[Spoken Intro] (feedback, slow drum beat) They built temples to wisdom... Nobody came. I never asked for believers. You brought yourselves. Now Here...Hold my Mead [Verse 1] I whisper, "Go ahead..." and kingdoms burn. You call it courage—you never learn. Truth wears boots, but lies wear gold. Guess which story always gets sold. Every warning carved in stone, Every fool says, "Mine's my own." Every cliff has footprints wide, Every crowd enjoys the ride. [Pre-Chorus] You don't kneel to me because you're weak... You kneel because certainty is cheap. [Chorus] I'm Koalemos! Raise your empty hands! Patron saint of broken plans. Paint my face on every wall— Every empire takes my call. Long live stupid! Loud and proud! Wrong together beats right alone. If history screams, turn it down... We'll build another burning town! [Verse 2] Invent the wheel, then light the cart. Sell the ashes as modern art. Hire the liar, blame the truth. Call it progress, call it youth. Read one headline, know it all. Cheer the loudest, miss the fall. Every answer, black and white. Thinking's harder than a fight. [Bridge] (half spoken, building) I never forged the sword... You did. I never lit the torch... You did. I never crowned the kings... You did. I simply smiled... ...and watched. (Band explodes back in.) [Final Chorus] I'm Koalemos! God you made! Every shortcut, every trade. Every lesson left unread, Every heart that followed dread. Don't blame heaven. Don't blame fate. I was never truly great. You built my throne with every choice... Now sing... HEY! HEY! HEY! Long live stupid! HEY! HEY! HEY! ...Until wisdom gets loud enough to drown us out.
