Of Silk and Straw |
| For a change |
| Take a look at yourself |
| Cause I see |
| The way you look at me |
| Living on the same land |
| Breathing the same air |
| We were born |
| In the same place |
| But raised in a different way |
| In the end |
| You and I |
| We’re made of the same flesh |
| So keep your fucking disdain |
| Wealth is not what you seem to think |
| I’ve never seen a hearse followed by a safe |
| Wealth is so much more than this |
| But you don’t seem to understand |
| Overflowing pockets |
| But you’re so fucking empty |
| Drowning in your arrogance |
| I swear you’ll never fool me |
| Born in silk |
| Born in straw |
| Everyone has a path to draw |
| Heir to the throne |
| Farmer’s son |
| We’ll all end up at the same point |
| Silk or straw |
| Yet the soil beneath is stronger than us all |
| Pulling the strings in the shadow |
| We can see through your disguise |
| And when the final judgement starts |
| Well trust me, you will face the facts |
| A divided structure |
| Led by men with no face, no heart |
| From the top of their silver tower |
| Watching us all fall apart |
| The day will come |
| The shelter will turn to mausoleum |
| Man is a wolf to man |
| You can’t run |
| You can’t hide |
| For the reaper picks no side |
| Made of silk |
| Made of straw |
| Everyone has a path to draw |
| Heir to the throne |
| Farmer’s son |
| We’ll all end up at the same point |
| Silk or straw |
| Doomed, crushed, plagued |
| Under the pressure to succeed |
| Worship the breach in social classes |
| United only by a common fear |
