Lock Out
Unlocking the Chains of Society: Crowned King's Anthem of Social Struggle
Lyrics
The ballot's cast, the votes are in
The voting process is complete, decisions have been made.
Our workers slave so we can sin
Our laborers work hard to support our indulgences or vices.
Take advantage while you can
Exploit opportunities while they are available.
So think about it, the life I take for granted
Reflecting on the life taken for granted.
And everyday I tend to whine about it.
Expressing a tendency to complain about life regularly.
I'm confused and amused, must I choose?
Feeling both perplexed and entertained, facing a choice.
What should I do?
Contemplating a decision or course of action.
I feel tied down, I feel locked out
Experiencing a sense of restriction or exclusion.
I see you struggle, but what;s this issue really about
Observing others facing difficulties, questioning the root cause.
Should we tempt fate, and try to change things before we die
Considering the possibility of challenging fate to instigate change.
It's cold and I wonder if we'll make it through the night
Expressing concern about a challenging situation and the uncertainty of overcoming it.
Though the world keeps spinning while we cower in our fright
Despite the world continuing to function, individuals are paralyzed by fear.
So I think about it, I think of ways to try
Deliberating on ways to address or confront the challenges.
A boy is shot downtown and
Highlighting a violent incident, possibly in a city center.
No one cares if he dies
Emphasizing apathy towards a person's life in society.
Do we care or do we lie
Raising questions about genuine concern versus deception.
But I do, I do care, but why, I'm scared, to think, of what I've become
Expressing internal conflict, acknowledging fear of self-realization.
And what this is all about
Reflecting on personal identity and the purpose of existence.
I feel locked out
Reiterating the feeling of exclusion or isolation.
I take a look outside, I see the protesters march and cry
Observing protests and demonstrations while questioning their efficacy.
I don't know why they bother, failing when they try
Doubting the effectiveness of efforts similar to one's own negative attitude.
but attitudes like mine, only worsen times
Recognizing that negative attitudes contribute to worsening situations.
I'm full of negative thoughts, I'm full of negative rhymes these are my negative lines
Acknowledging a mindset filled with negativity and pessimism.
