Society Simplified


We live in a society that's based

On size and race

We teach guys

You're not a man unless you womanize

We live in a world based on scales

Don't follow the rules?

Well you must be off the rails

Lie. Steal Cheat.

Do whatever it takes to compete

Hurt whoever you want

All that matters is fellow human defeat

So hold you're head high and stand up  straight

Because there's a whole world out there who'd love to see you break.
