Cattle

We are cattle
They are cattle too
But they are in denial
And they take it out on you
we are the meat
Our children will eat
Our conservation at a peak
As we tear apart the weak
With their slick words
They manage to stay on the top
While they butcher us for money
When will it stop?
Its only cannibalism
That keeps our structure intact
While they order us around
The green keeps getting stacked
And are we really so free
When a baby can’t be born
Ripped apart with a vacuum
To save the mother from scorn
And our teachers teach the lies
That were fed to them as youths
And our ears and eyes believe
To save us from the truth
That we are but machines
Living out misunderstood dreams
And even as we scream
We can watch the Kingpin gleam
We are puppets we are dogs
We are livestock to be killed
But if you have the knowledge
Matched with the skill
You can fool you
and the rest of them as well
You can live your life of pleasure
while your friends still live in hell
If you and I believe
the same thing don’t conceive
that you can change it all with a plea
Most can’t believe they’ve been deceived
They’d rather live a lie
Than face the facts of the day
They are cowards so fuck them
They’ll only betray us anyway
