Lyrics

Force Fed into believing what's right.

Being forcefully persuaded to accept certain beliefs as correct.

Your stripped of a soul and you're ready to fold.

Feeling devoid of identity or essence, susceptible to giving up.

Follow them and they'll show you the light. You're already sold on what you've been told. They're telling you what they want you to here. It all makes sense but there's something unclear.

Encouragement to follow authority figures blindly; already convinced by what's been taught.

They suck you in while they thin out the herd. And now you're losing confidence.

Manipulating people into conformity while eliminating those who question or resist.

Redefining trust is something that's left up to us.

The need to redefine trust is left to individuals, not dictated by external influences.

What your getting in return is losing what you've earned.

What's received in exchange is the loss of what one has rightfully gained.

All your life you've lived by the book.

A life lived strictly by established rules and norms.

Take a step back to take another look. Contradictions left and right.

Encouragement to reconsider established beliefs; facing contradictions.

You keep it next to your bed to help you go to sleep at night.

Using something (likely a belief system) as comfort to aid sleep.

They're telling you what they want you to here. It all makes sense but there's something unclear.

Reiteration of being influenced by manipulated information; a sense of confusion persists.

They suck you in while they thin out the herd. And now you're losing confidence.

Continued manipulation by drawing people in while removing dissenting voices, leading to a loss of confidence.

So what would Jesus do?

Questioning what a revered figure would do in a difficult situation.

If you gave him a gun would he kill if he had to?

Exploring a hypothetical scenario to test the principles of a revered figure.

In his defense you'd kill and fight.

Highlighting a potential hypocrisy in supporting violence.

So what gave you the right?

Raising a moral question about the justification for one's actions.

You're so caught up in this religious haze. Dismissing the gays.

Being overly focused on religious ideology and rejecting marginalized groups.

" And the devil made aids. "

Referencing an unfounded belief linking AIDS to the devil, likely as a critique of scapegoating.

Religious racists want all others to fall.

Describing a prejudiced religious faction wishing harm on those outside their beliefs.

If I could choose a god he'd believe in us all. They're telling you what they want you to here. It all makes sense but there's something unclear.

Reemphasizing the manipulation of information by those in power, leading to confusion.

They suck you in while they thin out the herd. And now you're losing confidence.

Continued control tactics by influential figures, resulting in decreased confidence.

Redefining trust is something that's left up to us.

Reiterating the need for individuals to redefine and establish trust on their own terms.

What your getting in return is losing what you've earned.

Highlighting the loss of earned possessions or virtues in exchange for something else.

Your stripped of a soul your ready to fold. Already been sold on thinning out the herd.

Reiteration of feeling spiritually depleted and inclined to surrender due to prior indoctrination.
