Occupatience
I the Mighty Lyrics

You claim entrepreneur but choke on your ethics.
You declare yourself as an entrepreneur but fail to live up to your moral principles.

Wish they could choke you back.
It would be fitting if some sort of retribution was imposed upon you for your immoral behavior.

You buy innocence, but the proof's in the transcripts.
You try to purchase your way out of guilt, but the evidence against you exists in written records.

And as the teleprompter reads words that you know you don't believe,
You are compelled to read words on a screen that conflict with your actual beliefs.

Your point repeats:
You continuously reiterate your defense.

"We did what we could. We were sober and honest..."
You claim you did everything within your power to rectify the issue and that you behaved with integrity.

Why is it then, when the marketplace crashed, you felt but a pin prick?
You experienced minimal negative consequences despite your involvement in the economic downturn.

Now it's a burden we all share.
The aftermath of your actions is now a responsibility shared by all.

To pay for your conquests and private air.
We are now obligated to finance your personal achievements, including luxury travel.

Well, fair is fair.
It is only right that you bear the consequences of your actions.

Ideas spread, ideals change,
As thoughts are shared, values may evolve.

When angry voices all rise the same.
When a collective of people express their indignation in unison.

So let's call it what it is:
Let us identify this situation accurately.

(A process.)
(It is an ongoing progression.)

Let's call it what it is:
Let us identify this situation accurately.

(slow progress.)
(The transition is a gradual process.)

Let's call it what it is...
Let us identify this situation accurately.

(at least it's honest.)
(At the very least, the situation is truthful.)

What if I say a movements gonna come?
If I were to state that a significant societal change were imminent...

It builds up like a wave...
...it would gather momentum like a powerful wave.

The revolution of alarm!
This mass movement will be revolutionary and confrontational.

What if I could say this wave is gonna drown you in irony! Irony!
If I could predict that this wave of change would lead to your ironic downfall...

So let's call it what it is:
Let us identify this situation accurately.

(a process.)
(It is an ongoing progression.)

Let's call it what it is:
Let us identify this situation accurately.

(slow progress.)
(The transition is a gradual process.)

Let's call it what it is...
Let us identify this situation accurately.

(at least it's honest.)
(At the very least, the situation is truthful.)

Lets call it!
Let us give this situation a name.
