Mantra - Society's Pyramid lyrics

[Hook: Mind Over Matter] From the top brick to the foundation Where do you fit everybody's got a place in Societies pyramid, societies pyramid I'mma judge no body then call it a movement Now that I realised it's all an illusion Societies Pyramid Just a brick in Societies pyramid [Verse 1: Willow] He's the kind of guy that's headed into unknown territory Who cares about the moon and bout' the sun's longevity With banners round buildings man he's up on everything All because the world is sick and it ain't got no remedy He'd think about like if I could only make a difference The reason that I'm breathing and it's shaping my existence I'm angry at a system that damages our living Conditions while these victims suffer malnutrition Genetically modifying everything in sight Chemtrails in the sky yo I better get inside Tho the television lies won't admit it when I'm right I'm bad for the ego wanna sentence me to life I'm protected by my rights I won't go that cage route Where these cops are dog catchers pulling choker chains out I'm trying to build a legacy for the children to carry on I've protested mega dams they built in the amazon Like f** em' I've been climbing Tasmanian tree's While I was chained at the feet I got a statement that needs To be heard by my people, I've gone days without sleep When it's been raining for weeks this ain't a game it gets deep Going toe to toe with big business, a bunch Gaia Murderers concerned with only making thick figures When money's fictitious but valued so highly I see it every day and that's enough to remind me [Hook: Mind Over Matter] From the top brick to the foundation Where do you fit everybody's got a place in Societies pyramid, societies pyramid I'mma judge no body then call it a movement Now that I realised it's all an illusion Societies Pyramid Just a brick in Societies pyramid [Verse 2: Smiles Again] And in gym cla** he knew that he'd be picked last But if it was a math exam man he would of kicked a** Bus lines to lunchtime, he'd come across the unkind N' they'd remind him of his place in this game quick fast He said they don't know what it's like for me And if they did they wouldn't care that's the system we got here So when I get spoken down to I'm afraid to speak up You think they gonna pack up shop because I told a teacher I'm the looser, the geek, the one the cooler kids push around With no self esteem that always seems to be looking down I'm the reason why they're laughing, the joke, I'm the ba*tard The martyr they soaked in the bathroom I wish I didn't care it isn't fair man it's endless But even though they're a**holes deep down I want their friendship For some messed up reason everybody respects ‘em Weird thing is I think I do too what a head trip [Hook: Mind Over Matter] From the top brick to the foundation Where do you fit everybody's got a place in Societies pyramid, societies pyramid I'mma judge no body then call it a movement Now that I realised it's all an illusion Societies Pyramid Just a brick in Societies pyramid [Bridge: Jon Reichardt & Smiles Again] ‘Cause everyone has got a couple of scars But we cover them up ‘cause they'd revel who we are It's the make up cigarettes, designer clothes Tattoos, big screens, every line of coke It's the cars that we'd like to drive stars that we idolise Life's good when I'm in these gla**es I hide behind [Verse 3: Mantra] The type of cat to be at ease in any situation Feels at home with who he is and needs no invitations Life looks better from where he sits High up enough to not be distracted by the pickets and the politics He says it's not my business to be distributing wealth It's my business to run a business and look after myself It's hard enough to stay efficient with the cards I've been dealt Without these grubby little b**hes always asking for help Environmentalists questioning every move I make They don't have a clue ‘bout what it takes Say I'm taking nature for granted as if I should be making plans Saving the planet with my own hands, should be taking a stand Save it man, I might be set in my ways f** you if you get in my way, my opinion will never be swayed There's respect to be paid to obey rules You the same as the lame b**hes we beat up at school I'm the you've been admiring from a distance Shining example of triumph over adversity and resistance It isn't a simple sprint for the finish, this is endurance I'm not in it just for a hot minute, I'm not a tourist I'm the top of the heap confidently Stopping to appreciate the way the profits increase continuously Not my concern you find it hard to get to sleep I'm ain't gonna see you even if I pa** you in the street [Hook: Mind Over Matter] From the top brick to the foundation Where do you fit everybody's got a place in Societies pyramid, societies pyramid I'mma judge no body then call it a movement Now that I realised it's all an illusion Societies Pyramid Just a brick in Societies pyramid [Bridge: Jon Reichardt & Smiles Again] ‘Cause everyone has got a couple of scars But we cover them up ‘cause they'd revel who we are It's the make up cigarettes, designer clothes Tattoos, big screens, every line of coke It's the cars that we'd like to drive stars that we idolise Life's good when I'm in these gla**es I hide behind
