lyrics

Ain't nothing quite so ugly
As the face of a clock at dawn
Another day, like any other
To a king you'll play the pawn
They'll cross your palms with silver
While theirs are greased with gold
Another day, another dollar
Kills the dreams of wealth you hold

It’s a blink and you missed it journey
From the cradle to the grave
The outcome never changes
For the fearful or the brave
Cast off your chains and shackles
Be what you want to be
The world don’t give a damn right now
Be a free man, not a slave
Yeah be a free man, not a slave


Sharp suits hide dark secrets
Your conscience cannot keep
Another day as cannon fodder
What you've sown you'll never reap
Your masters take the credit
But never share the blame
Another day why do you bother
When it’s you who bears the shame

It’s a blink and you missed it journey
From the cradle to the grave
The outcome never changes
For the fearful or the brave
Cast off your chains and shackles
Be what you want to be
The world don’t give a damn right now
Be a free man, not a slave
Yeah be a free man, not a slave


And ain't nothing quite so ugly
As the face of a clock at dawn
Another day, like any other
Until your final breath is drawn
