[INTRO] [VERSE 1] From cave-fire sparks to the walls of today, Society draws every line we obey. Once it was clubs and raw brutal rage, Now it's a screen and a digital cage. The centuries shifted, the format's new, Invisible chains wrapped tight around you. Bright glowing screens from the dusk to the dawn Scream from the cradle: "Just watch and move on!" Schools and the screens keep the conditioning tight, Cartoons for kids program who we are inside. What to believe, how to think, where to run — Lose yourself fast in the matrix, it's done. [PRE-CHORUS] Who am I behind this wall of painted lies? Just a puppet actor under borrowed skies? The noise is snapping every living string... How do I find the truth beneath everything? [CHORUS] Turn off the noise! Cut the engine dead! Close your eyes and hear the silence instead! I'm not a puppet for your carving knife, I'm locking down my mind, ending the strife! Look deep inside where the truth stays still, Your heart will find its own rhythm and will! [VERSE 2] We chase the trophies this century drew, Forgetting how a human voice rings true. Fake success — hitting targets they designed, While living ideas choke inside your mind. But if you freeze and kill the artificial light, The virus can't infect you — you win the fight. [BRIDGE] Carved from a log, a boy dances on strings, The puppeteer backstage is pulling new strings. But Pinocchio rips every cord in the dark — He's finding himself in the pure living spark! (Hey! Cut the lies!) [CHORUS] Turn off the noise! Cut the engine dead! Close your eyes and hear the silence instead! I'm not a puppet for your carving knife, I'm locking down my mind, ending the strife! Look deep inside where the truth stays still, Your heart will find its own rhythm and will! [OUTRO] Be yourself... Not made of wood... [END]
