How much do you pay for product what do you pay for hype.
How long will that purchase matter when that "push" falls from your sight.
If they sugar coat the poison itll kill you quite the same.
Tune us in as consumers and anesthetize our brains.
Were too dumb to figure out that we all play the game and were to blame.
Do we know whats fact or fiction do you really trust the news.
How much truth gets filtered out before it gets to you.
Diverting your attention from the problems here at home.
Sweep the homeless under the rug in our ghettos we disown.
Out of sight out of mind its a method we condone reap what weve sown.
People fight for equality for their gender and their race.
They seek to blame each other for the problems that they face.
But when 20 of the country owns 80 of its wealth
it limits your opportunities to playing the hand that youre dealt.
Because money is what divides more than color or creed.
The middle class the poor and rich minority
and while they tear down homeless shelters to erect big strip mall chains
the gap between the rich and poor gets wider every day.
It doesnt matter what they say to you were never gonna be the same.
