Breaking out of the MACHINE

Static
Distorted voices
Wake up

 

Static in my bloodstream, poison on the screen
Every headline manufactured, every lie pristine
Marching in a straight line, barcode on the soul
Sell another false god just to keep control

Another generation buried under fear
Programmed by the signal pumping through our ears


They want another puppet with a dead-eyed stare
But I still feel the fire


And I know it's there

I won't bow down
I won't fade away
I won't let their system
Rewrite my name

 

I'm breaking out of the machine
Tearing through the lies they feed
No more chains around my mind
No more walking fucking blind

Move forward through the flames


Rise above the hate
I'd rather die awake
Than live programmed in a cage

Children of corruption dressed in suits and gold
Trading human lives just to tighten up their hold
Truth gets crucified while the rich still grin
Turning pain to profit while the world caves in

Everybody scrolling while the cities burn
Too distracted by the noise to see what we've become
But I can hear the heartbeat underneath the static
A soul refusing silence


In a world gone manic

I won't kneel down
I won't numb the pain
I won't let propaganda
Rot inside my brain

 

I'm breaking out of the machine
Tearing through the lies they feed
No more chains around my mind
No more walking fucking blind

Move forward through the flames


Rise above the hate
I'd rather die awake
Than live programmed in a cage

Cut the wire


Burn the script
Watch the tower start to split
No salvation sold on screens
No more kings and no regimes

We are not your property
We are not conformity
Hear the voices multiply
You can't kill a mind alive

 

Wake up
They divide us just to own us
Wake up
Fear is how they control us
Wake up
We were never born to obey

 

Rip
The
Mask
Away

 

I'm breaking out of the machine
Now the world can hear me scream
No more chains around my soul
Now I'm taking back control

Move forward through the pain


Standing in the rain
I'd rather stand alone
Than live my fucking life a drone

Static fading
System shaking
Still alive and still creating

 

 

Not a robot
Not a slave
I'll die free
Before
I
Fade
