Rich Men North Of Richmond Remix

[Chorus: Oliver Anthony]
It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to
For people like me and people like you
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is
Livin' in the new world
With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just wanna have total control

[Verse 1: Dax]
This world is changing, I had to accept it
They ask my political views while I search for their hidden agendas
I don’t got an answer I try to remember the devil divides, pressure appears from our peers
Those arguments waste our time while helping to push their lies
So fuck political views, I got common sense
I know God made man and the Sun sets
On a life where we focus on things that we cannot control and accumulate so much regret
By the time we decide to live we're practically already dead
So I go to sleep with the thoughts of 45 years living in debt
45 years can't pay rent, 45 years just for a pension I'm too old to enjoy and go spend
45 years working and slaving for rich men with no time for my family and friends
Then I wake up and pray that it ends

[Bridge: Oliver Anthony]
Livin' in the new world
With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just wanna have total control

[Verse 2: Dax]
Decedents of Adam and Eve
The apple doesn’t far from the tree
They're taking God out the schools
Our kids don't know what to believe
From 6 to 18 the curriculum fails and Gen Z
Gets taught by their phones with forced feeds that get sponsored and paid by companies
That's how they attack us, it starts with the youth
If you lie enough you'll convince anybody the lie is the truth
So telling these kids they can choose
Their own gender at ages they can't even tie their own shoes
Drive or drink is crazy
Common sense isn't common unless it pays me
That’s the thought process daily
Look at the content we're creating
Lies diluting our brains
I’m done trying to argue allowing these people who think that a vote's gonna bring about change
How many presidents does it take to have a life worth living, an actual comfortable wage?
No more school shootings, let's unite these states

[Chorus: Dax & Oliver Anthony]
It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to
For people like me and people like you
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is
Livin' in the new world
With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
