lyrics

Excessive social stimulation, plastic tribes and tribulations.
Pandering to expectations, self entitlement.
Pleas for absolution from responsibility, regurgitated idealisms don't impress me.

Collective thought or hive mentality?
Our chain will be dismantled by its weakest links.
Collective thought or hive mentality?
Suppressing voices of others only makes you weak.

What will those who've follow blindly be left to do? When the figures you've placed your faith in abandon you without any hesitation?
Accept responsibility for the absence of humility.
Accept the punishment for biting the hand that fed you in your infancy.

Brotherhood, camaraderie.
Togetherness is all fine and great.
But you'd give it all for a leg up on your brother,
the prospect of reward will turn you on one another.
When this takes place, nobody wins.
You can talk a hard game all you want.
But under the slightest bit of pressure
your facade crumbles and you so quickly change your tune.

Endless hunger for validation, unbending selfish fascination.
Self destructive nihilism openly gentrified by the powers that be, or so it would seem.
It’s all been played out over again, but no one was listening.
