Somebody

Somebody once told me
In order to be somebody
You’ve got to join the crowd
In order to survive

I said, "Hey, buddy"
"I don’t think that you know me"
"I’ve never followed"
"And I am still alive"

I’ve been here before
Made this mistake before
All the greed and the need
Made me want so much more
Money, prosperity
Happiness, vanity
The cum we swallow in order to survive

All you people
Climb the steeple
Call your people
Say that you’re alive
Say we’re liars
Cannon-fodder
Lambs to the slaughter
Working the nine-to-five
We’re alive

Gunned down in the street of gaza
Blinded by propaganda
You died in the name of allah
Fast forward to the valleys
Consuming all the candy
That she can buy
More and more
Tell me what’s in store?
All you people
Climb the steeple
Call your people
Say that you’re alive
Say we’re liars
Cannon-fodder
Lambs to the slaughter
Working the nine to five

We’re alive
