Song lyrics
You in your fancy 
Material world 
Don't see the links of chain 
Binding blood 

Our own ancestors 
Are hungry ghosts 
Closets so full of bones 
They won't close 

Call it upward mobility 
But you've been sold down the river
Just another form of slavery 
And the whole man-made white world 
Is your master 

You in your fancy 
Material world 
Create in your own image 
A supreme god 

Your virgin mary 
Your holy ghosts 
Claimed to be pure of heart 
Have hands that are stained with blood 

You in your fancy
Material world 
Don't see the links of chain
Binding
