There he goes

He’s holding your share

As his own

He has no remorse

This is how things are

It can’t be helped

It’s your choice

To be where you are

As the ladder follows him

From the hole you’re in

You’ll learn to love your walls

He loves his god

That he pretends is yours

It was rewritten

Somewhere along the way

He traded your flesh

For a number

You’ll may be delivered soon enough

If you can prove you are worthy

He supplies your knowledge

He supplies your views

You’ll defend him to the very end

Admiration in hand

This is how things are

He reaches out his hand

To pull you up

You fail to hang on

He never wiped away the blood

You thank him for trying

Try again when you’re more like him.

You’ll know you’ve made it in this world

When you’re just like him
