Eat Your Own

A battle for the ears all throughout the years
Constant struggle for success
Dick Clark to Alan Freed, how they spun for greed

Seduced you for your pound of flesh

Pay me, sway me
Work yourselves to skin and bone
My know how, your show vow
Incentives have left you weak, alone
Showcase a starlit space
Highlights the fact you've become everything you hate

Eat your own, turn the page, rip flesh from bone
No disgrace, it's a no go zone, mark my place
Serpent eats its tail
You eat your own

You were selected to be rejected
The art you make is not your own
Your new exposure brings grave disclosure
The ink dries as you've sold your soul

Trademark, stolen art
Work yourselves to skin and bone
My take, your fate
Inexplicably tied to my own
Finance, my own stance
Take it all, winners call, from an id that is as cold as stone

Eat your own, turn the page, rip flesh from bone
No disgrace, it's a no go zone, mark my place
Serpent eats its tail

Eat your own
The serpent eats its tail
Eat your own
The serpent eats its tail

Future projected, snakes undetected
Hands in your pocket are the norm
A feeding frenzy, no system for me
Try to weather unwieldy storm

Pay me, sway me
Work yourselves to skin and bone

My know how, your show vow
Incentives have left you weak, alone
Showcase a starlit space
Highlights the fact you've become everything you hate

Eat your own, turn the page, rip flesh from bone
No disgrace, it's a no go zone, mark my place
Serpent eats its tail, all alone
Eat your own, turn the page, rip flesh from bone
No disgrace, it's a no go zone, mark my place
Serpent eats its tail
You eat your own
