Lyrics
[Intro]
They can try to erase us
They feed lies to the nameless
So fucked up how they portray us
I'm exhausted living like a hostage
[Verse 1]
The streets are lit well with fire from the oppression
The sound of bombs are muffled when the devil speaks
They know we're feining for another bad addiction
But they keep pushing drugs that they call belief
[PreChorus]
Bliss is ignorance for those who can't afford
The truth, they're using you to mop blood off the floor
Whoa, whoa, whoa, demonized together
Whoa, whoa, whoa, who wants to live forever?
[Chorus]
They can try to erase us
They feed lies to the nameless
It's so fucked up how they portray us
I'm exhausted, living like a hostage
They will try to deface us
They prey on the complacent
It's so fucked up how they portray us
I'm exhausted, living like a hostage
[Verse 2]
Corruption's got a pretty face for seduction
Disguised in tailored suits, the target's set on you
The factory of promises won't stop production
Until it's torn down for a better view
[PreChorus]
Bliss is ignorance for those who can't afford
The truth, they're using you to mop blood off the floor
Whoa, whoa, whoa, demonized together
Whoa, whoa, whoa, who wants to live forever?
[Chorus]
They can try to erase us
They feed lies to the nameless
It's so fucked up how they portray us
I'm exhausted, living like a hostage
They will try to deface us
They prey on the complacent
It's so fucked up how they portray us
I'm exhausted, living like a hostage
[Bridge]
I swear to God I'm running low on air and I'm 'bout to choke
The scent of kerosene colors the city, skies are stained with smoke
I swear to god we've barely eaten, but somehow we still have hope
Bodies stacking up like monuments, I'm sick of seeing bones
I swore to God I'd bring you home, so don't you quit on me, don't fade
The weight of the world will need every hand to spin the other way
I swore to God I'd pull the pin before I accepted fate
I refuse to bow down, I'll stand until my legs break
[Outro]
I swear to God
I swear to God
