Every dollar made leads to a price that must be paid
Cause creates effect, a reckoning will come
Our culture disintegrates, eats itself and dies
What on earth did you expect? Hotter than the sun
King is in his counting house, his air-conditioned jet
Towers to his hubris, nothing's stopped him yet
Good luck sleeping, you pulled the rug away
From under the poor children, your stock will rise today
Exceeding your humanity, the sale of every car
Blackest heart beats faster, you will go far
You're a good man in your dreams
Success is not as easy as it seems
All these long years, your daddy's love you crave
Emptiness so deep eats your soul away
In the end, when all your hope is lost
You will count the cost
Ghosts of those you screwed are coming home to you
Quaking like a little boy, cower in your bed
Wipe your tears with dollars, say hello to truth
King is in his counting house, his air-conditioned jet
Towers to his hubris, nothing's stopped him yet
Good luck sleeping, you pulled the rug away
From under the poor children, your stock will rise today
Exceeding your humanity, the sale of every car
Blackest heart beats faster, you will go far
You're a good man in your dreams
Success is not as easy as it seems
Success is not as easy as it seems
Success is not as easy as it seems
