[Intro]
\n[Instrumental Intro: Factory Ambience, Metallic Percussion, Grinding Bass Pulse]
\n[Muted Guitar Chops, Organ Drone, Machine FX]
\nClock punches, engines hum
\nAnother day has just begun
\nPressure building in the wires
\nFueling bodies, fueling fires<\/p>\n
[Verse 1]
\n[Steady Industrial Groove, Tight Bassline, Rhythmic Guitar]
\nHands may labor, backs may bend
\nBut the mental grind won\u2019t end
\nNeck is stacked and systems jammed
\nTrying hard to understand<\/p>\n
[Chorus]
\n[Full Band, Industrial Drums, Wide Guitar Layers]
\nThe strain on the brain
\n(Makes ya berserk)
\nThen try to retain…<\/p>\n
The name of the strain:
\n(Blue-collar headwork)<\/p>\n
The pressure remains
\n(Still gotta work)
\nHolding it together
\n(Blue-collar headwork)<\/p>\n
[Instrumental Break: Distorted Bass Groove, Industrial Percussion, Guitar Solo]<\/p>\n
[Verse 2]
\n[Driving Beat, Mechanical Rhythm Samples, Organ Chords]
\nKnowledge packed into the grind
\nWearing down the human mind
\nSleep gets shorter, stress grows tall
\nYet the system needs it all<\/p>\n
[Bridge]
\n[Half-Time Groove, Ambient Synth Texture, Echo Vocals]<\/p>\n
[Instrumental Build: Rising Synth Filter, Tom Drums, Metallic FX]<\/p>\n
[Final Chorus]
\n[Massive Drums, Choir Synth, Layered Vocals]
\nThe strain on the brain
\n(Makes ya berserk)
\nThen try to retain…<\/p>\n
The name of the strain:
\n(Blue-collar headwork)<\/p>\n
Push through the pain
\n(Still alert)
\nKeeping it moving
\n(Blue-collar headwork)<\/p>\n
[Outro]
\n[Instrumental Outro: Factory Ambience, Fading Bass Pulse, Distant Machinery]
\nWatch the working mind
\n(Won’t unbind)
\nWhen you math the math
\n(Take a mental bath)
\nWhen you think the thought
\n(Why… why not?)<\/p>\n
