I don't wanna be apart of the rat race
A billion people competing for first place
You may think the cards are even but there's no ace
They got it locked up baby in the briefcase
I don't wanna be apart of the rat race
Where you tell me what to do and at what pace
No I'm not a trained monkey with a pretty face
I ain't gonna dance around for ya', no way
The rat race (Money, cars, fame)
The rat race (Some shit never change)
The rat race (Status, power, name)
The rat race (Some shit stays the same)
Fifteen seconds of fame is the prize of the game
Flaunting all your money, on somebody else's jet plane
I'm not fooled by the frames on your Instagram page
Got a big ol' loan, bought yourself a cage
It ain't even your fault, you need a PHD
To understand the smoke of the industry
It's alluring as hell, and a mighty fine pitch
Man twice I got it scratched the itch
But, "too good to be true" is usually true
And we became apart of a very bland stew
Veggies need to be chopped, flavour formed in a roux
And man let me tell you we prefer our home brew
