I am the power behind the blow that drives the nail Into the coffin slowly destroying your ambition to succeed To surmount your circumstances The only chance you have is to dive deep down Into the same sea of hate that has molded you into a failure And surface to outshine the stars Cast off the blinders and stare into the depth of who you are
You see the world through a tinted glass You've seen it all but you never stopped to ask yourself What does it mean to know the truth (Know the truth) You can burn the books in denial, crucify a better tomorrow So forget everything you learned
I am the voice in the back of your mind that screams Not to try or you'll fail like the rest, you see It's all a motherfucking game to me Along with everyone else who has the courage To open their eyes and see, that this day in and day out routine Is meant to keep you on a leash Imagine the power we'd have if we were free (If we were free)
I have been made sick by this world, from ashes to ash return Despite the good in all we learned, I'd see it all burn
What will it take for us to see, there is no happy ending We've given up on standing tall and thinking freely We are the architects of everything we hate Yet we stay the course of misery
You see the world through a tinted glass You've seen it all but you never stopped to ask yourself What does it mean to know the truth (Know the truth) You can burn the books in denial, crucify a better tomorrow So forget everything you learned
