Something Unique

The struggle is real
For the biggest deal
You need something unique
And even better: épique.

Capitalism is hunting with money
Searching for a bit of honey
From every living being out there

While capitalists don’t care
For the customer’s feelings
They promise them best dealings

Only for their own interest
Of course, it wouldn’t be best
If customers knew they’re just puppets

The money goes into the buckets
Of the already being rich
We better correct the glitch

In creating something unique
Out of my mind of ancient greek
That lasts forever and has meaning

I’d like to restart with little cleaning
My ability to finish what I start
That would be uniquely smart

The struggle is fine
I work from five to nine
To create something unique
That will certainly be épique.
