Eat The Cycle

[Verse 1] Are you bored of your boredom? Fingers feeling worked to the bone? Afraid of the life that you've made? You're not alone [Chorus] Who says the best is yet to come? The future's blanker than the black of my lungs I've seen the things we become - it's a cycle And it's only begun [Verse 2] Shit drips from the lips of the grins in the gallery You pinch pennies for pension, upper tiers up their salary No one rests in peace Nothing deviates But the deviant mind maligned with ill will Feeling justified [Chorus] Who says the best is yet to come? The future's blanker than the black of my lungs I've seen the things we become - it's a cycle And it's only begun [Verse 2] Who says the dawn of man's behind us? Who says that wisdom ever finds us? Ties will bind us Lights will blind us You're not alone [Verse 3/Outro] Ties will bind you, indentured 9 to 5 Nobody blames you, you gotta eat to survive Ashamed to ask for what you're being denied You're made your sacrifices I've made mine Ashamed to ask for what you're being denied But everybody's gotta eat
