(Intro) We donโ€™t rot, weโ€™re taught to wait, Breathing fear they call it fate. Say itโ€™s peace, say itโ€™s control, But I still feel the truth inside my beating soul. Hands up high, eyes down low, This isnโ€™t living, this is slow. (Verse 1) Obey, consume, repeat, believe, Forget the parts they couldnโ€™t seize. No chains shown, but none are free, We march in manufactured peace. If you kneel, youโ€™ll never bleed, If you stand, youโ€™re labeled disease. We donโ€™t rot, weโ€™re taught to wait, Breathing fear they call it fate. Say itโ€™s peace, say itโ€™s control, But I still feel my beating soul. Hands up high, eyes down low, This isnโ€™t living, this is slow. (Verse 2) Lower your voice, the walls can hear, Truth doesnโ€™t travel far from fear. Smile wide, fall in line, it is time to Drink the lie, youโ€™ll be just fine. Weโ€™re still breathing, canโ€™t you see? Thatโ€™s not life, itโ€™s custody. (Chorus) We donโ€™t rot, weโ€™re taught to wait, Breathing fear they call it fate. Say itโ€™s peace, say itโ€™s control, But I still feel my beating soul. Hands up high, eyes down low, This isnโ€™t living, this is dripping it slow. (Verse 3) I wonโ€™t sleep through someone elseโ€™s dream, I wonโ€™t drown in their misery or screen. Call me mad, call me wrong, I still know where I belong. If this worldโ€™s the price you pay, I choose truth over decay. (Verse 4) Still alive, still in line, Still swallowing borrowed time. No grave dug, no blood shown, Just a nation learning how to moan. Say my name, say weโ€™re free, (Outro) We donโ€™t rot, weโ€™re taught to wait, Breathing fear they call it fate. Say itโ€™s peace, say itโ€™s control, But Iโ€™m still feel my beating soul. Hands up high, eyes down low, This isnโ€™t living, this is slow.
