Lyrics

By the grind they live by the grind they die, grindstone headstone on an early grave A little freedom to pick their poison and fuck Cull the weak and breed a new batch of slaves Punch in punch out they mark the time as if it affords them some control Give the little peon a holiday so he can spend some time with the scraps of his soul Ten thousand years of labor Generational chains The ancient shackles polished Into a shiny wage Their backs and their hands and their hearts and their brains Human resources to be drained Give them a crumb of a piece of the pie and they'll give you thanks for a feast of pain Complaints? Take some personal responsibility for your choices here in Hell You are a free man, you have free will, so do what you want in your prison cell Did you not sign the contract? Is this here not your name? Wage slave Wage slave Wage slave Wage slave Something that I know Something like a ghost A hidden memory What it's like to be free They came up with a price Our bodies born to die But we were born to live We have so much to give No price that they can pay No threat of early grave No pretty word for slave They can't contain our rage
