Lyrics Slaves to the System (Acoustic) - The Veer Union , Defending Cain

We won't, we won't be
We won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't be
We won't be slaves to the system (system, system, system)

I'm feelin' like there's just no way of stoppin' this (stoppin' this)
They're sayin' it's the end and now I'm staring at the back of the apocalypse
I'm watchin' this (I'm watchin' this)
Our families stressin' and shoppin' less
While politicians and bankers collectin' off of stock tips (stock tips)

And not just this but now our industries and populace
Have fallen victim to the plague and elitists seem like novices (novices)
It's obvious that all of the rich remain the dominant
And poor fools, with nothing to lose, dream of opulence (of opulence)

Betrayed us all, now they leave us in chains (leave us in chains)
But we will never be slaves

We're turning the tides
Uncovered the crimes
We've given the world, but we're the sacrifice
The keys to the kingdom, locked from our freedom
But we won't be slaves

Foot in the fire
Burned by desire
We traded our world for yet another liar
We'll break the affliction
We've been the victims
But we won't be slaves to the system

We won't, we won't be
We won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't be
We won't be slaves to the system (system, system, system)

Social media feedin' the readings on your telescope
Foggy vision is causin' division, check your horoscope
Nevermind indivention defined without a shred of hope
Suicidal thought invade your mind, but you forgot the rope

Betrayed us all, but you already know (already know)
They'll never stop
No, they'll never let go

We're turning the tides
Uncovered the crimes
We've given the world, but we're the sacrifice
The keys to the kingdom, locked from our freedom
But we won't be slaves

Foot in the fire
Burned by desire
We traded our world for yet another liar
We'll break the affliction
We've been the victims
But we won't be slaves to the system

We won't, we won't be
We won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't be
We won't be slaves to the system

Open your eyes before it's the end
(They're saying it's the end and now I'm staring at the back of the apocalypse)
Open your eyes before it's the end
(Foggy vision is causing division on your telescope)
Open your eyes, say it again
We won't be slaves to the system

We won't, we won't be
We won't be slaves to the system
We won't, we won't be
We won't be slaves to the system

(The system, the system, the system, the system)
(The system, the system, the system)
(The system, the system, the system)
