lyrics

Another day of the trudge
A hunched limp carries them
Like thrall marching into
The belly of the machine

Absent of humanity
Itemized and systematized
Stripped down to 7 digits
That’s all you are to them

You dare tell me I’m free
You dare call this a life
They take a third of my day
Yet leave scraps for pay

Stability but a fantasy
A pleasure for those born golden
A home, heat, and rest from hunger
A pleasure for those carry the burden

A fast grip on that little ledge
Is all we have to hold us
As fingers on the leather ledger
Mark your labor’s worth

I yearn to taste freedom
But have been cursed by birth
As fingers on the leather ledger
Mark your labor’s worth
