Testo Sincere

Is it us or them?

See the light they lit for us all
Just to show how perfect we are
'Cause we are slaves of these modern times
Where we all demand to be stars

They're feeding us to the hounds
Time goes fast and life moves away
There's no time to turn it around
And everyone who's born in our time
Is programmed to take up their part

They're keeping us underground

You wanna be someone with self-respect
For the "likes" you chase: they don't mean anything
You wanna feel something that is sincere
And the words you'll say will be the spear
That strikes the lies they're telling us are the rules

Play your role in this modern farce Feed your thirst for stardom and pride
But be aware the truth won't erase
And you are the seeds that you plant

In shallowness we all drown

Are you here? Are you real?
Do you reflect on the water?
And you pretend that you matter
Setting a price on your thoughts

Is it life: to conceal genuine value of others?
Selling your heart for a dollar?
Wearing your greed as a crown?

You wanna be someone with self-respect
For the "likes" you chase: they don't mean anything
You wanna feel something that is sincere
And the words you'll say will be the spear
That strikes the lies they're telling us are the rules

For the "likes" you chase: they don't mean anything
You wanna feel something that is sincere
And the words you'll say will be the spear
That strikes the lies they're telling us are rules
