Unprogrammable

 

Verse 1

Static in my bloodstream, poison on the screen

Every headline manufactured, every lie pristine

Marching in a straight line, barcode on the soul

They sell another false god just to keep control

 

Another generation buried under fear

Programmed by the signal they force into our ears

They want another puppet with a dead-eyed stare

But I still feel the fire and I know it’s there

 

Pre-Chorus

I won’t bow down

I won’t fade away

I won’t let their system rewrite my name

 

Chorus

I’m breaking out of the machine

Tearing through the lies they feed

No more chains around my mind

No more drowning blind

 

Move forward through the flames

Rise above the hate

I’d rather die awake

Than live programmed in a cage

 

Verse 2

Children of corruption dressed in suits and gold

Trading human lives just to tighten up their hold

Truth gets crucified while the rich still grin

Turning pain to profit while the world caves in

 

Everybody scrolling while the cities burn

Too distracted by the noise to see what we’ve become

But I can hear the heartbeat underneath the static

A soul refusing silence in a world gone manic

 

Pre-Chorus

I won’t kneel down

I won’t numb the pain

I won’t let propaganda rot my brain

 

Chorus

I’m breaking out of the machine

Tearing through the lies they feed

No more chains around my mind

No more drowning blind

 

Move forward through the flames

Rise above the hate

I’d rather die awake

Than live programmed in a cage

 

Bridge

Cut the wire

Burn the script

Watch the tower start to split

No salvation sold on screens

No more kings and no regimes

 

We are not their property

We are not conformity

Hear the voices multiply

You can’t kill a mind alive

 

Breakdown

Wake up!

They divide us just to own us

Wake up!

Fear is how they control us

Wake up!

We were never born to obey

Rip the mask away!

 

Final Chorus

I’m breaking out of the machine

Now the world can hear me scream

No more chains around my soul

Now I’m taking back control

 

Move forward through the pain

Even in the rain

I’d rather stand alone

Than live my life as a drone

 

Outro

Static fading

System shaking

Still alive and still creating

Not a robot

Not a slave

I’ll die free before I fade
