Lyrics
Holding power, they think we're blind But I see through, I'm not that kind [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, I spit words like fire, ignite the fight 'Cause I ain't gonna march to their corporate hype I question the kings who sit on thrones 'Cause money won't matter when we're just bones That's why it burns in my veins, you can feel it in my rage Dollar bills ain't my chains, hear the fury in my cage I'll never bow to greed, and I'll never sell my soul Stay woke, that's my goal, and resist what we're told I'ma never buy the lies, and I never worship gold My whole life's a battle, but my spirit won't be sold [Chorus] I see debt in their eyes, they push love into loans Everywhere I go, corporate giants cast their stones I see lust, I see pain, I feel alien, alone 'Til my heart beats against the system, won't condone Watch them stack their cash (cash high) But it can't buy a clear blue sky In their world, it's tax or die, but I rise, and I defy I won't be just another drone, trapped in a cubicle all alone Chasin' paper 'til I'm bones, won't let 'em turn my heart to stone [Chorus] I find strength in my own truth, while they chase their endless youth Their golden lies, yeah they're so uncouth I'll be the change, I'll be the proof I'm breaking chains, no more the prey (no more) Words sharp as blades, I'm here to slay All about the hustle, but I hustle my way I'm the glitch in their machine, every single day I rise like the phoenix from society's ashes Flipping the script while the system crashes They play it sly (so sly) Collecting souls through digitized lies Consuming minds, with ads they bind, control refined [Verse] Enslaved to screens, we've become unseen In a world of bling, but I'm breaking free Synthetic highs got them chasing scenes While I spit the truth, not their plastic dreams [Pre-Chorus] I drop verses like bombs, shatter the conformity This concrete jungle's a monopoly I unchain my will, escape their authority They mint their fortune off our backs and dreams (off our dreams) Build their empires, silent screams. In the cyberspace, we ain't just memes Lit by our screens, we plot and scheme (yeah we do) [Pre-Chorus] Mountains of debt, they think we'll climb But I won't be a slave to the dollar sign Forge my path in this digital grind Break the chains, reclaim what's mine [Chorus] Rise up, rise against the gold plated lies (stand tall) The status quo won't hold me down, I'll fly I'm not a barcode, won't scan under their scope Fighting the power, unity's our only hope Yeah, this system's rigged, it's a billionaire's game But I spit truth to power, won't just live in shame [Verse] I see workers like pawns in corporate chess We're more than profit margins, in case they forget Exploitation's the norm, they wear suits like armor But my battle cries louder, my resolve grows stronger [Chorus] We're human, not stock, in their capital race Won't let my soul be bought, won't be displaced We grind in silence, but our voices won't stay mute They gorge on power, while they trample on our roots [Verse 3] But mark my words, we'll carve a new beginning Our unity's a force and it's only spinning Exploiting hopes, they profit from our strain But we're breaking out, won't wear their corporate chain Corporate vultures circle 'round the downtrod But we're taking back the streets we once applaud [Break] We rise up from the dust, our will is just too tough Their castle made of greed, against our flood, will slough
