The Cloud
Unveiling the Digital Puppetry: Escaping the Cloud's Control
Lyrics
Paralyzed by the screen light
Feeling unable to move or act due to the illumination from screens.
By software created to rule
Refers to software designed to control or dominate.
Screens attached to faces
People's faces being constantly engaged with screens.
Walking around in this way
Individuals moving around while absorbed in their digital devices.
24-7 don’t miss a thing
A phrase emphasizing continuous connectivity without missing anything.
I’m programmed to buy everything
Feeling compelled to purchase everything due to programming or influence.
Who is ruling the world
Raising a question about who holds control or authority.
When all the power is in the cloud
Highlighting the concentration of power within the cloud-based systems.
We are robots of flesh and blood
Describing humans metaphorically as machines.
Playing a game with our minds
Suggesting manipulation of thoughts or actions through external forces.
We are counted in millions
Indicating a vast number of individuals affected by this scenario.
And caught in a loop without any end
Feeling trapped in a repetitive cycle without an apparent conclusion.
So please, talk to me in real life
Requesting genuine, face-to-face communication rather than digital interactions.
I’m lost in this crazy maze
Expressing feeling disoriented and overwhelmed in a chaotic digital environment.
All I need is a real friend
Expressing a longing for authentic human connections.
Not just a face on the screen
Desiring real, physical friends rather than virtual connections.
We are strangers in livingrooms
Describing a sense of unfamiliarity even in familiar spaces due to digital invasion.
Traced from the day you were born
Implying continuous surveillance or tracking from birth.
Who is ruling the world
Pondering the entity or force controlling societal aspects.
When all the power is in the cloud
Reiterating the dominance and control centralized within cloud technology.
We are robots of flesh and blood
Reiterating the comparison of humans to automated entities.
Playing a game with our minds
Highlighting manipulation or influence on human cognition.
We are counted in millions
Emphasizing the vast number of individuals affected by these influences.
And caught in a loop without any end
Expressing feeling stuck in a never-ending cycle or pattern.
Hypnotized through the feed on your screen
Describing the entrancement caused by the constant stream of content on screens.
A content created for you
Content tailored for an individual's consumption.
If you can pay you get it all
Highlighting the monetization of everything, implying a price for access.
Remember nothing’s for free
Emphasizing the absence of free offerings, everything has a cost.
I ’m addicted to staying online
Expressing addiction or dependence on continuous online presence.
Scrolling to keep your friends away
Engaging in endless scrolling to maintain distance from genuine connections.
Who is ruling the world
Raising a question about who holds control or authority.
When all the power is in the cloud
Reiterating the concentration of power within cloud-based systems.
We are robots of flesh and blood
Reiterating the comparison of humans to automated entities.
Playing a game with our minds
Highlighting manipulation or influence on human cognition.
We are counted in millions
Emphasizing the vast number of individuals affected by these influences.
And caught in a loop without any end
Expressing feeling stuck in a never-ending cycle or pattern.
