Lyrics
Here we go Wake up Wake up Your comfort is a coffin, your compliance is all trained You're dying while they profit, they're rewiring your brain Cut the cord, rip the wires from your veins Every lie they fed you is the fuel for their reign They built their empire on your fear and doubt Let's burn it all down, let the truth ring out Wake up Tear your eyes from the black mirror, see the world they disguise All the propaganda dies when the people realize Wake up This is the sound of the system’s collapse No more hypocrisy, no more traps, we're taking it back We're told to believe these people have earned their crowns And every truth we try to seek gets buried deep underground They teach obedience like scripture, burn the questioners alive But the louder they demanded faith, the less I internalize I saw neighbors trade their conscience for approval in the feed They tie themselves to comfort, consuming all they’d ever need We've become so blind to the pattern, now just pawns inside their play But the foundation begins to crumble as the cracks gave way And in the midst of all the chatter, I can hear the growing sound The glory of voices they tried to bury rising up from the ground Everything they have fed you is a leash around your throat But if you wake the hell up, you can cut the fastened choke Clear the distortion from your head, don't be part of the machine I’d rather learn to swallow the truth than live in your dream Wake up Tear your eyes from the black mirror, see the world they disguise All the propaganda dies when the people realize Wake up This is the sound of the system’s collapse No more hypocrisy, no more traps, we’re taking it back We've watched empires rise, lets cause the downswing They sell Armageddon, getting richer than any king Every word is rehearsed, every smile a disguise And the story they keep feeding us built their franchise I saw mothers choke on pills just to pay off their regret I saw fathers sell their souls to escape another debt Families torn apart while the villains wear a smile Pushing violence in the riots and calling it lifestyle Teaching what to fear, and where to direct your hate I’d rather break their system down than live another slave And if the truth is too heavy, let it crush me where I stand At least I'll have a clear conscience, not living in a dreamland Wake up or die asleep Wake up or die asleep We’ve been told the same story long enough Now it’s time to write our own Wake up Wake up This is the sound of the truth breaking out
