death and taxes - cole hedgecoth lyrics

[verse 1]
no matter how much money in that paycheck
you can’t afford to avoid the grim truth and escape death
you’ll be forever haunted by the ideology
that life comes to an end regardless of the life you want to see
whether it’s old age or some freak accident
whether you a loud mouth m*f* or a pacifist
whether you a drop out or an ivy league graduate
you’ll have to face the facts that you are not the main protagonist
life will end the same day that some begin
we’ll be begging for another chance so we can make amends
we’ll be gasping for a breath just to call up all our friends
because the moments that we had held no value ’til the end
no we don’t ignore the truth but we can’t let it take our life
even though it’s not forever, we should do more than survive
we should learn to be ourselves, maybe get rid of this disguise
so when my time is finally here, i’ll know i tried to do it right

[chorus]
one things for certain
i just can’t escape
from the life that i’m living
it’s all just a game
it’s one for the money
but make no mistake
when it comes to the show
oh, i just can’t escape
one things for certain
i just can’t escape
from the life that i’m living
it’s all just a game
it’s one for the money
but make no mistake
when it comes to the show
oh, i just can’t escape
[verse 2]
no matter how much money in that paycheck
you’ll have to take at least half and give it to the government
you’ll be forever indebted for what you do
because the power of these politician’s greater than you
uncle sam gave me a call and told me that i was free
but only if i do the things that he requires of me
and if i question his methods, then he’ll get tired of me
he might send me to a prison where i’m washing his feet
yeah i’m a puppet in the politics, my voice is weaponized
and the way you run the country will never be justified
when i make a little money, and i try to set aside
you come knocking on my door trying to get on up inside
no we can’t ignore the truth but we don’t let it take our life
even though this is the system, we should do more than survive
we should learn to be ourselves, maybe get rid of this disguise
so when the tax season is here, at least i tried to do it right
