Compassionless Days

I woke up today, the world was still broken
But I'll keep my reservation at Sunday in Brooklyn

I don't not relate
But this empathy thing's wearing me out
And you post everyday
Bout the travesties here on the ground

While looking out for the little ones
We often miss the bigger picture

What about the people
Worked for stacks by merit made their money?
What about the people
Privatized water supply to earn their honey?
What about the people who sacrificed their Jean Dubuffet?
It's not all sunny

I'm not a saint but we're missing compassion these days

Well I made the mistake
Of reading this mornings paper
The headlines are fake
All smokes screens of saviors

I just can't relate
Your "empathy's" wearing me out
I mean you post everyday
Your ego is clearly devout

But while going on bout the little ones
You may have missed the bigger picture

What about the people
Worked for stacks by merit made their money?
What about the people
Mined the ore of native lands to earn their honey?
What about the people who sacrificed their forth penthouse?
It's not all sunny

I'm not a saint but we're missing compassion these days

What about the people?
(What about the people?)
They give back they give back
What about the people
(What about the people?)
All hail modern day demigods
(All hail!)
What about the people?
They're gonna take us all to space!
(We go vroom vroom!)

I'm not a saint but we're missing
Compassion these days
