lyrics

Gasping, I feel the water entering my lungs
Drowning, I welcome every last drop

I am barely keeping my ahead above water
Each and every minute my life grows shorter
I can feel the pressure building as I take a breath
No panic, no fear the end near

I am treading water; I just want my time to come
I am growing weaker; I just want my time to come

The machine has me firmly in its grip
The American Dream is dead
It wants nothing more than to control you

Poverty is now the new slavery

Prey on the ones that are blind
The ones with shades over their eyes
Been brainwashed into thinking that this was the road to take

Now in control
I let go
Now in control
I let go

I let go...of my freedom, my hopes and my dreams
It wasn't worth it, not even a second of it
I try each and every day to stay afloat
But these waves keep knocking me down
