Beans and Rice
Beans and Rice 2
Life these days are beyond expensive
Everyone is just taxed to death
Nothing ever changes
Our government is completely divided
Let just live off of beans and rice
The cost of food is just out-rages
Can’t keep your head above water
Live cheap low as you can go
Not even a dime to spare
Standing in the cold below zero
All of the sacrifice parents make these days
Two jobs, just exhausted to the brink
Living with an empty fridge
We are watched 24/7 under surveillance
Our freedom is lost
Our civil liberties are gone
1776 has vanished
Our very own independence has diminished
Society is crumbling
The world is constantly burning
