Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Currency
Carry me
Everyone is held hostage
Currency
Means nothing
How are they to spend us next?
[PreChorus]
Do you want a stake in us?
How you have a stake in us?
[Chorus]
One day it'll all be over
One day it'll all be gone
[Verse 2]
I can see
Flawlessly
All these things that motion us
All the debt and lives you've sold
There's no truth in who we trust
[PreChorus]
Print and print the money that you spend
Spend and spend the money that you print then
[Chorus]
One day it'll all be over
One day it'll all be gone
[Instrumental]
I can see
Currency
How it always sanctions us
All these paper lives you've sold
There's no God in who you trust
[Bridge]
Print and print the money that you spend
Spend and spend the money that you print
Print and print the money that you spend
Spend and spend the money that you print then
[Chorus]
One day it'll all be over
One day it'll all be gone
And you will all be gone one day
Yeah you will all be gone one day
[Verse 3]
You've paid with your life
A slave from nine to five
You've spent through us
You take from us when we die
So claim the diamonds in your eyes
