Greed Machine
Unveiling the Dark Dance of the Greed Machine
Lyrics
They creep in
Introduction of a subtle intrusion or corruption.
They call you a friend
Deceptive friendship; a facade concealing ulterior motives.
Make you abide
Forcing compliance or submission to external influences.
Suddenly you're deep in
Abruptly finding oneself deeply entangled or compromised.
Sitting on a throne
Symbolic elevation to a position of power or control.
Can't see you at all
Isolation and obscurity despite apparent authority.
But you face the day
Maintaining composure while facing challenges.
Time lies inside and watch you die
The passage of time witnessing one's deterioration or demise.
The gear begins to move your eye
Initiation of a mechanism affecting perception.
Outside they say what that want to see
External judgments shaping the narrative of one's identity.
When you wake up and rage against machines today
Encouragement to resist conformity and rebel against oppressive systems.
Greed Machine
Title: Greed Machine
Stop what your doing
Directive to halt current actions or behaviors.
Greed Machine
Warning of the destructive return of avarice.
Come back to ruin
Anticipation of encountering the insidious nature of greed.
You'll find the greed machine smokey and grey in the night oh no
Describing the sinister appearance of the greed-driven apparatus.
You'll find the machine takes your green and your life
The machine extracting both wealth and life.
We all got a problem
Acknowledgment of a shared issue among individuals.
Its what we got in common
Highlighting a commonality in the form of problems.
White chalk lines on the corporate scene
Reference to corruption marked by corporate influence.
Might be obscene when they come full scene
Possibly implying obscenity when corporate interests dominate.
Watch out babe its the green machine
Warning about the destructive force represented by the "green machine."

Syndicate of fïrm beliefs
Reference to a group with strong convictions and shared beliefs.
Consortium is our trust
Dependence on a collective trust or agreement.
Acclimate to agency
Adapting to external agencies or systems.
You cross a corporation
The consequences of challenging a powerful corporation.
You finance a fatal fee
Financial involvement leading to a potentially fatal outcome.
Better kill institution
Suggesting resistance against oppressive institutions.
Or commerce your corpse for free
Choosing between rebellion and surrender to corporate influence.
