[Omnious intro, staccato strings] [Intro] [Male vocal] We were not born We accumulated In vaults beneath your ribs In markets made of bone [Whispered Adlib] [Male vocal] Count it Count it again [Verse] [Male vocal] I am Avarice! I do not hunger for bread, I hunger for wanting, For the ache that keeps you awake! You built temples of glass and numbers, I slid between the digits, Every coin you clutch, Is a prayer in my language! [Hook] [Female vocal] Kneel to the shine.. Bow to the glitter.. You call it ambition.. We call it worship! [Male vocal] Hands up high Grasping the sky, You think you own the world, But the world owns your need! [Faster percussion, sharp strings] [Verse] [Female vocal] I am Greed, I do not sleep, I multiply in the dark, Compound interest of the soul! [Female vocal] Empires are my footprints Oil slick across oceans! Forests fall like offerings! You named it progress.... [Female vocal] You split the atom, I split your trust, Every contract signed in haste, Is scripture etched in rust! [Pre-Chorus:] More. More.... MORE.... [Duet] Not enough air! Not enough land! Not enough stars! To fill your hands! [Drop] [Duet] We are the weight in your wanting, The crown on your craving, You crowned us kings of tomorrow, With every bargain you made! [Bridge] [Duet] From our height the cities glow, Like circuits in a restless mind, You call it growth, We call it devotion! [Duet] Children trade their hours, For numbers on a screen, We sip from the overflow, Invisible and serene! [Whisper Layer] Acquire Acquire! [intensify] [Duet] When rivers run dry, You auction the dust, When truth feels small, You leverage trust! [Duet] You say the market decides, We are the market, You say the people choose, We shaped the choices! [Final Hook] [Duet] Kneel to the shine, Bow to the glitter, You forged our thrones, From hunger and fear! Hands up high, Grasping the sky, You think you chase your dreams, But you chase our shadow! [Outro] [Duet] We were not born, We were invited, And every open palm, Is a doorway! Inside it!
