Rat Race

Excuse me citizen

What are you looking for?

Is there something I can find for you?

I'll have your back to your dull reality in no time

But before you go

Is it freedom, is it love?

Forgiveness from your god above

On and on and on I hear about the rat race

And I don't care to place

Its always on your mind

You say it doesn't matter

Withstand the test of time

Always focused never scattered

Maybe I am missing something

Someone please just fill me in

All this greed and competition

What the hell are we trying to win?

Is it to gain respect from all your peers?

Playing on your thoughts, dreams, and fears

And I know it's okay now, take a breath

I think they're gone and its okay to rest

On and on and on it's just a cat and mouse chase

And now you're losing face

Okay, you win

I guess the story's ending

No way, not fair

I can see that you don't care

Maybe I am missing something

Someone please just fill me in

All this greed and competition

What the hell are we trying to win?

You've got regrets

Open wound debts

You can't explain

But you feel the pain and it's tearing you to shreds

You're seeing red

You made this bed

And it won't change until you spit out what you're fed

OK, you win

I guess the story's ending

No way, Not fair

I can see that you don't care

Maybe I am missing something

Someone please just fill me in

All this greed and competition

What the hell are we trying to win?

There's no justice

They don't trust us
