Off the upcoming album "MERCY" by Gods Of Wrath releasing early 2027. "Never Enough" is an aggressive industrial rapcore and metalcore anthem confronting the growing divide between extreme wealth and poverty. Told through the eyes of an exhausted working-class parent struggling to survive, the song exposes the stark contrast between those who can never accumulate enough wealth and those who never have enough to meet their basic needs.

Lyrics:
There's never enough!
There's never enough!
There's never enough!
Six in the morning
My scanner keeps flashing red
Three hours of sleep and
The quota still hangs over my head
We move thousands of boxes
They track our numbers with their pen
Give us some pizza, claim we're family
Then cut our hours again
My pay hits Friday morning
By that evening it's gone
Rent takes the biggest bite then
The overdraft fees pile on
My kid asks what's for dinner
I can't look her in the eye
Fridge lights hit the empty shelfs
I tell her somehow we'll get by
I give them my whole life
Somehow I'm still in debt
I ask where's my slice of that corporate pie
They say "There's nothing left."
There's never enough!
There's never enough!
There's never enough!
There's never enough!
Why is there never enough?
Saturday I'm catering
On the forty-second floor
Walk past the marble, past the mirrors
Through a gold-trimmed door
A man’s name is on the building
He takes a bow beneath some lights
He bought the block on Tuesday
Says they're eating good tonight
His watch could pay my rent for years
He wears it just for show
They've bought up half the neighborhood
But still there's “room to grow”
They barely touch the desserts
While our kids starve in their beds
Claim, "The market’s looking hungry
And "Labor’s whining again.”
They want another billion
We just want the kids to eat
They own the whole damn world
We can't afford the time to sleep
There's never enough!
There's never enough!
There's never enough!
There's never enough!
Why is there never enough?
Another tax break for the rich
Medical bills for us to pay
Another golden parachute
While our pensions drain away
They swear the wealth will trickle down
Just give it time to flow
But their money piles high
And we're always stuck below
They write the rules and rig the game
Always telling us it's fair
We run the machine they claim to own
Never getting our fare share
When we ask why working hard
Still leaves us far behind
They say, "Just work a little more,"
As they rob us blind
They run all their equations
Ensuring we all pay the cost
They say it's all just business
And write-off everything we've lost
They can blame the market
They can swear they had no say
But we warned them what was happening
And they signed off on it anyway!!!
You all took the profits!
And left us with the debt!
Hoarding wealth up to the sky!
As we fight over what's left!
You fed the market!
And starved the street!
You built this fucking table!
And now we're here to eat!!!
Eat the rich!
Eat the rich!
Eat the rich!
Eat the rich!
Eat the rich!
Eat the rich!
Eat the rich!
Eat the rich!
There's never enough!
There's never enough!
There's never enough!
There's never enough!
Why is there never enough?
Why is there never enough?more
