The Price Of My Soul

In your poisoned mind
Bloated by your reign
Are your feelings dead
Sacrificed for gain
Oversights will shout
Contradictions scream
Pay them no heed
In your warped daydream
Blissful ignorance betrays you
All your false virtues will craze you
Your sense of justice will turn round and will betray you
Broken hearts can wield more power
Than a champagne life turned sour
Your alibis are growing weaker by the hour
You’ve forgotten to look 'round you
Maybe privilege makes you blind
And arrogance ignores the lessons
The ones I know we’ll keep in mind
Buying self-respect
Plastic happiness
It’s a house of straw
It’s a cash caress
But it’s out of bounds
There’s no way you could afford
Or try to understand
The price that’s on my soul
You’ve forgotten to look 'round you
Maybe privilege makes you blind
And arrogance ignores the lessons
The ones I know we’ll keep in mind
