[Verse 1 — speedy rap, manic, in shock] I just woke up and I see the machine It was running quiet behind the screen I thought the news was the news, I thought the game was fair Now I see the gears turning everywhere Aztecs fed the sun, we feed the debt Same machine, different name, and it ain't done yet I can't breathe, I can't sleep, I keep refreshing the screen It was a whisper, now it's screaming, do you know what I mean? [Chorus — straight 4/4, heavy drumming, catchy] Anticipation, it's gone mainstream Anticipation, it's not a fringe dream Anticipation, can you feel it too? Anticipation — it's coming for you [Verse 2 — speedy rap, manic, in shock] Lights flicker, grid shivers, everybody's stocking beans Ninety days off-grid for the bases and their machines Military falls back to hold the border line Neighbors grab their rifles, draw their own line I got no beans, I got no gun, I got nothing stored The rural folks were ready — I just walked through the door If you're new to the game then welcome — welcome to hell [Chorus — straight 4/4, heavy drumming, catchy] Anticipation, it's gone mainstream Anticipation, it's not a fringe dream Anticipation, can you feel it too? Anticipation — it's coming for you [Bridge] I just saw it, I just named it, I felt it all along People live and die but the mechanisms remain My stomach knew before my mind could name it That nervous hum — that's anticipation [Final Chorus — straight 4/4, heavy drumming, catchy] Anticipation, it's gone mainstream Anticipation, it's not a fringe dream Anticipation, can you feel it too? Anticipation — it's already here
