Broke and burdened
By the debt you persuaded us to bear
Hard and calloused
There's nothing left but animosity
We're slipping through the crack
Our time has passed us
And we will be forgotten if we
Give up hope
I'm finished
Being your puppet
I will not take your orders
Anymore
You'll never know what it's like
To labor as we have
It's only a matter of time
Before we toss you off our backs
I've earned the right to speak and say
What I mean
We pave your roads, we haul your trash
We fight your wars, show some respect
You are nothing without me
You'll never know what it's like
To labor as we have
It's only a matter of time
Before we toss you off our backs
You need to need to know what it's like
To labor as we have
It's only a matter of time
It's time to knock you on your ass
When the weight of the world is on your back
Feels like your spine could snap
When you fight so hard
To stay afloat
Just stay afloat
Don't give up hope
Just stay afloat
Don't give up hope
I'm finished
Being your puppet
