lyrics

It's telling that it's expected that people living pay to pay
Would have the wherewithal to weather this without some aide
The monied world will panic if we don't work for just a week
Our lives the price to pay to keep this running full speed
If riot is the voice of the unheard
And they don't give a damn about our needs
How much will it take before we seize the means
The anger of a moment when you stop to realize
The job may be essential
The one who does it ain't worth a dime
Your life is worth much more than that, yeas you know it's true
If you are the point of breaking, maybe I am too
If riot is the voice of the unheard
And they don't give a damn about our needs
Our choice is to rise up now or else we'll be
Forever bled hollow
