'Cause you want what you want and you want it now
And if you see a chance to take it, it doesn't matter how
'Cause we're wilder than animals when it comes to taking
And if someone's in my way, then it's gonna pop off
Nothing is sacred 'cause now we're grabbing for ourselves
If you can profit from a train, then we'll jump on
I mean, why compromise, why budge an inch?
'Cause someone else did it, should I be just as dumb?
I want to have it good like the rich do
If they're ruthless, I'm the same
And what they don't know is that I've got nothing to lose
So my reservations can never be big
Everybody wants to go to heaven but few want to die
You want to rake in the winnings, but sow no seeds
You want your piece of the cake, and want to eat it too
People want to take back, but refuse to give
And I'll do what I do, and I'll do it well
And keep going 'til someone comes and takes my share
'Cause who decides right and wrong when morality is dead
And people are murdering each other for their daily bread
The state is backing down, corporations are taking over
And they talk a lot of talk but give us meager wages
So much sh*t you'd think millions of stomachs were emptied
So they force us to swim around in a sea of lies
The truth is now just a memory
For everything we add, something disappears
This, ladies and gentlemen, is what we are
But I hear the old guys on TV say they want peace
Everybody wants to go to heaven but few want to die
You want to rake in the winnings, but sow no seeds
You want your piece of the cake, and want to eat it too
People want to take back, but refuse to give
And I'm gonna spit epistles like it
Was my last day and I knew it
Maybe I'll find the answers in the final round
Missed so many choices it's screamingly obvious
The list is long, like the road there and such
Cost what it may, surely at a high price
I've thought about it, but mostly superficially
The wrong deep dive tests you mentally
You have to pay for everything that means something
Such is the law, nothing we can escape from
I see what I see and I see nothing else
And what I see when I look makes me really p*ssed off
We're heading somewhere and I don't know where
Hope we can figure it out while the planet is still here
Gadgets, stuff, things, are they worth having?
But still the hunt for them is something that really tortures us
I mean the risks are many, but we have to take them
'Cause the suffering is even greater without any capital
The consequences don't matter to me
The only help I can get comes from within
And you can ask anyone you want, even the kind ones
But nobody here can afford to help strangers
So it all results in a downward spiral
So we go at it mano a mano until one is left
Everybody wants to go to heaven but few want to die
You want to rake in the winnings, but sow no seeds
You want your piece of the cake, and want to eat it too
People want to take back, but refuse to give
