You know we could run
But there’s another way
Put a head on the block and
Wait for more snakes to appear
Been a right old year
Narrowed it down to a defect
Caused by the effect
Of feeling like a reject
Insignificant
Much like an insect
Formidable in context
Pathetic when you kneel and check
But I’m rising like a Phoenix
I mean it
Not all bad, truths out
Like a remix
Sound familiar?
Warrior
Born in cage
knows no peace
Can’t be tamed
You know we could run
But there’s another way
Put a head on the block and
Wait for more snakes to appear
You know we could run
But there’s another way
Put a head on the block and
Wait for more snakes to appear
What does it mean to be tenable?
Impregnable
Built on a solid foundation
In a game that’s winnable
A life that’s meaningful
Should never be the right of the few
You pay with your life
When you find they have deceived you
You bought in
Card carrying recruit
High-vis vest
Is the best they expect from you
To add value
To prove your worth to the parasites
Who generate wealth from your hard work
You know we could run
But there’s another way
Put a head on the block and
Wait for more snakes to appear
You know we could run
But there’s another way
Put a head on the block and
Wait for more snakes to appear
You know the story
It’s as old as time
Got a rock on the left
A hard place on the right
You can’t decide if you wanna be
Left to your own devices
Or have your hand held through life
If your in the club
What a time to be alive cause they’re Picking through the carcass
While there’s still signs of life
You sleep well
You’re probably not the worst
Did you ever think to ask
Why the pigs eat first?
We have inherited a legacy of drudgery
Born of moral bankruptcy
And criminal naivety
I can’t you tell how my skin crawls
When I hear a lifetime grafter say she loves the Queen
It’s beyond me
I feel burdened by the truth
That we’re programmed to lose
And it’s killing the mood
Heed that niggling feeling
You know something is off
Stop trying to mask the smell
Let’s treat the rot
You know we could run
But there’s another way
Put a head on the block and
Wait for more snakes to appear
You know we could run
But there’s another way
Put a head on the block and
Wait for more snakes to appear
You know we could run
But there’s another way
Put a head on the block and
Wait for more snakes to appear
You know we could run
But there’s another way
Put a head on the block and
Wait for more snakes to appear
There’s another way
There’s another way
There’s another way
