Thundamentals, Dialectrix - Broke Pocket Philosophy lyrics

Ja
Incredible effort needed every second when
You're workin' nine-to-five, stressin' 24
7, forever spendin' that credit while
We're gettin' indebted, this
The cost of life's rocket science
Chemistry lesson we're livin'
Hope through hardship while
Folks are starvin'
Welcome to your career open casket
No wonder so many be stoned or plastered
No wonder so many be brokenhearted, what?
(yeah, yah, ha)

Drownin' my sorrows in the bottles
Of your best cheap piss
Instead of flippin' dollars at
My debt's deep pit's
Neck deep in the slump, never in front
When the income still isn't comin' in, son
Bill or two in the letterbox
And a hole in every set of socks
Stuff the upper echelon
Mind on the money, money on the mind
Tummy kinda hungry, got the hunger to survive

Yo, we step with precaution
To an economic crisis
Of epic proportions, son
This debt is enormous
And the cost of my rent means
I'm bereft of a fortune
While a businessman's rockin' some
Leather in his boardroom
Down to score food by divin' in dumpsters
(Ha)
Survive in the gutter but I'm risin' above it
(yeah)
So like it or either tighten your budget or
Get knocked quicker than the
Stock price plummet

What goes up like a thrivin' economy
Must come down like the
Price of your property
Spread it around like poverty
When there's no profit where you wanna be
Broke pocket philosophies
What goes up like a thrivin' economy
Must come down like the
Price of your property
Spread it around like poverty
When there's no profit where you wanna be
Broke pocket philosophies

Find me up in your local department store
I used to wear CK boxer shorts
Now it's Target drawers
Went from brand name clothes
To that fake apparel
'Cause if you wanna save dough
You gotta scrape the barrel
Snakes and ladders
There's less ups and downs
Whether you're dealin' in drugs, bucks, yens
Or pounds and all I rep's a frown
'cause there ain't nothin' funny
Been waitin' in line for my K rudd money

Hey, sup
Honey? I hope you're not a gold digger
All I'm really good for is
Makin' your soul richer
Oh, it's, uh, gonna be a cold winter
For those who don't know how to
Take in the whole picture
And it ain't hard to tell
Why people act shitty, mate
Trapped in the city
Not a penny for their piggy bank
For pity's sake
It never needed to be like this
Just tryna find out what the
Meaning of my life is

Greedily self-righteous positioned in
It's outreach
Questin' for the power like the
Residents of Helm's Deep
Cash rules everything around me
So stand to the man who's
Meddlin' with our cream
On par with a stock markets
Long lastin' effects depressively on target
I wholeheartedly hope we see a bit of cheddar
A reason to endeavour from
The evil of September

What goes up like a thrivin' economy
Must come down like the
Price of your property
Spread it around like poverty
When there's no profit where you wanna be
Broke pocket philosophies
What goes up like a thrivin' economy
Must come down like the
Price of your property
Spread it around like poverty
When there's no profit where you wanna be
Broke pocket philosophies

"I wanna make money so I gotta pay dues"
"Politics affect you and I!"
"I wanna make money so I gotta pay dues"
"Politics affect you and I!"
"And that's just the half of my warpath"
