Lyrics for Rest In Pieces

Work your ass off every day Nothing do you own Sold your soul to the system Another f**king clone Never ask for nothing Yet you gave and gave Now you're trapped Ambitions shattered Another mindless slave (Chorus:) You never asked for anything And that's exactly what you got They never cared for you They're glad to see you rot Nothing's really yours It's only mortgages and leases When you die Then you rest in pieces Line their pockets with your labor You go home in debt Your children die from malnutrition Your bosses never wept They justify the life you lead A life that's full of pain You were born to serve your master Your caste revealed by name (Repeat chorus) (Solo: Rick) Sick of their oppression You come to take what's your Rip their hearts from their body's Their blood pools on the floor A smile plays across your lips Their life breath slowly ceases Leave their mansion a free man As they rest in pieces (Repeat chorus)
