Cashing in
They're cashing in on our misery
By making us go in circles
While they keep promising to deliver
On nothing cause nothing they've said holds water
They're cashing on our desperation
As all we can do is watch
Then they'll come back to tell us
That five years wasn't enough they want more
They know which buttons to push
While they tell us that we should too
We've been pushing the same buttons
But how will they work if they control the system
But what works in this system
Cause the rot has caught up everywhere
It's moved from their greedy selves
Now they want to cripple what was even working
I wonder what blinds us every election year
For we keep being blinded by the blind
Cause seemingly they also don't see our suffering
How then can we correct it if we also the problem
