Bootlicker from the forthcoming solo album My Name Is Will by Mark Will

lyrics:
The programming starts in the home with the family
Continues at church and at school
Obedience richly rewarded, severe punishment
For infringing the rule
Once beaten down and completely humiliated
Find a scapegoat to blame
Then you’ll be ready to forfeit your will to a boss
Who embodies your shame
Bootlicker, on your knees!
Ain’t that shiny, shiny leather a tease?
A thug in a uniform
Can always make you perform
You’re enamored of the bully boy
And honored to be his toy
You suck up and punch down
But your Great White Daddy’s a clown
In some mythic past, your tribe ruled the land
And the sea—or so you were told—
But now you feel victimized by the unworthy
And think that your birthright was sold
So follow the leader to soulless perdition
And never admit it’s a con
You are the sub in a kinked-up relationship
Bow to the mafia don
Bootlicker, on your knees!
Ain’t that shiny, shiny leather a tease?
A thug in a uniform
Can always make you perform
You’re enamored of the bully boy
And honored to be his toy
You suck up and punch down
But your Great White Daddy’s a clown
