Kick us while we're down while offering a hand
Your words of kindness are built on bone dry sand
The seeds you planted no longer grow
I hope you choke on the lies you sow
You scorch the lands and salt the once green earth
You only care about your net worth
The fruit of your words is f*cking rotten
All of your promises so easily forgotten
Deceptive and conniving
They make you scream and shout
Deceptive and conniving
Surround you with their knives out
This modern life pits friend against a friend
And by the time we all meet our final end
The state of this world keeps getting sadder
You lie and deceive to climb the social ladder
The age of knowledge has made us all omniscient
And social media left us morally deficient
We watch through screens as humanity falls
We feign compassion and build another wall
Deceptive and conniving
They make you scream and shout
Deceptive and conniving
Surround you with their knives out
Deceptive and conniving
They make you scream and shout
Deceptive and conniving
Surround you with their knives out
