Vanity Project

We all walk around
Nothing really keeps us down
He's got money but he doesn't deserve it

We don't have much time
So most of us don't pass on by
You know everyone's staring at you

I wish I could have seen
What we really could have been
Another life who knows

But now the world's gone
You know who just carries on
The trillionaire, it ain't you

You tried to save yourself
You didn't think twice
But you got chains around your neck
And chains around your thighs
You signed away your life
In a contract only twice
Or you die alone in bed with your pockets empty dead

Cause he wouldn't leave it
Too busy building pointless tunnels
He wouldn't see it
We're just his vanity project

And in another life
Everyone could have been
Everyone could have seen
How they all really are

Parasites, vermin
The lotta them deserve it
We could have had a feast

Instead of that we're learning
That leather tastes like dirt and
We're just so expendable

You tried to save yourself
You didn't think twice
But you got chains around your neck
And chains around your thighs
You signed away your life
In a contract only twice
Or you die alone in bed with your pockets empty dead

Cause he wouldn't leave it
Too busy building pointless tunnels
He wouldn't see it
We're just his vanity project

So get that boot out of your mouth
You don't deserve to kneel there anymore
You heard that right I think you deserve for
Yourself to take priority over a man who just owns property
Why don't you eat them with me, with us
I wanna be more than a vanity project
