Call Me
Marcos Hernandez Lyrics

Here we are in confusion
We find ourselves lost and uncertain about the state of things.

Could be it's all an illusion
Perhaps everything we've been taught to believe isn't even real.

Who knows the times to come
We have no idea what the future holds.

The years to face, the race to run
We have a long journey ahead of us and much to overcome.

We believe in the graven image
We put our faith in material things and superficial ideals.

We believe in the fight to the finish
We're convinced that conflict is the only way to achieve success.

We desire the almighty dollar
Our insatiable hunger for money rules our decisions and actions.

The pound of flesh, the golden collar
We're willing to do whatever it takes to climb the social ladder and attain wealth and power.

Lick the hand, we give our land to dogs
We blindly follow those in authority and allow them to exploit us and our resources.

Here we are in the years
We find ourselves now in a difficult and oppressive time.

The blood, the sweat, the tears
We've endured much suffering and hardship to get to where we are now.

Have made us bondage slaves
We're trapped in a cycle of oppression and subservience.

In a world that we never made
We're struggling to survive in a society that we had no hand in creating.

The politicians lick your bones
Our leaders will do whatever it takes to gain and maintain power, even if it means exploiting and destroying the people they serve.

The tacticians, hearts of stone
Those in control lack empathy and are driven solely by their own interests.

They turn us against our brothers
Our authorities pit us against each other in order to maintain control over us.

Make us fight and kill each other
Our leaders will go to great lengths to keep us divided and fighting amongst ourselves.

Locked in lust we put our trust in dogs
We're so consumed by our desires and the pursuit of power that we willingly subject ourselves to those who seek to exploit and control us.

Now here we are again
We've come full circle and find ourselves in a similar, if not worse, situation than before.

The dead still look the same
Despite our struggles and sacrifices, the fate of those who came before us remains unchanged.

Who cares they're soon forgotten
No one seems to remember or care about the struggles and sacrifices of those who came before us.

Your fathers, daughters, mothers and sons
The generations that came before us all suffered and sacrificed to some extent.

Have been taken by the chosen ones
Our leaders and authorities have always worked to control and exploit the people they rule over.

But don't forget you made the choice
Ultimately, we are responsible for the fate of our society and the actions of our leaders.

You made your mark, you raised your voice
We have the power to effect change and make our voices heard.

They're all the same, you're all to blame
Our leaders and authorities are all motivated by their own interests and self-preservation, and we are all responsible for allowing them to control and exploit us.

They're all the same and you're to blame, you're dogs, dogs
Our leaders and authorities are all equally corrupt and exploitative, and we are all responsible for allowing them to control and exploit us like dogs.
