This is a great example of Rage lyrics at their finest. The song's about an illegal Mexican immigrant working in the US to send money back home to his family.
The lyrics are fucking amazing in this song. "I jack for Similac, fuck a Cadillac" refers to not even being able to think about owning a car and having to steal for something as basic as baby formula.
One of my favorite lyrics of all time is "It's my life for their life, so call it a free trade." Free trade referring to a free market or capitalist economy, but he uses word play to point out that the immigrant is trading his life to keep his family alive (at the same time pointing out that illegal immigrants, as well as lower class people, remain in poverty in order to maintain class systems that keep capitalist societies afloat).

Pure fucking genius.
