They push us around, try to shape what we know

Feed us the lies, then say “just let it go”

Take away rights from the people below

Fake us out like we don’t see through the show

Puppets to media, feeding us lies

No background research, just teaching disguise

Poison the youth with the things they decide

While we’re just sitting here watching it slide


[Verse 2]

Politicians sitting high in their chairs

Making decisions from places they’ve never been therе

Paying for sin while dividing the skin

Claiming they’rе winning while nobody wins

Letting the criminals sit on the throne

Sending subliminal messages: “leave it alone”

Quit beating the youth like you own what we are

We’re breaking the system, we’re raising the bar


[Pre-Chorus]

Hear the rebels yell

Break out of this hell

We don’t need your lies

We can think ourselves


[Chorus]

Break the chains of society

We all just wanna be free

Stop censoring what we see

Let us remember the truth we need

Break the chains, let it fall

No more dividing us all

We see through everything

We won’t be puppets at all


[Verse 3]

Painting a color line, splitting us equal

Building a wall in between all the people

Hiding the truth behind what is legal

While we keep falling down deeper and steeper

We’re bleeding inside with our friends

Still fighting it out to the end

They love when we follow pretend

And idolize lies they defend

Actors play heroes on screens

While real life ain’t what it seems

Corporations pulling the strings

Profit is all that it means


[Bridge]

Don’t tie your mind to a cross

Then crucify your own thoughts

Don’t let them tell you you’re lost

Think for yourself at all costs


[Chorus]

Break the chains of society

We all just wanna be free

Stop censoring what we see

Let us remember the truth we need


[Outro]

Hear the rebels yell…

Break out of this hell…

We all just wanna be free…
