You say that things'll get better Just wait and see Well if the system's so great Why you still selling me dreams? My friends can't pay rent Can't afford to breathe While you stack another million And tell us to believe They're drowning in debt Can't afford to get sick While billionaires keep playing rocketship You don't know where I've been You don't live what I've seen I'm not the problem You're the disease I'm not the problem I'm done on my knees Look what you've broken Look what you've sold I'm not the problem I'm taking control They say "Honey, it's just a phase Every generation's the same" While the ice caps melt And they're playing their games So don't tell me to wait Don't tell me to hope I've been waiting my whole damn life For your trickle-down joke The system's rigged The fix is in They sell us survival Then call it a win Keep your thoughts and prayers Your empty guarantees You don't know where I've been You don't live what I've seen I'm not the problem You're the disease I'm not the problem I'm done on my knees Look what you've broken Look what you've sold I'm not the problem I'm taking control You built it You broke it You sold it You choke it And now you want me quiet? Now you want me small? Not the problem Not the problem Not the problem Not the problem I'm taking control We're not the problem You're the disease We're not the problem We're done on our knees Look what you've broken Look what you've sold We're not the problem We're taking control
