Is Ignorance Always So Bliss? (Collab w/ Vision_of_insanity)

Slithering on their bellies out in old L.A.
Superficial elite’s invade artificial minds
Wilting souls exposed in shades of grey
Contractual red tape is the tie that binds

Throw a few crumpled bills in their face
They eat the bait right off the hook
Executives laugh, as these soulless souls try and compromise
They beg, as their lives are ruined

Heavy scrutiny under a public spotlight
Another fallen angel drowning in disgrace
The hunter is now hunted in such delight
When death arrives wearing a familiar face

Listen to the lines fall out of their mouths
How many times have you heard this
They need you to make a profit or else
Is ignorance always so bliss?

Just give me something
Something I can use
People love it when you lose
They love dirty laundry."
