No Equalizer
Unraveling Fantasies: No Equalizer's Anthem to ImperfectionLyrics
You want a perfect prefab world
You desire an ideal, pre-made world
Where the boy always gets the girl
Where the romantic narrative always ends positively
But the world's not really like that
However, reality doesn't conform to such simplicity
Where knights in armor slay the beast
Contrasting the notion of heroic knights defeating monsters
And every peasant gets a feast
And every commoner enjoying abundance
But I don't want a world that's like that
The singer rejects a world shaped by such ideals
Cause if the beast has a heart and the peasant has none
Questioning the morality of harming creatures and neglecting the needy
Your equalizer's come undone
When moral balance breaks, your means of restoring fairness fails
Now what's left to do when every wish always comes true?
In a world where all desires are instantly fulfilled, what remains?
And what's great to me won't seem so great to you
Individual perspectives shape what is considered great or valuable
There'd be no saints if every heart was overflowing
If everyone were morally upright, the concept of saints would lose meaning
There'd be nothing to learn if everyone was all-knowing
Knowledge and growth come from the existence of the unknown
Well it's a worthy crusade but I won't cheer the parade of the equalizer
Acknowledging the value of diversity and rejecting uniformity
100 smiles make a frown mean more
Highlighting the impact of negative experiences in a predominantly positive environment
There's no equalizer
Emphasizing the absence of a universal leveling force
Off the lines in factory
Criticizing the conformity found in assembly-line production
Cookie cutter mentality
Describing a mentality that molds individuals into uniform shapes
Well the world's already like that
Acknowledging the existing state of the world
And I'm sorry if you disagree but that's the point
Expressing regret if there's disagreement but asserting the necessity of this perspective
It takes a bit of piss to put the spice in victory
Suggesting that challenges or difficulties enhance the value of success
