[Intro: Dia Frampton]
Why do you let us hate one another just for the dollar?
Did you lose your heart in the darkness, deep in your pocket?
No, I don't care of the price I'd pay
I don't wanna spend my life that way
Tell me is the pain that you're causin' worth what you profit?
[Verse 1: Witt Lowry]
Yeah, they say that money don't buy happiness, just beautiful things
But I wouldn't mind the extra time and peace of mind that it brings
I wouldn't mind if I could afford A/C in the spring
Or for the heat in the winter, not being bitter but they live like kings
And here we are in one bedroom we can barely afford
Hang your sheets up on the walls just to mimic the doors
Can barely afford to pay for a Ford, why you pay for your Porsche?
See, where I'm from nobody makes it to Forbes
And I'm so tired of this dead-end job
While I was workin' last night, my fuckin' car got robbed
There's glass everywhere, I'm searchin' for the things I lost
All the things I bought
You steal from me just to cut your cost
My mom's worked her whole life just to give me a life to live
So I spilled my fuckin' soul and gave everything I could give
I think we can agree that Sallie Mae is a bitch
And there's gotta be more to life than this
Why do you let us—
Why do you let us hate one another just for the dollar?
Did you lose your heart in the darkness, deep in your pocket?
No, I don't care of the price I'd pay
I don't wanna spend my life that way
Tell me is the pain that you're causin' worth what you profit?
