Couple bills and some hope Maybe one new shirt if I’m stretchin’ every note Everybody flexin’ on TikTok, tryna cope Actin’ like we kings but we rats inside the hole Whole colony of ants, carry weight till we collapse Run the wheel forever while they countin’ up the stacks Say “grind harder”, “manifest”, “go and chase your dreams” Funny how the rich sell motivation from machines Barely got time just to breathe, just to think They distract and deceive, pour more lies in the drink One month off every year, like that’s freedom they preach Then it’s back to the screens, back to products and receipts They robbin’ time, they robbin’ money, robbin’ life away Built a cage and call it normal, tell us “work and pray” Designed to make you fail so you keep producin’ every day For the people at the top while your youth just fades away They robbin’ time, they robbin’ money, robbin’ life away Forty hours every week until your hair turn gray Then at sixty-four they tell you “go enjoy yourself” When your body barely movin’, dreams collectin’ dust on shelves Spent my whole life in front of screens and products Machines makin’ profits while we pray for deposits Managers and deadlines, spreadsheets and nonsense Sold my youth for numbers, now they call that progress If I put those same hours into buildin’ for myself Maybe I’d be wealthy, maybe ownin’ all the wealth But they keep us in survival, keep us scared to lose ’Cause a hungry worker easier to use Cycle by design, not a flaw, that’s the trick Keep the rats runnin’ circles while the billionaires get rich Keep the ants carryin’ mountains, never askin’ who they for Till your knees start givin’ out and they don’t need you anymore Born into a race nobody asked to run Trade your days for paper till your body’s done Then they hand you freedom when the battle’s won Tell you “live your life” when your life already gone They robbin’ time, they robbin’ money, robbin’ life away Sellin’ dreams and empty slogans every single day System built to keep us workin’, keep the rich above While we sacrifice our years, our minds, the people that we love Forty hours every week, generation after generation Different chains, same cage, same destination And they wonder why we tired, why we numb, why we rage We ain’t livin’, we just workers trapped inside a golden cage.
