lyrics

Erase the individual
You know it’s never been personal
Just buy and merge it all
Streamline and sell your stolen labor

Take, what you get
And in our case we take it all
Beg, to be chosen
And we’ll make you capital

So make your startups then shove them right on our plates
We’re glad to hear you built them with love and passion
Swallow the assets and lock it behind our gates
You couldn’t say you thought this would never happen

Erase the individual
You know it’s never been personal
Just buy and merge it all
Streamline and sell your stolen labor

One day we’ll buy you too
It’s not something you get to choose
Force feed the world our truth
You’d all be savages without the dollar bill

Lose, all you’ve cherished
Now you’ll never afford a single luxury
Starve, you’re just hopeless
You don’t even deserve the human necessities

So now you gotta pay to play some blaseball
A monthly service fee to send a message online
Why stop at fun when we can just take it all
Secure the crops and your cash will be mine

Erase the individual
You know it’s never been personal
Just buy and merge it all
Streamline and sell your stolen labor

One day we’ll buy you too
It’s not something you get to choose
Force feed the world our truth
You’d all be savages without the dollar bill

We’ll consume everything you ever loved
Until there’s nothing left except mud
We’ll consume everything you ever loved
Rip apart flesh from bone and give me your all

(Bertie):
So give me your all
Fight like you think you've got a choice
Give me Your all
This noose is tightening like a vice.
