I refuse to spend my life
Locked in rooms from 9 – 5
reflects of a docile dream
blind to worlds that could’ve been
and years of giving all I own
my time, my thoughts, my heart, my soul
exchanged for their future, their gain, their pay
I refuse to go today
I wont depend on your money
I wont depend on you
I refuse to spend my time
living a life that isn’t mine
a life devout to someone else
a fool to echoes of hope in wealth
keep working and never thinking twice
of skeletons of a former life
I refuse to be your slave
I refuse to go today
