This track is a crushing nu-metalcore assault that feels like a confrontation with hidden power structures. Lyrics Below
[intro]
whispers in the wires, prophets on the payroll,
crowns made of paper while the masses stay low
[verse]
I see the systems, twistin, wishin for more power,
control, that's the goal, coils tighten every hour,
menus full of rulers but the meal is always fear,
puppet strings invisible, they tangle round the ear,
feed us with division, keep the vision tunnel-bound,
truth is in a cage while the lies parade around,
scripted opposition, different mask, the same grin,
two sides of a blade, either way it cuts skin
[pre-chorus ]
you feel it closing in — the pressure in the dome
every throne they build is just another kind of zone
[chorus ]
they don't want souls awake — they want control
they don't want light exposed — they want the role
kings of illusion on a paper throne
pulling every string till the truth is gone
[verse]
dogma in the doctrine, lockstep in the pews,
politicians preaching like they're selling sacred views,
silver-tongued serpents with a ballot and a grin,
promise you salvation while they tax you for your sin,
data is the deity, they tally every breath,
algorithms judging who is worthy, who is left,
history rewritten with permission and a pen,
cycle spins again and again and again
[bridge]
not left, not right — just chains dressed different
not faith, not doubt — just cages consistent
[breakdown]
see the veil. tear it down.
hear the lie. feel the crown.
stand awake. hold your ground.
truth is louder than the sound.
[outro]
when the blindfold slips and the gears all show
you'll see who runs the stage… and who runs the showmore
