I Believed
My name is Christian Tollefsen, I'm 21 years old
I enjoy a life of abundance with perhaps a century to go
My house is about two miles out from the old Lake Michigan shoreline
Safely apart from Renaissance City the Chicago of old, back in time
According to the Quantum Network - the authority for historical facts
Capitalism was unfairly demonized, ironically, for its glaring success
Automation and wealth concentration displaced the lowly masses
Now the feds supply them everything with free lifetime passes
I believed everything that I was told
I, I, I believed
I believed everything that I was told
I, I, I believed
I believed everything that I was told
Father designed the modular units that house the poor
Generous space for a family of two, cheap to build and add more
We take care of our lesser brothers, including my non-compliant peers
But maintaining standards for the underclass is a numbers game every year
I've never been to the city myself though I hear it's kind of a rave
People are free to do as they please and are simply asked to behave
My ultraclass status is not a free ticket - in fact, we're all on the clock
We must contribute enough to the wealth because there's limited room at the top
I believed everything that I was told
I, I, I believed
I believed everything that I was told
I, I, I believed
I believed everything that I was told
I enjoy a life of abundance with perhaps a century to go
My house is about two miles out from the old Lake Michigan shoreline
Safely apart from Renaissance City the Chicago of old, back in time
According to the Quantum Network - the authority for historical facts
Capitalism was unfairly demonized, ironically, for its glaring success
Automation and wealth concentration displaced the lowly masses
Now the feds supply them everything with free lifetime passes
I believed everything that I was told
I, I, I believed
I believed everything that I was told
I, I, I believed
I believed everything that I was told
Father designed the modular units that house the poor
Generous space for a family of two, cheap to build and add more
We take care of our lesser brothers, including my non-compliant peers
But maintaining standards for the underclass is a numbers game every year
I've never been to the city myself though I hear it's kind of a rave
People are free to do as they please and are simply asked to behave
My ultraclass status is not a free ticket - in fact, we're all on the clock
We must contribute enough to the wealth because there's limited room at the top
I believed everything that I was told
I, I, I believed
I believed everything that I was told
I, I, I believed
I believed everything that I was told
