lyrics

They swear it trickles down but it ain’t rained in a while
You see us dancing? I mean marching? I mean charge it
To the game its rigged against the masses
Some of y'all simping for the wealthy classes
Brainwashed with them rose colored glasses
Fact is I’m seeing RED whole nation in the RED
And the math ain’t mathin'
this song slaps it ain’t smacking
That’s food for your contemplate
I stay mad - quite irate
you can’t you see? Panoramic
billionaires stackin'
cancel student debt let's get it crackin'
This racial wealth gap ain’t a gap its a chasm
Investing in police like WE the target practice
Put your money where your mouth is
They foaming at the mouth to go to war
Our competing to explore outer space
The houseless need a space to rest their heads
STILL
ink bleed no oil spill 98’ Till
INFINITY
HONESTLY
We need a solidarity economy
honestly
we need a solidarity economy
honestly
we need a solidarity economy
