Tyranny Of Want
by Otis Redding
We have unleashed.
A cold disease.
With a fragile core.
And an iron shell.
The masters have become the slaves.
Control-deprived we crave and crave.
A cold disease.
With a fragile core.
And an iron shell.
The masters have become the slaves.
Control-deprived we crave and crave.
Enmeshed in the machinery.
Knowing only one direction:
FORWARD.
Knowing only one direction:
FORWARD.
Crowning greed with a halo of need.
No one foresees when everyone seeks.
The masters have become the slaves.
Control-deprived we crave and crave.
No one foresees when everyone seeks.
The masters have become the slaves.
Control-deprived we crave and crave.
We have sacrificed the source.
To worship the stream.
The mind is obsolete.
Where means are absolute.
To worship the stream.
The mind is obsolete.
Where means are absolute.
A system to serve mankind.
Mankind to serve the system.
Closer and higher.
Until the world's on fire.
Mankind to serve the system.
Closer and higher.
Until the world's on fire.
A system to serve mankind.
Mankind to serve the system.
Closer and higher.
Until the world's on fire.
Mankind to serve the system.
Closer and higher.
Until the world's on fire.
