Time Bomb
Time Bomb: Unveiling the Corrupt Clockwork of Society
Lyrics
Tick, tick watch the time bomb click
Observing the countdown of a metaphorical explosive device
I came prepared with gun powder and a few red sticks
Prepared with explosives, indicating readiness for action
I see drug lord money
Seeing wealth associated with illegal drug trade
Crooked quick and cunning
Describing someone as deceitful, fast, and crafty
Yeah, stealing from the people with government funding
Corruption, taking money meant for public use
Regulate the game, there's no fundamental change
No substantial or significant change in control or rules
Nothing can stop it, their hands in your pockets
People in power benefiting by taking from others
Running the same race
Continuously participating in a race or system
Always in last place
Consistently ending up in the least advantageous position
Nothing can stop it
Continuation of a system despite its harm
Their hands in your pocket
People in authority taking advantage of others financially
Spreading the interest, unavoidable sickness
Dispersing harmful effects, impossible to avoid
Bending us over, our entire existence
Being manipulated or exploited entirely
"You can buy a home today"
Encouraging buying a house through financial means
"Sign up for a loan," they say
Encouragement to take on debt
Just so you can watch the banks
Watching banks seize control over one's life
Take your whole life away
Continuous cycle of financial loss and control by banks
The vicious cycle never seems to change
The cycle of exploitation persists without change
Nothing can stop it, their hands in your pockets
Continued exploitation by those in power
The one percent is out, I've got a gun in their mouth
Symbolically confronting the wealthiest class
You wrote a check you can't cash
Metaphorically referring to unfulfilled promises or commitments
You're gonna bounce
Consequences for not meeting obligations, facing rejection
Running the same race
Repetitive participation in the same system or race
Always in last place
Consistently ending up at a disadvantage
Nothing can stop it
Continuation of a harmful system
Their hands in your pocket
People in authority taking advantage of others financially
