The Hand from Self Titled by Life Pilot

They threw a velvet glove on the same old iron fist
They gave us treats, a proficient dictatorship
Smooth as silk is the hand that now feeds you shit
All done under the guise of your best interests
Capital gain's the name of the game
What a surprise that it came down in flames
All different people yet same ball and same chain
Pull different ways so now they’re pulling in vain.

Come take a lesson but don’t give yourself a haemorrhage kid
I've got some time my friend let's see just who the devil really is
You are the definition, just another hypocrite
A piece of shit, so don’t you act like you don’t know it

We’re gonna party like it was the end of all time
Can you say the end is nigh?
To the kids the is old news
But for the parents, well.
This is how we sing our blues.

So put yourselves in our shoes
And see just what its like when you have nothing to lose

Be this a lesson, your impression - not impressing us
Prewritten sentences recited for the cameras
Claim victory and get angry when we don’t make a fuss
To cover up the fact that you don’t give a fuck

So now let's see just whose at fault for it
Don’t look at me I’m not your culprit
Destined to be nothing but bored of it
Damn fucking right I’m insubordinate

You have me just a little confused
You have me just a little confused
One, plus two screws, equals three loose

I won’t stand here
And look in your eye
And I won’t hear it
And I won’t lie
All this victim shit
Now its getting you high
You go fight the power
Then commit the same crime
You’re fighting very ones
You’re now acting just like
And you’re speaking with words that paint in very short sight
You need to speak from your heart
But don’t forget to use your mind
That logic is now becoming something hard to find

This ain’t no racist bit
This is some human shit
We’re on the precipice
Of ending all of it
You need to check your health before the contract rips
And you see for yourself just what eternity is bitch
