The Grifted Age
There's no money in progress
There's no profit in change
The whole world would burn tonight
If we could make a dollar off the flames
Once upon a time
We sold you a dream
That you were climbing a mountain
And not a goddamn pyramid scheme
It's all a work
It's all a scam
And it's coming down fast
So get in while you can
Drowning in the sea
As the rising tide lifts
You're either dead in the water
Or you're in on the grift
Belief will only restrain you
Conviction only bleeds
As long as you get what you want
Who gives a fuck about what they need?
No time for consequence
The end's approaching fast
So get yourself an angle
And get the fucking cash
It's all a work
It's all a scam
And it's coming down fast
So get in while you can
Drowning in the sea
As the rising tide lifts
You're either dead in the water
Or you're in on the grift
Cons on every corner
Watch the atrophy with glee
They say they'll cure the sickness
But they're cheering the disease
And so it goes away
Because some asshole made a name
It's all a work
It's all a scam
And it's coming down fast
So get in while you can
Drowning in the sea
As the rising tide lifts
You're either dead in the water
Or you're in on the grift
The grifted age
There's no profit in change
The whole world would burn tonight
If we could make a dollar off the flames
Once upon a time
We sold you a dream
That you were climbing a mountain
And not a goddamn pyramid scheme
It's all a work
It's all a scam
And it's coming down fast
So get in while you can
Drowning in the sea
As the rising tide lifts
You're either dead in the water
Or you're in on the grift
Belief will only restrain you
Conviction only bleeds
As long as you get what you want
Who gives a fuck about what they need?
No time for consequence
The end's approaching fast
So get yourself an angle
And get the fucking cash
It's all a work
It's all a scam
And it's coming down fast
So get in while you can
Drowning in the sea
As the rising tide lifts
You're either dead in the water
Or you're in on the grift
Cons on every corner
Watch the atrophy with glee
They say they'll cure the sickness
But they're cheering the disease
And so it goes away
Because some asshole made a name
It's all a work
It's all a scam
And it's coming down fast
So get in while you can
Drowning in the sea
As the rising tide lifts
You're either dead in the water
Or you're in on the grift
The grifted age
