lyrics

passing time on the clock every day of my life
wear the outfit, play the part but
refuse to accept the truth

i am a wage slave

i do not live this land
my home home was fabricated by man
by a man that was not me

i live in his vision of what a home should be
but refuse to adopt it as my own

these feet evolved for walking
but walk they do not
how could they
when the majority of my days are spent sitting

if i must go, i drive

i am a contradiction
i am a hypocrite
how dare i believe the things that i do
while i live the life i live

i know of no other option
i dream of a different tomorrow

but today, today i am just a wage slave
