Akala – Welcome To Dystopia Lyrics
Lyrics
- Conform x 15
Verse 1
- It's bigger than your local colloquium
- In a world that is dystopian
- Kid's aren't born in fallopians
- They're grown in tubes and inserted growth in them
- Dust is choking them
- But this ain't the type of pollution we place in the ocean
- It's apathy, stench we can't quench
- Don't matter who inhabits the bench
- Or wig or gown, hammer or crown, oval or down
- Jokes on us, we're not even frowning
- Much less pissed off
- We're switched off
- Smiling villany, the wickedest tyranny
- Is the one that says fuck you so nice
- You say thanks, and shake hands
- Say he's your man, forget all your plans
- Reach your hand out you see your in bondage
- The idea of beauty is blondeness and other such nonsense
- What our response is?
- Conform and amputate conscience
Hook x 4
- Conform. Obey.
- Transform. Sleep easy.
Verse 2
- Ah, that good old human conditioning
- Ever since days of the pyramids
- Make us invalid, which means invalid
- Wrestle with things we can't manage
- Like peace and equality
- Which minority is the authority?
- Whoever has property, it's all idolatry
- Even if you have no image of God, do you follow me?
- Do we not all worship money?
- When you think about it it's quite funny
- Can't eat money, can't breathe money
- Can't inject it and kill disease money
- But we pray at it all till we're guns and tanks
- And offer the money god a million sacraficial lambs
- Who's the priest in charge of sacraficial plans?
- Let us pray and hold hands
- War is peace - ignorance strength - freedom is slavery x3
- Not only do we believe that creed
- We hold it deep and praise it as bravery
- Yeah
- Along with the vision and difference
- So we can maintain the belligerence
- To their pain, feel no shame
- It's all just stages in a video game
- That our kids play kill, kill, kill
- Death is such a thrill, thrill, thrill
- Swallow junk, still feel ill
- Take blue pill, pill, pill
Hook x 3
- Conform. Obey.
- Transform. Sleep easy.
Verse 3
- Sometimes I feel like I'm losing my mind
- I do beliee our nature's kind
- Just confused and we're so far gone
- Got no clue how to right these wrongs
- So we bury our head in the sand or the desk
- Anywhere but inside of our flesh
- If I looked at my self - I would see I am the enemy
- I am not honest nor kind nor caring nor sharing
- Or any of the many thing that I pretend to be
- I'm selfish and arrogant, and obedient
- Follow truth only when it's convenient
- Accept laws that I know that decieve me
- So I can sleep in my bed easy
- Don't blame governments, they are just us
- If they are corrupt, then we are corrupt
- Look back through history
- What makes you think that we would act differently?
- If we were in power,
- We would devourer whoever the underclass were like cowards
- The question is, is this inevitable?
- Is there good or evil?
- Is it terrible?
- Or just survival?
- Some say it's overspill from days when we were tribal
- I don't buy that I think you will find that
- That's an excuse if we just don't buy facts
- Everything we really need to survive actually makes us feel good inside
- Sex feels good, food feels good
- Damn, even taking a pill feels good!
- So if war and hate were our natural causes
- Why would we need conditioning for it?
- But I ain't gonna forfeit my privilliges
- Now I'll get back in line and follow my orders
