Breaking Digital Chains: Embracing Freedom Beyond Conformity
Lyrics
When everybody's doing the same thing
Observation of conformity where everyone follows similar paths.
Like they're all living the same dream
Perception of people pursuing identical aspirations.
Not even these chords are original
Recognition that even music lacks originality in a digital age.
I wish we thought beyond the digital
Desire for deeper thinking beyond the digital realm.
In the spiral of an instant
Feeling trapped within the rapid pace of the current moment.
We're lost in the scanners
Sensation of being overwhelmed by technological surveillance.
They'll feed you some honey
Metaphorical temptation or distraction that obscures social norms.
Make you forget all your manners
Enticement leading to forgetting basic courtesy or behavior.
Falling quickly into who you don't want to be
Rapidly adopting undesirable traits or behaviors.
Sending smiles and hearts behind a computer screen, woo!
Engaging in superficial interactions online, emphasizing excitement.
We're gonna be free
Expressing a longing for freedom.
We're gonna be free
Reiteration of the desire for liberation.
Take it from me
Encouragement to heed advice about achieving freedom.
It's not easy living lives within our lives
Expressing the complexity of living multiple lives concurrently.
Not knowing which path to choose or which to sacrifice
Feeling uncertain about choosing between different paths in life.
Maybe you've been desecrated or even obligated
Possibly experiencing disrespect or forced into certain situations.
But you have the right to choose
Asserting the right to make personal choices.
There's no snooze then you lose
Urging to remain alert and active; inactivity leads to loss.
So look them in the eyes and tell them being kind
Advocacy for kindness in interactions with others.
I wanna be free
Expressing personal aspiration for freedom.
I wanna be free
Reiteration of the personal longing for freedom.
We're gonna be free
Reiteration of the collective aim for freedom.
We're gonna be free
Reaffirmation of the collective pursuit of freedom.
We're gonna be free
Reasserting the collective goal of achieving freedom.
We're gonna be free
Reiteration of the collective desire for freedom.
So I'll smile at a stranger
Commitment to positive gestures towards strangers.
I'll call up all my neighbors
Intention to connect with and engage with neighbors.
I'll find a friendly face and say
Seeking out friendly faces and intending to communicate.
We're gonna be free
Reiteration of the aspiration for freedom.
We're gonna be free
Reaffirmation of the collective pursuit of freedom.
Take it from me, yeah
Reiteration of the advice to embrace freedom.
