[Verse 1: Time] Tell me, is this what we were meant to do Work more than 40 hours and still not make it through The alarm clock rings, my hand hits snooze The coffee starts to brew, the working man's blues When the caffeine hits your lips, think of this The fast food worker who can't afford a grocery list They say you want money work hard I think the point was missed Cuz most people got 2 jobs and can't afford sh** Women are paid less than men I learned from feminists From Bell Hooks to Bell Jar people should be pissed But patriarchy's power and man won't give it up So they sip fracking fluid in suits and live it up This is for teachers who buy stuff out of pocket To help the students find the key to their mind and unlock it Most these senators say that everything's fine But everyone's in debt so someone must be lying [Hook: Time] 1 2 3 4 bills I got 5 6 7 8 stacks I lost 9 10 11 and I watch them all drop Back to 0 I wish the subtraction would stop [Verse 2: Time] Rush hour traffic the sewers all steam We give our time to a boss and sacrifice our dreams Headlines that brainwash that's why they call them headlines This is thought control, we're living in the end times Could you even imagine yourself without a job? A wage is just another way to say you're getting robbed If you got dreams you got to sacrifice your sleep Cuz rent comes quick and food's not cheap In 2000 whatever, free times extinct Cuz everyone's stressed there's dirty dishes in the sink Anxiety rates are through the foreclosed roof You try to spend the pain away but you can't buy the truth Anti-union so they divide and conquer It's all about profit alienation's the monster I dipped this verse in kerosene won't you help me light it? Best part about it I stole time on the clock to write this [Hook: Time] 1 2 3 4 bills I got 5 6 7 8 stacks I lost 9 10 11 and I watch them all drop Back to 0 I wish the subtraction would stop
