That's A Rather Tender Subject
Life's not fair but I'd like to keep it balanced
Then again that might be coming from all the inner malice
I try not to play the victim but I'm feeling pretty helpless
Cause the one percent is thriving meanwhile we're a fucking wreck
Unconditional equality is no more than a fallacy
Yet somehow there's a part of me that thinks it shouldn't be
Opiates prescribed abused all the time
But it's still a fucking crime if you try to catch a high
When all you've known is the lower working class
It's hard to see the sunshine through all that broken glass
Try to climb the totem then fall flat on your ass
Maybe your point of view could use a little contrast
Truly hate society the damage placed inside of me
Situational propriety puts my faith in those who've lied to me
Won't lose touch with my ethics still I feel fucking pathetic
But give me a little credit after all I'm not dead yet
I won't allow my identity to be put in a box
So keep your conformity I'm gonna detox
I refuse to become another civil robot
To keep the cycle never ending I would rather rot
They try desperately to numb your pain
Truth is it never goes away
All you can do is something daring and brave
Maybe make it through the night just to see another day
When all you've known is the lower working class
It's hard to see the sunshine through all that broken glass
Try to climb the totem then fall flat on your ass
Maybe your point of view could use a little contrast
So eat my shorts
When all you've known is the lower working class
It's hard to see the sunshine through all that broken glass
Try to climb the totem then fall flat on your ass
Maybe your point of view could use a little contrast
So maybe 2020 really sucks
Maybe 45 could've given more fucks
Maybe covid-19 is an elaborate distraction
Maybe all this country needs is unified action
Against the classist the fascist the racist and the baseless
Maybe all we need to do is collectively face this
And when the dust settles maybe we can celebrate it
But until then we are free to fucking hate it
Then again that might be coming from all the inner malice
I try not to play the victim but I'm feeling pretty helpless
Cause the one percent is thriving meanwhile we're a fucking wreck
Unconditional equality is no more than a fallacy
Yet somehow there's a part of me that thinks it shouldn't be
Opiates prescribed abused all the time
But it's still a fucking crime if you try to catch a high
When all you've known is the lower working class
It's hard to see the sunshine through all that broken glass
Try to climb the totem then fall flat on your ass
Maybe your point of view could use a little contrast
Truly hate society the damage placed inside of me
Situational propriety puts my faith in those who've lied to me
Won't lose touch with my ethics still I feel fucking pathetic
But give me a little credit after all I'm not dead yet
I won't allow my identity to be put in a box
So keep your conformity I'm gonna detox
I refuse to become another civil robot
To keep the cycle never ending I would rather rot
They try desperately to numb your pain
Truth is it never goes away
All you can do is something daring and brave
Maybe make it through the night just to see another day
When all you've known is the lower working class
It's hard to see the sunshine through all that broken glass
Try to climb the totem then fall flat on your ass
Maybe your point of view could use a little contrast
So eat my shorts
When all you've known is the lower working class
It's hard to see the sunshine through all that broken glass
Try to climb the totem then fall flat on your ass

And when the dust settles maybe we can celebrate it
But until then we are free to fucking hate it
