Pay Up

They taxed my hope before my paycheck
Pay up!
Raise the rent, praise the poor
Smile for the camera, then lock the door
Blue-collar backs make golden thrones
They sip our sweat like it's vintage stones
Newsfeed fear, clickbait fame
We burn out stars
While they brand the flame
Scream for change
They monetize pain
Livestream grief for corporate gain
This ain't envy it's interest due!
Pay up!
We paid in blood for the rent you blew!
Pay up!
This ain't envy it's interest due!
Every check bounce back on you
Pay up! Pay up!
Vote don't count when the wallet wins
Faith don't feed when the market sins
We grind, they golf same movie, new spin
Same suits smilin' same old sin
Nine-to-five ain't livin', it's lease to breathe
We plant the seed, they own the trees
I ain't mad I'm just awake
Respect don't trickle we make it quake
Middle-class myth, we fund the lie
Pay up! Pay up!
No heroes left just workers high
This ain't envy it's interest due!
Pay up!
We paid in blood for the rent you blew!
Pay up!
You took our labor, we took the view
Now watch the workers own the news
Pay up! Pay up!
Class war clocked in
And we ain't clockin' out
