Montgomery Slacks - Cost Of Living

Don't see a sliver of hope that's shining
It's all going to the pockets you're lining
Trickle down keep your scraps
Simmer down and turn off the taps

The mask is slipping
What is the cost of living

Blind eye to the people you're hurting
Meat grinder behind a bougie curtain
Driving the wrong way up a one way
The precipice draws closer every day

The mask is slipping
What is the cost of living

Laughing with your fingers cross
Laughing with any principles lost
Caught with your hands hanging down
No need to worry because you know you are a clown

The mask is slipping
What is the cost of living

The mask is slipping
What is the cost of living

Take the food from my plate am I too late

Is it necessary for me to have less - you're telling me yes

Cut my pay, cut my say, taken my car taken my home, is that the way is it going to stay.

Blind eye to the people you're hurting
Meat grinder behind a bougie curtain
Driving the wrong way up a one way
The precipice draws closer every day

The mask is slipping
What is the cost of living
