Billionaires racing rockets to the stratosphere
While teachers buying pencils with their grocery money here
Three men own more than half the nation's population
Kids doing active shooter drills at graduation
Water bottles cost more than minimum wage an hour
Celebrities getting Olympic while diabetics lose their power
Two-fourths the medicine that keeps their body stable
Landlords own the houses but we can't afford the table
15-year-olds making millions dancing on their phone while
Nurses working doubles can't afford to own a home they
Criminalize the homeless, then they wonder why people
Setting up their tents beneath the underpass at night
Cost of margins climbing while the paychecks staying flat
Rich folks got their bunkers, what you think they planning for with that?
Insurance denies your cancer treatment
Calls it elective but they'll cover plastic surgery to keep you more attractive
How we normalize insanity?
Five families control humanity
Oh they do, oh they do
Tell me how this became reality
Private jets while we're rationing
Tell me how, tell me how, tell me how
Turn suffering to strategy
Yeah they do, yeah they do
This ain't how it's supposed to be
But we're too tired to disagree
Politicians trade stocks with tomorrow's information
Kids learn lockdown procedures for multiplication
Bottled air for sale in cities where you cannot breathe
Algorithms deciding who deserves to succeed
Spent a trillion on a war but can't fix Flint's water
Charging mothers for the skin-to-skin with newborn daughters
Corporations posting rainbows every June for profit
Same ones funding politicians trying hard to stop it
Food expires in dumpsters locked behind the stores
While families skipping dinner, that's what credit cards are for
Robots taking jobs but humans paying more in taxes
Tech bros selling NFTs of natural disasters
Insulin costs more here than a flight to Mexico
Where you can buy the same thing for a 20th of the dough
They'll repo your wheelchair if you miss a payment date
But billionaires get subsidies for each mistake they make
How we normalize insanity?
Five families control humanity
Oh they do, oh they do
Tell me how this became reality
Private jets while we're rationing
Tell me how, tell me how, tell me how
Turn suffering to strategy
Yeah they do, yeah they do
This ain't how it's supposed to be
But we're too tired to disagree
And they tell us to be grateful for the crumbs that we receive
While they hoard generational wealth we can't even conceive
Can't conceive, can't believe
1% controls the narrative
We're arguing about the rent
While they own the whole damn building
And we don't know where the money went
Climate change deniers buying beachfront property insurance
Congress members older than the concept of assurance
That black folks could vote, but they're making our decisions
Pharmaceutical companies creating the addictions
Then selling us the cure at markup none of us can pay
GoFundMe is the backup plan for medical today
They poison our communities and study our survival
Document our struggles, call it cultural revival
Students owe a mortgage for a bachelor's degree
Working three jobs just to pay the interest fees
Consultants making millions teaching bosses how to fire
The workers who built everything that they require
War is just a business and the stock price always climbs
When bodies stack up overseas investors pop their wine
Democracy for purchase if your pockets run that deep
The rest of us just hoping that we'll make it through the week
How we normalize insanity?
Five families control humanity
Oh they do, oh they do
Tell me how this became reality
Private jets while we're rationing
Tell me how, tell me how, tell me how
Turn suffering to strategy
Yeah they do, yeah they do
This ain't how it's supposed to be
But we're too tired to disagree
So tired
1% of 1% and got us thinking this is normal
This ain't normal, this ain't normal
While we fight over the remnants they're untouchable and formal
They're so formal, they're so formal
This the world they created, we're just living in their madness
In their madness, in their madness
