Lyrics

My freedom of speech impeached By a gag of blind acceptance Honesty has died of our neglect To speak of our true feelings My straightjacket No longer chemical but cultural My hands and feet inextricably bound by Cultural and political oppression We are now the disabled of heart Muted by cultural selection Slaves to the cultural engineers Who would make their truth our bible Selecting your facts Framing them your way Is still a lie Is still a lie They have told us what being a man means Painted a universal truth Of succes and beauty But beneath the plastic veneer of their radiance Lies a rot of the heart and soul that makes me retch I'm not perfect in my sight But I cast aside this straightjacket Constraining me with lies of what I should be Who I am should not offend Social media The reprogramming of our souls Culture used to be a discourse Now it is about someone else's goals Social media The reprogramming of your soul Culture used to be a discourse Now it is about someone else's goals Prescribing our dreams Framing them your way Is still a lie It's all a lie I am not perfect in their sight But I cast aside their straightjacket Constraining me With lies of what I should be Who I am should not offend The time is now! I'll no longer hold my silence I will not conform I will paint my own picture And not just outside their box No I will build my own box I must break your system I will unleash my fenix Will burn down your world Remake it as I see fit
