[Verse 1] Lobbyists feeding Wall Street, Congress humming privately Decrees printed in secret, taxes bleed security Emails vanish people die severs become compromised I see the revolving doors spinning like slot machines [breakbeat] Campaign cash stacks higher than the towers in our dreams Feds whisper clever schemes while the people wait in line Contracts signed, shadows draw, oil spills and lines will fall Justice wears a blindfold, but her hand’s on their side [Chorus - breakbeat, guitars pickup] Back to sleep! Till you are dead! "You didn't hear" the profits said Back to sleep! While we're dead Fuck it up, rip it up, empires time Its long passed time! [Verse 2 - breakbeat] White floors slick with gold, nothing’s accidental Bills pass,freedom dies, checks and balances aside Politicians living big, check the pockets full of sin Healthcare education sold, enslaved till you grow old [drum interlude] Life in chains, kids encaged, in the land of the free Executives smiling while the climate boils sea Every vote and every count, drowned in money, career clout Long hidden buried things will come out eventually! [Chorus - breakbeat, guitars pickup] Back to sleep! Till you are dead! "You didn't hear" the profits said Back to sleep! While we're dead Fuck it up, rip it up, empires time Its long passed time! [Verse 3 - breakbeat] Surveillance cameras hum, NSA in every home Promise comes, evil lies, market lives while we all die Votes suspended, breaking down Justice bends where suits abound [drum break} Prison for profit joint, legal slavery the point Welfare thrown overboard some fuckin 50 years ago Every headline bleeds fear, every law a sharpened blade The people scream, for a system nothing lost and all is gained [Chorus - breakbeat, guitars pickup] Back to sleep! Till you are dead! "You didn't hear" the profits said Back to sleep! While we're dead Fuck it up, rip it up, empires time Its long passed time!
