Lyrics

If we all stood up to be entirely us entirely free,

If everyone embraced their true selves and complete freedom,

how would our society survive itself eventually?

Questioning the ability of society to sustain itself without conformity.

And if we all stood up today to fight the walls inside our heads,

Taking a stand against internal barriers and mental walls,

how would our society be?

Contemplating the impact on society if such barriers were broken.

We'll never see, 'cause we restrict ourselves inside our heads

Expressing the limitation imposed by self-imposed mental constraints,

We socialize ourselves until we're dead.

Highlighting the societal tendency to conform until death.

We'll never be ourselves, and that's a fact, 'cause we just can't see!

Stating the difficulty in being true to oneself due to a lack of awareness.

This life to me is like a flower like a tree,

Comparing life to a flower or a tree, emphasizing the importance of roots.

you cut your roots, you think you're free

Warning against cutting ties with one's roots under the illusion of freedom.

This life you'll see, just like flower like a tree,

Reiterating the analogy of life to a flower or a tree,

if you cut your roots, you will no longer be!

Emphasizing the irreversible consequences of severing connections.


If we all came to agree to live our lives in harmony and to defy reality how would it change our destiny?

Pondering the transformative impact if everyone lived harmoniously and defied conventional reality.

If we all were free to choose,

Imagining a society where individuals have the freedom to choose their paths,

if we're to win or we're to lose,

Considering the implications of such freedom on the overall societal structure.

how would our society be?

Reiterating the self-imposed mental restrictions that hinder societal progress,

We'll never see, 'cause we restrict ourselves inside our heads

Highlighting the tendency to confine oneself mentally,

We socialize ourselves until we're dead

Emphasizing the societal pattern of conformity leading to spiritual death.

We'll never be ourselves,

Stating the difficulty in being authentic due to fear,

and that's a fact, because we're so afraid!

Attributing the lack of authenticity to societal apprehension.


We're born in this world to be another part of this society with no room at all for us to be what we had hoped to be

Reflecting on the constraints of being born into a society with limited room for individuality,

Restrict ourselves inside our heads,

Reiterating the self-imposed mental restrictions and the societal pressure to conform,

we socialize until we're dead,

Emphasizing the societal tendency to conform until death,

we can't be free, and that's a fact!

Asserting the impossibility of true freedom due to societal constraints.
