Empty Promise |
The invisible hand is an iron first, helpless |
This distress merits unrest, but a shot in the dark is aimless |
This is an entity, a pent up energy |
Dissidence will not concede to this homogeny |
Dissidence will not concede, to this uniformity |
Dissidence will not concede that our dreams can’t be realities |
Freedom isn’t my ability to cope with this predestiny, to choose where I get a |
degree, or where I spend 40 hours a week |
They commodified the air I breathe, and everything that my eyes see--but I’ve |
built walls, I’ve built walls all around me |
They’re not getting through to me, no--not getting through |
If we can only strive to subsist, if we believe that we can’t make a difference, |
if we believe our dreams are meaningless… |
Life is an empty promise |
Life’s not an empty promise |
