(Intro) We donโt rot, weโre taught to wait, Breathing fear they call it fate. Say itโs peace, say itโs control, But I still feel the truth inside my beating soul. Hands up high, eyes down low, This isnโt living, this is slow. (Verse 1) Obey, consume, repeat, believe, Forget the parts they couldnโt seize. No chains shown, but none are free, We march in manufactured peace. If you kneel, youโll never bleed, If you stand, youโre labeled disease. We donโt rot, weโre taught to wait, Breathing fear they call it fate. Say itโs peace, say itโs control, But I still feel my beating soul. Hands up high, eyes down low, This isnโt living, this is slow. (Verse 2) Lower your voice, the walls can hear, Truth doesnโt travel far from fear. Smile wide, fall in line, it is time to Drink the lie, youโll be just fine. Weโre still breathing, canโt you see? Thatโs not life, itโs custody. (Chorus) We donโt rot, weโre taught to wait, Breathing fear they call it fate. Say itโs peace, say itโs control, But I still feel my beating soul. Hands up high, eyes down low, This isnโt living, this is dripping it slow. (Verse 3) I wonโt sleep through someone elseโs dream, I wonโt drown in their misery or screen. Call me mad, call me wrong, I still know where I belong. If this worldโs 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 weโre free, (Outro) We donโt rot, weโre taught to wait, Breathing fear they call it fate. Say itโs peace, say itโs control, But Iโm still feel my beating soul. Hands up high, eyes down low, This isnโt living, this is slow.
