WORK! (Not for You)
by MAROL

Work, work, work!
Work, work, work!
Tell me what it’s worth?
Tell me what it’s worth?
If I don’t believe—
If I don’t believe—
Then where do I go?
Where do I go?

I took one day off…
Then I took two
But my rent just doubled
Ain’t that the truth
Can I grow my food?
No, no, no!
Can I drink that stream?
You’ll owe a fee!

Work for the chain—
Work for the game—
Work for the house I still don’t own
Work for the loans—
Work for the bone—
While billionaires build a gold-plated throne

Work for what?
For a car that breaks!
Work for who?
For the ones who take!
No gold for me—
Just plastic cards
And a couch I bought
At 27% charge

Can I get a hallelujah—
For lifetime debt!
Put your hands together—
For what you ain’t paid yet!
Sold our lives
To buy new phones
Buried dreams
Under payday loans

You got tricked, my friend
Into chasing toys
And now you work all day
To keep the noise

WORK! WORK! WORK!
While they toast champagne
WORK! WORK! WORK!
In a private plane
WORK! WORK! WORK!
For a suit and tie
WORK! WORK! WORK!
Till the day you die

I’m so blessed—
To owe this much!
It’s a privilege—
To die in a crunch!
Thank you, boss
May I lick your shoe?
What would I do—
Without servitude?

I wanna work for me…
But they won’t let me be…
No, they won’t let me be…

Marol is a musician, producer and songwriter born in 1982 in a small village in northern Sweden.

He started playing guitar at the age of eight, learning mostly through family rather than formal lessons. Music quickly became a space for curiosity and experimentation. At ten, he received an Amiga 1200 and discovered a simple music program that allowed him to create tracks using samples. From there, his world expanded.

Early influences ranged from Depeche Mode and Nine Inch Nails to reggae and pop acts like Ace of Base. Recording ideas on cassette tape, Marol began shaping his own sound long before finding a studio. Piano and synthesizers were always close by — his grandparents’ piano and a cousin’s synths became playgrounds for sound and intuition.

In the 1990s, with access to workstations and software like Cubase and Logic, he focused heavily on electronic music. At 21, his track Northern Lights was played on local radio — a quiet milestone that encouraged him to keep going.

Later, his path crossed with musicians from the grindcore and metal scene. Electronic elements met heavy guitars and guttural vocals, forming the band Zophrania, where contrasts became collaboration. When the band dissolved, Marol moved to Norway, set up a home studio, and continued creating independently.

Between 2020 and 2022, new technology opened a simpler, more direct workflow. It allowed him to work closer to instinct — faster, freer, and more aligned with his ideas and emotions. His music remained his own, but without the need to slow down or compromise the creative process.

Today, Marol’s work is fluid and exploratory. He moves between genres without attachment, always experimenting, always in motion. Music is deeply personal to him — he only produces what feels honest and real in the moment.

Recently relocating to Vienna, what began as a short visit turned into a new chapter. The city sparked fresh inspiration, and he decided to stay. Alongside music, Marol now also creates music videos, a long-standing passion that has found new life.

For those who get bored easily — congratulations.
Marol doesn’t have that problem.
