Of Silk and Straw

Lyrics

For a change take a look at yourself
 'Cause I see the way you look at me
 Living on the same land
 Breathing the same air
 We were born in the same place
 But raised in a different way
 In the end, you and I
 We're made of the same flesh
 So keep your fucking disdain
 Wealth is not what you seem to think
 I've never seen a hearse followed by a safe
 Wealth is so much more than this
 But you don't seem to understand
 Overflowing pockets (Overflowing pockets)
 But you're so fucking empty (You're so fucking empty)
 Drowning in your arrogance
 I swear you'll never fool me
 Born in silk, born in straw
 Everyone has a path to draw
 Heir to the throne, farmer's son
 We'll all end up at the same point
 Silk or straw
 Yet the soil beneath is stronger than us all
 Pulling the strings in the shadow
 We can see through your disguise
 And when the final judgement starts
 Well, trust me, you will face the facts
 A divided structure
 Led by men with no face, no heart
 From the top of their silver tower
 Watching us all fall apart
 The day will come
 The shelter will turn to mausoleum
 Man is a wolf to man
 You can't run, you can't hide
 For the reaper picks no side
 Made of silk, made of straw
 Everyone has a path to draw
 Heir to the throne, farmer's son
 We'll all end up at the same point
 Silk or straw
 Doomed, crushed, plagued
 Under the pressure to succeed
 Worship the breach in social classes
 United only by a common fear
