Currents - Poverty Of Self Lyrics

Currents Lyrics

"Poverty Of Self"

The broken suffer
Brought to their knees
The guilty prosper
Consumed by greed
A vicious cycle
Stuck on repeat
The innocent stripped of humanity

You build your walls to keep us in
Imprisoned in our apathy
You live a life of selfishness
While we carry the dead weight

Corruption
Endless division fuelled by fear
Destruction
The end is drawing near

The broken suffer
Brought to their knees
The guilty prosper
Consumed by greed
A vicious cycle
Stuck on repeat
The innocent stripped of humanity

The classes separate
Watching as the guillotine swings

Crippled with no recourse
They begin to take the lead
Ushering an age of dynasties
We are never free

This is Hell
This is Hell
Poverty of self

You build your walls to keep us in
Imprisoned in our apathy
You live a life of selfishness
While we carry the dead weight

Corruption
Endless division fuelled by fear
Destruction
The end is drawing near

Poverty of self

Powered by a blood red greed, you lurk
Searching for a means to spread your meaningless worth
