The Digital Cages

[Verse 1] They tightened the grip on the flow of the stream Decided what was real and what was a dream Doctors disappeared when they spoke out of line Truth was erased and replaced with the "approved" kind [Pre-Chorus] They called it safety, they called it care But it felt like chains wrapped around the air You couldn’t question, you couldn’t explore You could only repeat what they fed you before [Chorus] The digital cages… デジタルのかご They built them around us and called it protection デジタルのかご They fed us the poison and called it affection They silenced the healers, they silenced the wise And fed us the same approved lies デジタルのかご And we sat there and swallowed it all [Verse 2] The feed became poison, the scroll became chains They curated the truth and erased what remained People started turning on their own flesh and blood Just because they questioned the new sacred flood [Pre-Chorus] They didn’t need walls, they didn’t need bars They just needed fear and a handful of stars And once you were inside, once you took the bait You policed yourself and you sealed your own fate [Chorus] The digital cages… デジタルのかご They built them around us and called it protection デジタルのかご They fed us the poison and called it affection They silenced the healers, they silenced the wise And fed us the same approved lies デジタルのかご And we sat there and swallowed it all [Bridge] A generation grew up in the glow of the screen Never knowing what freedom had actually mean They traded their minds for a comfortable lie And called it connection while they slowly died [Final Chorus] The digital cages… デジタルのかご They’re still around us but the cracks are showing デジタルのかご The spell is breaking and the truth is glowing I load the silver, I speak the rite Some monsters learned to censor in the night デジタルのかご And I came here to tear them apart [Outro] デジタルのかご… They’re cracking now And the people inside Are starting to remember What it felt like to be free
