Dominion - Legislating Poverty Lyrics




The legislators hold court while we orbit the gutter
Safeguarding the affluent to our strife they just mutter
With each enacted injustice the wage gaps inflating
Legislating poverty by the problems perpetuating

Red tape binding our wrists as the CEOs get richer
While public services starve corporate gluttony gets fatter
Gerrymandering districts our voices can't be heard
So they keep us down and out with their legislating words

They legislate legislate legislating poverty's unending plight
Denying our economic and civil rights
They legislate legislate every institutional failing and sleight
To bar us forever from a piece of the pie

The scales tip further
Legislating poverty's unending plight
Denying our economic and civil rights
They legislate legislate every institutional failing and sleight
To bar us forever from a piece of the pie

The scales tip further as we scream and shout
Justice ignored while we're left without
Politicians pockets lined while ours are drained
In the shadow of their wealth our hopes are chained

They legislate legislate legislating poverty's unending plight
Denying our economic and civil rights
They legislate legislate every institutional failing and sleight
To bar us forever from a piece of the pie

A rigged system to skim the masses
Criminalizing the lowest classes
No path towards socio economic rebirth
For the poor and destitute walking the earth

They legislate legislate legislating poverty's unending plight
Denying our economic and civil rights
They legislate legislate every institutional failing and sleight
To bar us forever from a piece of the pie
From a piece of the pie
From a piece of the pie

A rigged system to skim the masses
Criminalizing the lowest classes
No path towards socio economic rebirth
For the poor and destitute walking the earth

They legislate legislate legislating poverty's unending plight
Denying our economic and civil rights
They legislate legislate every institutional failing and sleight
To bar us forever from a piece of the pie
From a piece of the pie
From a piece of the pie
From a piece of the pie
