Satan's Riot

Описание: Satan's Riot

Lyrics

[VERSE 1]
Nyne-tee-three thousand every second ticks,
Thirty-eight trillion and the counter sticks,
Nobody said it and nobody will,
The longest speech but the quietest bill,
The coin you're holding.. red flag alarms,
The dollar's hollow.. so take up arms,

[VERSE 2]
The warehouse full but the shelf is bare,
Four companies own the food you swear,
Was always there but they locked the door,
The grain is rotting on the palace floor,
Your children hungry while the silo's packed,
The ancient Romans called this exact act,

[CHORUS]
Satan's riot — Satan's riot,
Started quiet but you can't deny it,
Seven reasons and they're all the same,
Every city burning with a different flame,
Satan's riot — Satan's riot,
Everyone eats a pilgrim's diet,

[VERSE 3]
Work for nothing or you lose it all,
Benefits chained to a federal wall,
Build the road but you'll never drive,
Corvée labor keeping you alive,
Your body belongs to the project now,
Pharaoh's ghost taught them exactly how,

[VERSE 4]
The river sold to a corporate name,
The well you drank from ain't yours to claim,
Drought hits hard and the faucet's dry,
They own the rain and they'll tell you why,
Bronze Age kingdoms crumbled just like this,
Water stolen with a legal kiss,

[CHORUS]
Satan's riot — Satan's riot,
Started quiet but you can't deny it,
Seven reasons and they're all the same,
Every city burning with a different flame,
Satan's riot — Satan's riot,
Everyone eats a pilgrim's diet,

[VERSE 5]
The park you walked in has a gate today,
The forest sold and they hauled away,
Common ground turned to private walls,
England burned when the commons falls,
Your backyard shortened by a stranger's deed,
Public land became a rich man's greed,

[VERSE 6]
They had the power to forgive it all,
Wipe the slate and rebuild the hall,
Mesopotamia knew the jubilee,
Cancel the debt and the people breathe free,
But the king said no and the temple cracked,
The ancient contract permanently hacked,

[VERSE 7]
You can't wear that and you can't buy this,
Your income bracket sets the shopping list,
The algorithm says you're not approved,
Sumptuary law in a digital groove,
Medieval codes on a touchscreen face,
Your class decided what you're allowed to taste,

[BRIDGE]
I didn't march and I didn't yell,
I didn't ring a single bell,
I just showed them what was always true,
The ancient debt between them and you,
Rome fell this way — Egypt — Greece,
Every empire signed the same damn lease,
You thought you invented something new,
But the receipt is older than all of you,

[OUTRO]
Seven reasons in a single night,
Every corner of America's sight,
Atlanta burning for the grain they hid,
Los Angeles for what the water did,
Chicago cracking where the commons split,
Houston drowning in the debt they lit,
No one started it — no one can stop,
Satan's riot from the bottom to the top,
The ancient reasons wearing modern skin,
Nobody knows how it started but it's settling in...
