They call it "Black Friday" because businesses usually go into the "black" on this day.

Our individual effort is where the struggle begins
To stand up and fight for those oppresed by politicians
The companies condition the public thought media bullshit
All of this suffering is inflicted just to turn a ****ing profit
They stifle criticism with a cost of living raise
Selling out the working class a million different ways
The power that you give them is how they keep control
Don't support them anymore, it's time to take back what they stole ****
the system, **** it's views, it's the people they abuse
Abuse of power and authority is the downfall of society
But people never seem to listen, the're all brainwashed by the system
