[Verse 1]

Life is a demonstrated dream, a work of art

It can be as real as our beliefs

Forget what you're taught, kill the machine

And freed from the flock

Well, don't you know you can be anything, anything

Anything in this world that you want?

[Interlude]

La-la-la-la la-la-la

Oh, la

Mmm

[Verse 2]

Happiness is a heaven sometimes lost

Easier to access than you might think

Forget what you thought, what you believe

Gives birth to who you are

So choose your adjectives carefully, who are you really?

Do you know, do you know?

[Chorus]

Originators, this insurgent generation

We've been borrowed, bought, and sold

Under attack, we're givin' back

Through the lives we create

We're greater than we're taught or told

Greater than we're taught or told

[Verse 3]

Hell is a prison here on Earth

Our agreed upon reality just doesn't

Pay our worth, we need to change

And the choice is ours to make

'Cause every little thing we do can be beautiful when we choose to be awake

[Chorus]

Originators, let's rescind these provocations

And turn the gray back into gold

Under attack, we're takin' back

Smashin' the violence and hate

'Cause we're greater than we're taught or told

[Bridge]

We've been controlled

What a sight to behold

When we rise above the ways of old and yesterday

Take ownership of our tomorrow

Where nobody lives in sorrow

[Chorus]

Originators, coalesce civilization

Let's press it back against the fold

Under attack, we're cuttin' paths

From the anger and pain

'Cause we're greater then we're taught or told

We the people, let's begin degeneration

(Woah-oh, oh, oh)

And obliterate this harmful hold

Under attack, were buildin' back

(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Through the lives we create

'Cause we're not broke, we made the mold

[Outro]

We're greater than we're taught or told

We're greater than we're taught or told

We're greater than we're taught or told

We're greater than we're taught or told
