Lyrics
The hand on power thrives on the backs of slaves
The powerful thrive by exploiting and relying on the labor of slaves.
The minds of millions suppressed and pushed into their graves
Millions of minds are suppressed and forced into an early demise.
Into their graves...
Reiteration of the grim fate of those oppressed, emphasizing death.
Children wander, with removed eyes led to worship and told the lies
Children, with vacant eyes, are guided to worship and fed lies.
Bred in enslavement, born in servitude we'll take anything we need of you
People are bred into enslavement and born into servitude, taking whatever is needed from them.
Mankind exists in slavery - a value placed on expectancy
Mankind's existence is characterized by slavery, with value placed on predictable outcomes.
No hope, suppress what you feel - give in and follow what you fear
Hope is absent, emotions suppressed, and fear is the driving force.
There must be another way!! Not a value on expectancy
A plea for an alternative to the current state of expectancy-based value.
No hope, suppress what you feel - give in and follow what you fear
Reiteration of the lack of hope, suppression of emotions, and submission to fear.
Mankind exists in slavery - another governs reality
Mankind is enslaved, with reality governed by external forces.
Dismiss your dreams as a lie - enslaved, disgraced you will die
Dreams are dismissed as false, leading to disgrace and eventual death for the enslaved.
Asleep sense fleeing, drawn towards the light that is fading
Consciousness is slipping away, drawn towards a fading light.
Wake up to an end of reason, blind faith guides the path you are leading
Waking up to the end of reason, blind faith guides a misguided path.
As on our sorrow bleeds on blood and fear they feed
Sorrow perpetuates through blood and fear, sustaining those in power.
Repent, accept fallacy, deny the truth...you're free
Repentance and acceptance of fallacy allow denial of the truth, falsely claiming freedom.
Constantly entertaining delusion, delusion of our freedom
Living in constant delusion, entertaining the false belief in freedom.
A better way, another day, another dawn, another age, another slave
Expressing a desire for a better way, another day, age, and dawn, yet acknowledging the cycle of slavery.
