Time Thieves

[Verse 1] They arrive with papers that don’t match their names Smiling like they’re here to play the game They slip into companies, they slip into schools Then quietly open the door for more of their kind to use [Pre-Chorus] They don’t build, they don’t create They just take up space and seal your fate They multiply while the systems break And they smile while they watch your future fade [Chorus] Time thieves… 時の盗人 They steal tomorrow while you’re still awake Time thieves… 時の盗人 They drain the well so your children can’t drink They clog the roads, they clog the schools They take the jobs and rewrite the rules 時の盗人 And they’ll keep coming until there’s nothing left to lose [Verse 2] They bring incompetence like it’s a gift Then act offended when the standards shift They don’t assimilate, they replicate And they punish the natives who dare to complain [Pre-Chorus] They speak of justice, they speak of need But they’re here to plant a different seed One that grows until your children bleed For the sins of their endless greed [Chorus] Time thieves… 時の盗人 They steal tomorrow while you’re still awake Time thieves… 時の盗人 They drain the well so your children can’t drink They clog the roads, they clog the schools They take the jobs and rewrite the rules 時の盗人 And they’ll keep coming until there’s nothing left to lose [Bridge] They don’t want to join, they want to replace They don’t want a seat, they want the whole space And when the future finally breaks in two They’ll move on to the next host to do it to [Final Chorus] Time thieves… 時の盗人 Your time is ending, your harvest is through 時の盗人 We see what you’re doing, we’re coming for you I load the silver, I speak the rite Some monsters learned to smile in the light 時の盗人 And I came here to end you tonight [Outro] 時の盗人… They steal the future But tonight We take it back
