Cover art for The Greatest Bane lyrics by Ocean, The

The Greatest Bane is about the "sentinels of humanity's cage" which are all the big cooperations and companies with all their lobbies corrupting/tweaking our governments. They are who are dictating our lives, omnipresent and omniscient. They are always right, there's no way to question their supremacy and authority. Beneath their symbols hides the unwanted, dreadful truth: "Your children work for us eight hours a day. We know that we give them the shittiest pay."
