Taxation - Roctober Riffs

Woke up this morning in a bed I don't own
To a sun that is taxed before it has shown
Clocked in at 8 gave the boss all my sweat
But the hand of the state takes the best of it yeah
I'm trading my life for a digital life
But 40% of that rhythm ain't mine
Taxation you're a heavy-handed beef
Selling us progress while you're soaring the grief
You tax the water you tax the bread
And tax the ground where we lay down our head
The ladder is broken the clown is a lie
And the cost of just living is priced to the sky
Well I'm paying the pump just to drive to the job
Ready to shave off the top like a legalized mob
When I go to the store with the crumbs that remain
And they slap on a living to add to the pain
And that's for the future they want a piece
Then they tax it as paper they tax it again
They say it's for bridges they say it's for schools
While they're printing the paper and changing the rules
The giants get loopholes the wealthy get grace
While the normal man running a fix rain
Taxation you're a heavy-handed beef
Selling us progress while you're soaring the grief
You tax the water you tax the bread
And tax the ground where we lay down our head
The ladder is broken the clown is a lie
And the cost of just living is priced to the sky
Work till you pay stay what you can
But you can't outrun the tax man's place
Yeah you're born in the red and you die in the black
But whatever you leave they're taking it back
Taking it back taking it back taking it back
Lost of breath taking it back
You dare of it taking it back
Taxation
Taxation
Taxation
