(Ha!) One life to live and you want to live it (Yeah) Head in the sand, is that really living? (No!) Receiving nothing from what you're giving But you still trust Babylon (Hey)
Breaking your back on the wheel that's driven (Ha!) Life is a bitch and she ain't forgiving (Never) You 'bout to sleep in that grave you digging But you still trust Babylon
Went from tell-lie-vision To tell-lie-phone More connected than ever but still alone Only tunnel vision and mindless drones A couple rats in a maze fighting for the crumbs
Living double lives Can't recognize Who we are anymore Sleepwalking Sleeping awake 'Cause you don't know who you are anymore
One life to live and you want to live it Head in the sand, is that really living? (Is it?) Receiving nothing from what you're giving But you still trust Babylon Breaking your back on the wheel that's driven (How?) Life is a bitch and she ain't forgiving (Never) You 'bout to sleep in that grave you digging But you still trust Babylon
Tryna fix tomorrow but you can't fix your today (Dig it) On your knees to that god you want to pray How he gon' save you if you cannot save yourself So you caught up in this hell As far as I can tell you're a slave One foot in the grave One of the 8 billion rats running through the maze (See it) Can't look in the mirror 'cause all you see is horror 'Cause you don't know who you are anymore
One life to live and you want to live it Head in the sand, is that really living? (Is it?) Receiving nothing from what you're giving But you still trust Babylon
Breaking your back on the wheel that's driven (How?) Life is a bitch and she ain't forgiving (Never) You 'bout to sleep in that grave you digging But you still trust Babylon
(Free from the system) (Free from the system) (Free from the system) (Free from the system) Oh…
When I open my eyes everyday I think about how I can break away
Sick of my wasted life Sick of my wasted life Sick of wasting life Sick of wasting my life Sick of wasting my life I'm sick of this wasted life Sick of this wasted life Sick of this wasted life Sick of this wasted life
So…
One life to live and you want to live it Head in the sand, is that really living? Receiving nothing from what you're giving But you still trust Babylon (Hey!) Breaking your back on the wheel that's driven Life is a bitch and she ain't forgiving You 'bout to sleep in that grave you digging But you still trust Babylon
