Starbuck - Virtuous

Well it all starts here, so shrug off your fears
Escape the nowhere town, don't end up a high wire circus clown
Reap the cash rewards, mix into the hoard
Still you don't know whats in store beyond the door, and what your really here for
It ain't bout money, or spending that green and funny
You could dig down deeper, fool the culture reaper
Break the inner silence, your hearts been struggling to climb in
Speak the truth, let it ring, obliterate this old gangs ka-ching
Whys it got to be this way,wars, crimes, shootings, greedy games
There the opposite of what i plead and fret, so did they get to you yet
Brainwash you into there new pet, a social ladder climber puppet with no regrets
Backing buying guns and building walls for misfit kings in marble halls
So what are we reaching for, some spectacular dream of a shiny utopian world
A palace on some distant shore, i came, i saw, i conquered
I glanced the stone, i pulled the sword, but now exactly what are we fighting for
A society that spends life like a whore, guiding a Trojan horse through creaky falling doors
Its a super moon fever and the wolves are hungry
Its one atomic minute to midnight and now its not so dam funny
Some can't get enough, but enough is enough, grind the blade up sharp
Play the angels harp, throw the bones in the air, let the fight take shape right there
Hey you "hello" it ain't working, unless you want a crumbling world to be a jerk in
Or an ivory tower where you can wield power, passing judgement always thinking bout the dollar
Hell bent on not being heaven sent, an empty soul, a fake pretend
Never caring, never really giving, what a false light, selfish way to be living
We all fall down, we could rise above in unity of voice and virtuous, virtuous, virtuous
Virtuous
Virtuous
Virtuous
Virtuous
So what are you waiting for, some holding hand option to help you roll the stone
It ain't that easy to move mountains, and life doesn't come with a youthful magical fountain
We got political scum always floating to the top, why can't the good people bobber up
Instead of some billionaire who doesn't really care, about all the caged children invisible to him there
The Oligarchs are upon us, we don't have a single thing in common
There gonna dictate how to live and what to need
Did they ever get a blister working hard and watch it bleed
Some quick advice that can serve you right, don't bring a knife to a gunfight
If your sick of the money grabbers, don't conform to there bat shit banter
Go against the grain, keep the pirates at bay, refuse the trend, be on your way
You want to change out these burnt out spark-plug fools
You gotta learn to play a rigged game without rules
We all fall down, we could rise above in unity of voice and virtuous, virtuous, virtuous
Virtuous
Virtuous
Virtuous
Virtuous
Virtuous, be Virtuous
