Hold Us Down
We give it up but we don't wanna give in
The money left is starting to look pretty thin
Beaten down by reliance on the oligarchs
Their days left are starting to look numbered
And they can't hold us down
I'd pay my tax, but no one trusts the government
Cos they were bought out by every bidder
Instead we trust in a hand that's invisible
It filters up but it never seems to trickle down
And they won't hold us down
No they won't hold us down
We're going nowhere, fighting over scraps of power
Exploiting resource while the world is in its final hour
We're giving up, we're giving in, we gave it everything
We'll take it back and you'll be left with nothing
We can't unite, if we don't know what we're fighting for
We will not fight, if we don't know what we're moving to
You took it all, you take our all, you take our everything
We'll take it back and you'll be left with nothing
We gave it up but we don't wanna give in
And all that's left is starting to look pretty thin
And I don't trust in a system that oppresses us
Your hold on us is starting to get broken
Cos they won't hold us down
We're going nowhere, fighting over scraps of power
Exploiting resource while the world is in its final hour
We're giving up, we're giving in, we gave it everything
We'll take it back and you'll be left with nothing
We can't unite, if we don't know what we're fighting for
We will not fight, if we don't know what we're moving to
You took it all, you take our all, you take our everything
We'll take it back and you'll be left with nothing
The money left is starting to look pretty thin
Beaten down by reliance on the oligarchs
Their days left are starting to look numbered
And they can't hold us down
I'd pay my tax, but no one trusts the government
Cos they were bought out by every bidder
Instead we trust in a hand that's invisible
It filters up but it never seems to trickle down
And they won't hold us down
No they won't hold us down
We're going nowhere, fighting over scraps of power
Exploiting resource while the world is in its final hour
We're giving up, we're giving in, we gave it everything
We'll take it back and you'll be left with nothing
We can't unite, if we don't know what we're fighting for
We will not fight, if we don't know what we're moving to
You took it all, you take our all, you take our everything
We'll take it back and you'll be left with nothing
We gave it up but we don't wanna give in
And all that's left is starting to look pretty thin
And I don't trust in a system that oppresses us
Your hold on us is starting to get broken
Cos they won't hold us down
We're going nowhere, fighting over scraps of power
Exploiting resource while the world is in its final hour
We're giving up, we're giving in, we gave it everything
We'll take it back and you'll be left with nothing
We can't unite, if we don't know what we're fighting for
We will not fight, if we don't know what we're moving to
You took it all, you take our all, you take our everything
We'll take it back and you'll be left with nothing
