POWER

They say that life's a dog eat dog world
Cannibals treating each other like churros
Feasting on the mean streets of Capitalist Way
Where the motto is "Money Over Everything"

Today, dead presidents represent you as the man
And that's when you acquire Eminem like Stans
Brown nosing and plotting to get all that they can
Smiling in your face acting like they're your #1 fan

I understand that we're trying to survive working 9-5's
And that we must have drive in order for us to thrive
The biggest lie is that we're superior if we have dough
No, you can't just grab women by the pussies like hoes

Know that we shouldn't sell our souls to acquire fame
Shouldn't stab each other in the back to win the game
The 48 laws of power says to devour & that's a shame
It proclaims deception is the weapon we're all carrying

It's scary FAM, this is the mentality in the watch tower
That those with less dough should get golden showers
The mere thought of all this makes my stomach sour
Have to accept that this is how many acquire power
