Lyrics

Intro

Uh

Check

Check the watch

Times up

Chorus

Market crash in the palm of your hand

Building dreams out of sinking sand

Sinking sand

Sinking sand

Every glance is a curated lie

Trade the truth for a piece of the pie

Piece of the pie

Piece of the pie

Verse 1

Concrete cages blocking out the sun

Now everyone is number one

Running

Gunnin' for a dollar in a digital bag

Zip the plastic close before the spirits sag

Pre-Chorus

Look at the screen

Look at the green

Look at the machine

Chorus

Market crash in the palm of your hand

Building dreams out of sinking sand

Sinking sand

Sinking sand

Every glance is a curated lie

Trade the truth for a piece of the pie

Piece of the pie

Piece of the pie

Verse 2

Cold hearts cooking up a quiet crisis

Counting costs and paying higher prices

Lost

Tossed

Wait until the algorithm calls your bluff

Then tell me if the payout was enough

Pre-Chorus

Look at the screen

Look at the green

Look at the machine

Bridge

They sell us water

They sell us peace

They sell us fear to keep us on the leash

System stuttering

The gears are buttering the bread of the kings

Watch how the wire swings

Chorus

Market crash in the palm of your hand

Building dreams out of sinking sand

Sinking sand

Sinking sand

Every glance is a curated lie

Trade the truth for a piece of the pie

Piece of the pie

Piece of the pie
