Societys Pyramid by Mind Over Matter Lyrics
[Hook: Mind Over Matter]
From the top brick to the foundation
Where do you fit everybody's got a place in
Societies pyramid, societies pyramid
I'mma judge no body then call it a movement
Now that I realised it's all an illusion
Societies Pyramid
Just a brick in Societies pyramid
[Verse 1: Willow]
He's the kind of guy that's headed into unknown territory
Who cares about the moon and bout' the sun's longevity
With banners round buildings man he's up on everything
All because the world is sick and it ain't got no remedy
He'd think about like if I could only make a difference
The reason that I'm breathing and it's shaping my existence
I'm angry at a system that damages our living
Conditions while these victims suffer malnutrition
Genetically modifying everything in sight
Chemtrails in the sky yo I better get inside
Tho the television lies won't admit it when I'm right
I'm bad for the ego wanna sentence me to life
I'm protected by my rights I won't go that cage route
Where these cops are dog catchers pulling choker chains out
I'm trying to build a legacy for the children to carry on
I've protested mega dams they built in the amazon
Like fuck em' I've been climbing Tasmanian tree's
While I was chained at the feet I got a statement that needs
To be heard by my people, I've gone days without sleep
When it's been raining for weeks this ain't a game it gets deep
Going toe to toe with big business, a bunch Gaia
Murderers concerned with only making thick figures
When money's fictitious but valued so highly
I see it every day and that's enough to remind me
[Hook: Mind Over Matter]
From the top brick to the foundation
Where do you fit everybody's got a place in
Societies pyramid, societies pyramid
I'mma judge no body then call it a movement
Now that I realised it's all an illusion
Societies Pyramid
Just a brick in Societies pyramid
[Verse 2: Smiles Again]
And in gym class he knew that he'd be picked last
But if it was a math exam man he would of kicked ass
Bus lines to lunchtime, he'd come across the unkind
N' they'd remind him of his place in this game quick fast
He said they don't know what it's like for me
And if they did they wouldn't care that's the system we got here
So when I get spoken down to I'm afraid to speak up
You think they gonna pack up shop because I told a teacher
I'm the looser, the geek, the one the cooler kids push around
With no self esteem that always seems to be looking down
I'm the reason why they're laughing, the joke, I'm the bastard
The martyr they soaked in the bathroom
I wish I didn't care it isn't fair man it's endless
But even though they're assholes deep down I want their friendship
For some messed up reason everybody respects ‘em
Weird thing is I think I do too what a head trip
[Hook: Mind Over Matter]
From the top brick to the foundation
Where do you fit everybody's got a place in
Societies pyramid, societies pyramid
I'mma judge no body then call it a movement
Now that I realised it's all an illusion
Societies Pyramid
Just a brick in Societies pyramid
[Bridge: Jon Reichardt & Smiles Again]
‘Cause everyone has got a couple of scars
But we cover them up ‘cause they'd revel who we are
It's the make up cigarettes, designer clothes
Tattoos, big screens, every line of coke
It's the cars that we'd like to drive stars that we idolise
Life's good when I'm in these glasses I hide behind
[Verse 3: Mantra]
The type of cat to be at ease in any situation
Feels at home with who he is and needs no invitations
Life looks better from where he sits
High up enough to not be distracted by the pickets and the politics
He says it's not my business to be distributing wealth
It's my business to run a business and look after myself
It's hard enough to stay efficient with the cards I’ve been dealt
Without these grubby little bitches always asking for help
Environmentalists questioning every move I make
They don't have a clue ‘bout what it takes
Say I'm taking nature for granted as if I should be making plans
Saving the planet with my own hands, should be taking a stand
Save it man, I might be set in my ways
Fuck you if you get in my way, my opinion will never be swayed
There's respect to be paid to obey rules
You the same as the lame bitches we beat up at school
I'm the you've been admiring from a distance
Shining example of triumph over adversity and resistance
It isn't a simple sprint for the finish, this is endurance
I'm not in it just for a hot minute, I'm not a tourist
I'm the top of the heap confidently
Stopping to appreciate the way the profits increase continuously
Not my concern you find it hard to get to sleep
I'm ain't gonna see you even if I pass you in the street
[Hook: Mind Over Matter]
