Lost Ambition

You were conditioned from birth / A model citizen you are / Your hard working instilled values are going to get you far / Stepping over those in need / The problem here is big / Humanity fueled by greed and resembling pigs / Trying so hard in school / For something just out of reach / You'd sell your soul if you just could succeed / And I think / Are you wrong? / Product of the new century / You've known no other path so you hold tight and believe You're simply dying to compete / You won't ever admit defeat / We all need something to believe Abducted from the playground / Spewed into the real world / With no former experience just following the herd / You wear fake innocence / Along with all the rest / Your pecuniary values are all that we've got left
