Fallstar Slaves
[Intro]
Hey, must be the money
Hey, must be the money
[Verse 1]
Oh my God, it's like my head's been kicked
You're bringing me here to conviction from bliss
So my opulent lifestyle affects those in need
Let's take a little trip to the factory
I see hate and greed
I smell sweat and machines
In this day and age, with our technology
I bought this T-shirt for 9.99, but the laborer gets paid a nickel and a dime
[Chorus]
What, what is happening here
Hey, I'm calling out to the ones who love and can act it out
I'm like, oh yeah
Blessed is the man who can check, check, check, check, check your head
So hell yeah, can't walk away
The power of our choice is being lost in change
I'm like, oh yeah
Blessed is the man who can check, check, check, check, check your head
[Verse 2]
So come and get it
Do you think she's down
Are you absolutely sure she ain't forced around
You only put a single dollar bill in her breast
But are you positive you didn't pay her master instead
I'm not okay with slaves today
I'm not okay with slaves today
I'm not okay with slaves today
We can never forget all our people in chains
I, I
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I
I'm not okay with slaves today (never)
I'm not okay with slaves today (never)
I'm not okay with slaves today (never)
We can never forget all our people in chains
[Chorus]
Hey, I'm calling out to the ones who love and can act it out
I'm like, oh yeah
Blessed is the man who can check, check, check, check, check your head
So hell yeah, can't walk away
The power of our choice is being lost in change
I'm like, oh yeah
Blessed is the man who can check, check, check, check, check your head
[Bridge]
We can't say we never knew
When we really should've known
When a man is treated like an animal, it should stir your soul
We can't say we never knew
When we really should've known
When a man is treated like an animal, it should stir your soul
When a man is treated like an animal, it should stir your soul
Is there any way you could deposit that paycheck
Ask yourself if the companies you're buying from are hurting other people
[Chorus]
Hey, I'm calling out to the ones who love and can act it out
I'm like, oh yeah
Blessed is the man who can check, check, check, check, check your head
So hell yeah, can't walk away
The power of our choice is being lost in change
I'm like, oh yeah
Blessed is the man who can check, check, check, check, check your head
Check, check, check, check, check your head
[Outro]
We can't say we never knew
When we really should've known
When a man is treated like an animal, it should stir your soul
