[Verse 1] The honest don't flinch The honest don't switch The honest don't twitch We keep our word in the split They harnessed paradise Just to craft commerce Sold the blue in the sky Then called the cost progress Pressure us to update And upload, upload Move your soul to the feed Make your old self fold But I know that look When the grin gets thin When the hand outstretched Got a cage in it [Pre-Chorus] They want more, more, more From the same tired plate Say smile for the camera Then invoice the day I can feel that pull In the back of the chest But I won't trade truth For a shiny request [Chorus] The honest don't flinch The honest don't switch The honest don't twitch We hold it, we hold it The honest don't flinch The honest don't switch The honest don't twitch We uphold it, uphold it [Verse 2] They lined up the gardens With logos and fees Put a lock on the river Put a price on the breeze Every click got counted Every glance got sold Every hungry little want Grew a chain of gold Pressure us to update And upload our face But the mirror don't need Another borrowed shape No borrowed smile No rented soul I was built for the real Not the programmed role [Pre-Chorus] They want more, more, more From the same tired plate Say move with the herd Then rewrite the gate I can feel that pull In the back of the chest But I won't trade truth For a polished request [Chorus] The honest don't flinch The honest don't switch The honest don't twitch We hold it, we hold it The honest don't flinch The honest don't switch The honest don't twitch We uphold it, uphold it [Bridge] Let the hungry machine Choke on its own name We were never made Just to feed the game I still hear the ones Who said keep your grip On the thing inside That they can't strip [Final Chorus] The honest don't flinch The honest don't switch The honest don't twitch We hold it, we hold it The honest don't flinch The honest don't switch The honest don't twitch We uphold it, uphold it The honest don't flinch The honest don't switch The honest don't twitch We hold it, we hold it
