change.
