From the recording the north star

Lyrics

i don’t belong to you - david zach

i see wolves dressed up in suits as they feed in the margins / loan sharks on the lose pluck flowers by the roots out of the garden / they steal and control / they conspire to trade me for silver and gold / but you can’t degrade me - no way / i won’t go - i won’t go // you don’t own me / i’m not your property/ not my image or my likeness / not my melody or my brightness / you don’t own me / i don’t belong to you / i don’t sing my song for you // they stole for the insatiable target demographic / put shrink wrap on my soul / like i’m package-able / stuck in the traffic / i don’t want to be colonized or advertised at / dehumanized or falling for lies that will steal from my soul - from my soul / you don’t own me / i’m not your property/ not my image or my likeness / not my melody or my brightness / you don’t own me / i don’t belong to you / i don’t sing my song for you
