lyrics

Let me tell you a story about my generation
Where I live in a world loaded with information,
Who pass through universities
brains running through factories and salaries,
Driving past bridges cross-country
Looking for a vision of eternity
Hmm.. and everything to loose

We walk through gassed roads on Monday
Whispering facts, memories or somebody’s birthday,
In the small town rain where some children play
somebody is beaten, abused and dragged around by
a uniformed battalilon booted and armed, why?
He had too much to pay, too much to say,
No roof to sleep but a mouth to speak

REFRAIN:
The laws we live by are lies that don’t apply
to those who make them living in limousins up high

My! As I realized what’s happening,
my world scrolls down the news of a man brutalized,
My! Give it another three days and it’s normalized,
My territory, my property, my religion, my country,
my space, my dealers, my house, my wife, my kids,
my dog, my rats, my .com
Hmm.. and everything to lose

I was told that I had to stay low, she was told that she had to stay low,
they were told that they had to stay low, he was told that he had to stay low,
And it goes on, life goes on, don’t want a hole in the back of my head,
“Just forget about it, fantasize about another little body, baby” .. (REFRAIN)

Poets, painters stopped dreaming in a sigh,
Today the music goes to die,
In a cold dark limbo where I awake lie
in a digital haze longing for the crash of this economic phase,
This is my world where the mal-nourished
are sold into an industry of surrogacy,
Race, caste, intellect : a job for every kind
marketed in the name of a vacancy provided..

Where I have fallen behind to understand
the new definitions of slavery or bravey
or progress or regression or business
of organic paper cups from Amazonia at your tea party
Where am I gonna go? (yeah)
Where are we gonna go next?
Yeah everything to lose ..

Roads swept clean in control of non-conformist human minds
that the so-called “guardians of the people” systematically bind,
This is the story of my generation
where I live in a world loaded with information
Who pass through universities,
brains processed through factories and salaries,
Driving past bridges cross-country
looking for a vision, a vision, a vision
Oh, looking for a vision of reality, of eternity
