Psalms of the Crusader: Album 2, Dissonance & Distress : Track 1. Blood on every Receipt.

Описание: Blood on Every Receipt
Lead single from my second album, Dissonance and Distress.
A sharp political critique that transcends left-right divides, exposing the universal hypocrisy of those in power. The track confronts endless taxation, debt burdens, and the commodification of basic survival—where every purchase, every paycheck, every necessity carries the invisible blood of exploitation.
Core theme
An unapologetic anti-system indictment: modern society as a rigged machine that drains workers through wages, taxes, poisoned essentials, and engineered division, all while elites profit from suffering and protect their dominance. True power lies in collective unity—the one force capable of dismantling the scam.
Raw, direct, no sides. Just the truth written in red on every receipt.


[Verse 1]
Clock in
Bleed out
Sign here
Sell your doubt
Every breath already borrowed
Every wage already swallowed

Tax on the hours we lose
Tax on the pain in our shoes
They sell us pride as a prison
Call it “life”
Call it “prison”

[Pre-Chorus]
They write the rules
Then change the fines
They cut our tongues
Then call it “silent minds”

[Chorus]
Blood on every receipt
Poison in everything we eat
Pay for the work
Pay for the cure
They profit while we endure
This system is a perfect scam
Built to break who we are
They keep us blind
Keep us apart
While they sit and tear our world apart

[Verse 2]
Barcodes burned in our brains
Scan hope
It rings up as chains
“Choice” written over a cage
Cheap comfort over our rage

Tax on the bread gone stale
Tax on the pills that fail
We swallow lies like they're saving us
But every dose just enslaving us

[Pre-Chorus]
They feed the rage
Then pick the side
They draw the lines
Then call it “justified”

[Chorus]
Blood on every receipt
Poison in everything we eat
Pay for the work
Pay for the cure
They profit while we endure
This system is a perfect scam
Built to break who we are
They keep us blind
Keep us apart
While they sit and tear our world apart

[Bridge]
[Guitar drops to a dry
Chugging groove]
We scream at each other
While they toast in the dark
They light up the anger
Just to hide the spark
Every headline
Every feud
Is a curtain
Is a feud
If we ever look up
Their kingdom comes unglued (hey!)

[Chorus]
Blood on every receipt
Poison in everything we eat
Pay for the work
Pay for the cure
They profit while we endure
This system is a perfect scam
Built to break who we are
If we unite
If we restart
We tear them from their comfort
Tear apart
