The paranoia is in bloom, the PR
The transmissions will resume
They'll try to push drugs
Keep us all dumbed down and hope that
We will never see the truth around
They thought that just because they kept us caged up, they controlled us. That we wouldn't see them for what they are. That we would just do as they said, complete the equation. Keep up their image. No. Not us.
(So come on!)
Another promise, another scene, another
A package not to keep us trapped in greed
With all the green belts wrapped around our minds
And endless red tape to keep the truth confined
Endless lies. "Last time," they said. "It won't hurt," they said. Or the worst of them all: "It's for your own good." No. It's for YOUR good, for you. But the second we realized this, they were all sweet, bribing us to keep from holding a grudge. It's not that easy. Sorry.
(So come on!)
They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious
No matter what you say, what you do, it can't change us. We will stay the same. We will stand our ground. Hurt us, we are symbols. Kill us, we are martyrs.
Interchanging mind control
Come let the revolution take its toll if you could
Flick the switch and open your third eye, you'd see that
We should never be afraid to die
If they had half as much logic, as much street smarts as they had book smarts, they'd know that it was hopeless. We could never be changed. We had found our cause, now we would support it. No matter what. It was the only way to stay alive.
(So come on!)
Rise up and take the power back, it's time that
The fat cats had a heart attack, you know that
Their time is coming to an end
We have to unify and watch our flag ascend
They think that they're in control, the naive little nerds they are. Guess what, whitecoats? If we stop cooperating, the jig's up. We're in control. You're wrapped around our little genetically-enhanced figures, and you don't suspect a thing. And now, it's our turn to rise to power. Freaks rule.
They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious
They aren't in control anymore. We used to believe you, but now we're smarter than that. Nothing you say, nothing you do can change that. So come on. Give it your best shot. Try us.
Hey .. hey ... hey .. hey!
They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious
Hey .. hey ... hey .. hey!
