Lyrics
Up in their balconies
In their towers of ivory
They point and laugh
At the peasants in the dirt
Sipping on their chateau wine
Mulling on a roast divine
Their soft smooth hands
Have never felt the work
Thank God their delicate hands have never seen the toil
Not sure their manicures would ever survive the soil
Sitting back in their chairs
Cause they provide the gold
“Now if those lowly workers would just do as they’re told!”
They are the Guild
Their cities built
On the backs of those enslaved
They are the Guild
Their cities built
By the tears and blood and sweat of slaves
It started with the one
Standing up to a loaded gun
They shot him down
His body hit the floor
And a hundred thousand, maybe more
Rose up from the mines
“We have had enough!
We’re calling on your bluff
You think you’re fucking tough?
Let’s find out!”
They were the Guild
And they’ve been billed
For the damage that they caused
They were the Guild
And they paid their bill
With their solid gold blood
