Attacking the labour I see and not the system they have to get by in.

Yeah. Working for microsoft was the only option. Greed and consumerism had nothing to do with it. They had no choice and it wasn't about making the most amount of money to live the most luxurious lifestyle.

but I ain’t out here shitting in those who do.

We're different people.

Right. You're just trying to look good in front of your peers.

I have no interest in looking good my friend. I’m just as flawed as the rest of us.

If you say so.

I’m just as flawed as the rest of us.

Trying to look good in front of your peers doesn't mean pretending you're perfect.
