we're all in this together

[Intro – Mock corporate voiceover, distorted]

"Here at Unified Futures™, we believe in community.
Shared sacrifice.
And premium banking services for those who qualify."
[Verse 1 – Spoken, venomous]

They toast to austerity in gold-dipped flutes
While schools turn off heating and food banks recruit
“Hard times for all,” says the man with ten homes
Wearing offshore silk stitched with your student loans

We're told it’s fair, we’re told it’s tight
While loopholes dance in accountant’s light
They hoard the billions, dodge the dues
Then blame the nurses for budget blues
[Pre-Chorus – Spoken → screamed]

Cut your meals
Cut your heat
Cut your hope
While they cheat
[Chorus – Screamed, chant-style]

We’re all in this together™!
Just some of us get yachts
Some get scraps, some get stocks
Some get crushed beneath the clocks

We’re all in this together™!
Yeah — if “this” means “owned”
You get evicted, they get cloned
Your rent is blood, their wealth is throned
[Verse 2 – Faster, snide]

They sell bootstrap dreams from ivory towers
Tax the breadline, then gift the flowers
Claim "enterprise" — then offshore the loot
Write checks to ghosts in tailored suits

“Hard work pays,” says the heir to a bank
Whose wealth comes stamped from a thankless rank
They cut the floor, raise the ceiling
Then cry when we start stealing
[Bridge – Fake unity speech, chopped and glitched]

“We… must all tighten our belts…”
“Pay our fair share…”
“Do what’s right for the economy…”
“…as long as you're not essential to it.”
[Breakdown – Screamed]

Tax the cries, not the kings
Bend the knees, break the wings
They sell shame and call it pride
Then buy the judge when you collide
[Final Chorus – Slower, heavier, layered vocals]

We’re all in this together™!
Said the teeth behind the grin
While we drown beneath their spin
They cash out — we dig in

We’re all in this together™!
They say with ivory breath
But the fine print reads like death
For us — not them
[Outro – Whispered, corporate voice again]
