When the tidal wave of doubt and anger starts to drag you down
That's where the lies are found
And the TV and the radio are drowning out the sound
Of revolution swelling underground
The narrative they want us to believe
Their brands and logos designed to deceive
We know the truth is there for us to see
It's there for us to see
It's there for us
It's overrated to feel like you belong
We're suffocating; wake up, wake up
A cabal of corporations is colluding for control
So don't you sell your soul
Instant pleasure, pure and potent, is the prophet they extol
And affluence their only goal
The narrative they want us to believe
Their brands and logos designed to deceive
We know the truth is there for us to see
It's there for us to see
It's there for us
It's overrated to feel like you belong
We're suffocating; wake up, wake up
It's overrated, and we finally figured out
It's syndicated; wake up, wake up
