Eager Maniacs - C.R.E.E.M. lyrics

I slither like a snake through the sands of time While I'm digging my own grave with these hands of mine Working 9-5, life has me chasing more than dreams I'm tugging at these seams to see if I can justify the means There's no end in sight, yet seems like it could end tonight If I don't put up my fists and fight the wick just just might ignite So pay attention, this road was paved with no intention I just wanted to toss a wrench in the gears and gain some thought retention This tension may be integral but it seems the belt is slipping Around my neck, so now the stress is not the only thing that's gripping Blood's dripping from my wallet, because the dollars are soaked in souls The people in control of this hole have given the proles a role But since our buildings started booming and our economy has stopped Obama's 'change' has not been brought, it seems the big picture's been cropped The remains of society remain to be seen by my eyes And every product that we make or buy contributes to our demise Work everyday, what's the reward? That you're still alive? Debt servitude, gotta pay the bills that grow in piles Can you smile at your children while protecting these thieves? It's all about the C.R.E.E.M., ‘Cash rules everything except me'! Our tank's on empty, and now the politricks are stalling out It seems our beloved God and America have had a falling out To me it's all in now, expose the cracks in the foundation! The trickle down of my fickle nouns and verbs are tired of waiting There's a picture to be painted, I suggest you pick up a brush Either hush or call their bluff before the building blocks are crushed We're diamonds in the rough, but we've been showered in sh**, our towers were hit Politicians made the profit when the people lost it Get off your high horse and let it die, it's your demise! Open up your swollen eyes, we've all been sold some golden lies The lines between fantasy and insanity have blurred Now they want to buy and sell the world, this sh** is so absurd! If we started using words we wouldn't have to drop those bombs But that's how we get our money, and that's why we k**ed Saddam Why sell the lies they televise and push boulders shrugging shoulders? This molten soldier is watching embers of just venom smolder Why sell the lies they televise and push boulders shrugging shoulders? This molten soldier's watching embers of just venom smolder Why sell the lies they televise and push boulders shrugging shoulders? This molten soldier's watching embers of just venom smolder Why sell the lies they televise and push boulders shrugging shoulders? This molten soldier's watching embers of just venom smolder Cash rules everything except me, f** the money! Burn a dollar bill ya'll!
