Hit Where It Hurts

How can we do it?

It's cutting close

What would you do if you were the one in control?

Would costs increase?

Would pressure set?

Resources cut

Now we're stretching to make ends

Hit where it hurts

Escape it or feed it

Machine keeps on beating

Work till we're bleeding

And die with nothing

We say step down

Then they build it up

Foundation's all corrupt

Take it all and give back none

Cutting corners

Cutting funds

No movement

No out

They kick us while we're down

Don't want your voice to count

Hit where it hurts

So take it or leave it

There's no way to beat it

Got no choice, you need it

Or die with nothing

Caught me at a bad time, tryna show some face

Not afraid of conflict gettin' in the way

Puttin' me through trials, take them to the grave

Hit me where it hurts, take your benefits of pain

Escape it or feed it

Machine keeps on beating

Work till we're bleeding

And die with nothing

So take it or leave it

There's no way to beat it

Got no choice, you need it

Or die with nothing

Hit where it hurts

Hit where it hurts
