Human Race

The human race is a race against time
Everybody running but they don' t know why
Said the human race is a race against time
Everybody running but they don' t know why

I' m sick of hippies studying conspiracies on channel U
While doing sweet fuck all to act upon the shit that they
Already knew existed, the simple and yet twisted fact
That fat cats just don' t give a fuck about the likes of me and you

So what are we gonna do about it, maybe shout it from the
Rooftops till the floor drops out the market and the war stops making
Money for the corporations. I' m losing patience with the
machinations of developed nations towards their poor relations

How many so called liberations will it take
until we satisfy our appetite for power and we make a new
Direction, a peaceful insurrection.

As if there' s something that I' m trying to conceal here
caught in the conditioning of I don' t know how many years

But the history of humanity weighs heavy on my shoulders
Systems of insanity that mould us
