Lyrics Freedom of Recession - Have Nots

Freedom of Recession

You get what you give but you ain’t giving shit
So don’t act so surprised when you start taking hits
You’ll lose all you take, man, when takes all you do
When you try to point blame, three point right back at you…
This is a free country we live in today
Which means no one forced you to take loans you can’t pay
Your gluttonous greed and callous disregard
Was the gun to your head as you maxed out your cards
All you know is what they tell you, all you own is what they sell you
Your every atom is compelled to consume or burn in hell
Played the game and placed your bets, forsook your liberty for debt
Then turned around and pointed out the problem…
Dream American dreams as you made your bed
Now they’ve soured, it seems, so you’re blaming the Fed
But money’s not made, it’s just moved around
You had some for a while til it sought higher ground
All you know is what they tell you, all you own is what they sell you
Your every atom is compelled to consume or burn in hell
Time to change how you’ve been living, rearrange what you’ve been given
We call this freedom of recession…
So f*ck it, there’s things more important than wealth
You’ve still got your family, your friends and your health
So hopefully this time the lesson’s been learned
You’ve still got a soul and you’re not what you earn
