ANTHONY CARLSEN - ANTHILL

[Verse 1] Conform! Obey! You didn't choose your masters, but they stand tall Proud as peacocks, boot on your neck, watching you crawl While you lick their boots, they look at the sky A beautiful cloudless horizon up high Go on, rub that leather, make it shine so bright You love it, you crave it, you do it every night! You run in circles from morning till dusk Punching the clock, shaking like a husk Go home, eat, sleep, say hello to the kids Then back to the grind where the master bids! [Chorus] You deserve your life, you deserve the pain! Living like a slave in the pouring rain! You waste your time, you waste your years And you don't even know why! Welcome to the Anthill! [Verse 2] Yo, you do everything but you don’t know why Never asking questions, just letting it pass by They know why you do it, they own your head You refuse to see it, but I see it instead! Old age will hit ya, then you’ll understand You wasted your life in the palm of their hand No time for your wife, no time for your sons You gave them your hours, now your whole life is done So stand in the line, throw a beer at my face I’m the target they gave you to keep you in place The scapegoat pointing fingers at your lies Telling you the truth that you hate and despise I ain't your master, I won't pet your head You're just a good dog, fetching bones till you're dead! You threw your dignity deep in the trash But you still open your mouth for their cash You only bite in a pack, with the weak and the fake Look at the choices you continue to make! [Final Chorus] You deserve your life, you deserve the pain! Living like a slave in the pouring rain! You waste your time, you waste your years And you don't even know why! [Bridge] It’s not my fault if your job is shit! It’s not my fault if your wife is ugly, throwing a fit! It’s not my fault if your kids are fools, no respect in their veins! It’s not my fault if you live in the anthill... dragging your chains! [Outro] Good dog... Bring back the bone. Back in the anthill.
