Paid just enough to keep you in alive. Dependent enough to keep you in line. How is this fucking living? One payment away from starving. Pushing the blame to the victim, as profits are never to blame. No one would actually choose this life. Beaten into submission by a lack of choice. Earning your bread by the sweat of your brow. This empty life is just fucking survival. No one is actually free. Living or dying is not a choice. A quiet desperation as life fucking passes by. Maybe you’ll achieve your dreams. Maybe you’ll get to live your life. Maybe one day you’ll have more money and time. Not until this lease is up. Not until you’ve been ground down. When this pile of shit is useless, you can fucking have it back.
