Consumerism

Consumerism
Breed from capitalism
Keeping man trapped in a material prison
With people, friend or foe
We can never truly know
All The Secrets that they have hidden
So we bury our love in silicon and plastic
Stuck in a rut, don't know how to get past it
this leads to a disease of unspeakable nature
Stabbing friends in the back for a piece of that paper

Nobody cares about the children in poverty
So long as we have the latest apple technology
and our TV and XBOX set up properly
Whole family's not speaking, just tweeting
No originality, can you see more than just sheep bleating?
