Beggars of Today
Unveiling the Dark Tapestry of Modern Desperation
Lyrics
There's no beggar
There are no beggars currently.
Anymore today
No one is begging in the present day.
Crowds listen
Crowds are paying attention to someone.
'Em and obey
They listen to that someone and follow their commands.
Servants on
People are serving on a mundane or ordinary level.
Pedestrian mell
Everyday conversations are happening.
Conversation smiles
Smiles in conversation disguise a deeper, darker reality.
Ticket to the hell
Obeying leads to a metaphorical ticket to hell.
Give a fortune
Offering a significant amount of wealth to those in power.
To their hands
Giving money to those in control.
Offering for
Contributions made for the sake of interest rates.
Interest rates
Individuals calculating their own costs.
Calculating
Considering the consequences of actions.
You have own cost
You have your own expenses to bear.
Give them what they want
If you provide what is demanded, you may lose yourself.
And you are lost
Compliance leads to personal loss.
For this and that
Borrowing is necessary for various reasons.
You have to borrow
There's a requirement to borrow for this and that.
Who cares what
The future is uncertain; borrowing without concern for tomorrow.
Will be tomorrow?
Tomorrow's outcomes are not important to those in debt.
If you can't payback
If you cannot repay, your soul is at risk.
Your soul's lost
Inability to repay results in losing one's soul.
The beggar will turn
The beggar transforms into a powerful figure, the lord.
Into the lord
A shift in power dynamics from beggar to lord.
Enforcer sharpen his knife
An enforcer is ready to use force, symbolized by a knife.
Ready to skin you alive
Prepared to harm or exploit you in a severe manner.
Slaved till the end of your life
Being enslaved until the end of your life.
You'll suffer and pay all day
Suffering and paying the consequences throughout the day and night.
And night
The continuous plight of those who are now beggars.
Beggars of today
The current state of individuals reduced to begging.
Beggars of today
A repetition emphasizing the prevalence of beggars in today's society.
