One Million Miles an Hour, Fast Asleep
Awakening in a Digital Dream: One Million Miles Reflection
Lyrics
Yeah we all listen to everything the man says
People unquestioningly follow authority figures and conform to their instructions.
can't speak a sentence, we got the words placed
Communication is restricted, and individuals adhere to prescribed language.
Stars keeping falling far from space, we're a million miles an hour, fast asleep
Despite celestial events, society is metaphorically racing but unaware, caught in a deep slumber.
How do you feel, how do you feel when you're alone?
Questioning the emotions and experiences when one is alone.
It's time for action, they tried to take our love!
Calling for proactive measures against threats to love and connection.
Where is your passion, where do you get yours?
Searching for personal passion and its source.
Stars keeping falling far from space, we're a million miles an hour, fast asleep
Reiteration of society's obliviousness to its rapid pace and distant fallings.
How do you feel, how do you feel when you're alone?
Revisiting the inquiry into feelings and experiences during solitude.
Got our bodies squeezed into digital molds, we can't breathe & we're moving too slow
Describing the constraining impact of digital influence on physical existence.
God is solid between a video screen, a plastic wall & a broken material dream
Depicting the separation caused by technology, with God symbolized amid artificial constructs and shattered dreams.
It's time to memorize your numbers, a code to signify your face
Advocating the memorization of personal identifiers in a digitalized world.
Your thumb is pushing down on the plunger, pick up your feet so you can put em in place
Encouraging action to overcome challenges, using metaphors like pushing a plunger and putting feet in place.
There's an inside rumor of a beggar, who got all that he need in his hands,
Narrating a story of a content beggar rejecting material possessions and plans.
he said he ain't no good with possession cause he can't keep track & he don't need a plan
Highlighting the beggar's disinterest in possession management and planning.
They say the old woman got the wisdom, cause she couldn't read a clock anymore
Emphasizing the wisdom of an old woman who disregards time constraints.
she said the numbers don't represent the moments & she don't see what all that ticking's for
Rejecting the significance of numbers in representing life's moments.
"they selling you time with repeat stimuli right in front of your eyes till you feel paralyzed
Commenting on the commercialization of time and its impact on individual agency.
you're the only one who can define real"
Empowering the listener to define what is real in the face of external influences.
Tell me right now how you really feel
Directly asking for an honest expression of personal feelings.
