The system's existence is just an illusion
we are complicit in our own deception
being complacent is our contribution
to the exploitation by their institutions
Its all a lie.
Its all a lie, its all a lie
every aspect of your life has been commodified
its all a lie, its all lie
Your thinking is manipulated and homogenized
its all a lie, its all a lie
the values of the ruling class are then internalized
its all a lie, its all a lie
the system that we live in is a giant fucking lie
Arc of the Hammer
swing of the blade
flight of the arrow
crest of the wave
Power is gained by the force of momentum
Indoctrinated
dull and submissive
placated by convenience
addicted to indifference
ignoring self-interest
in the name of God
I want to be the whirlwind
inside this house of cards
its all a lie
Its all a lie, its all a lie
every aspect of your life has been commodified
its all a lie, its all lie
Your thinking is manipulated and homogenized
its all a lie, its all a lie
the values of the ruling class are then internalized
its all a lie, its all a lie
the system that we live in is a giant fucking lie
Arc of the Hammer
swing of the blade
flight of the arrow
crest of the wave
Power is gained by the force of momentum
Don't let the bastards drag you down
Don't let the bastards grind you down
Power is gained by the force of momentum.
