Breakdown from Rising Seas by Rising Seas

Your heroes never worked a day in their lives
Role models because of their family ties
Born on third base, entitled and snide
They’ll brainwash the masses on cable tonight

The rich & the privileged are rigging the game
Tipping the scales, rule without shame
The only way in is pay to play
Hold up a mirror that’s how it got this way

Terrify
with every lie
vilify
Finger point
then deny it every time
And they want to break us down

Breakdown
Society in breakdown
Breakdown

We don’t even notice as things start to change
Little by little, the grip starts to take
Distracted by tech, it acts as our eyes
When it falls apart, we act so surprised
Everyone says that it can’t happen here
We will not succumb to hatred and fear
History proves itself again right
The torches are marching down your street tonight

Terrify
with every lie
vilify
Finger point
then deny it every time
The whole world shits and calls it gold
