C.O.N.F.O.R.M.
This instrument can teach, it can illuminate, and yes it even can inspire But it can do so only to the extent that humans are determined to use it to those ends Otherwise, it's nothing but wires and lights in a box Running, rushing, blood spilling Tears are pouring, it seems the well is never filled Mentally exhausted, overworking, take another pill [?] corporations stacking billions These corporations manipulating our daily lives Got us exasperated working through all of our days and nights Sacrifices your leisure time to end up at a 9 to 5 To work until you are deceased without a single moment for peace Never still, it just keeps rolling down the hill, nobody tries to stop it [?] get you killed, you'll be a trending topic A cog up in the wheel A sacrifice to the [?] being built Caught up in the matrix, virtual digital minds We don't memorize phone numbers or directions when We drive We don't even have to go shopping to get our food and buy things We only push a button, we don't even have to try Can't even lift an eye up away from my phone Letras de cancionesTalking to Instagram live just so I don't feel alone Flooding my Twitter feed with my deepest feelings and thoughts My page is public but my sense of conversation is blocked I validate myself through followers just to feel important Instead of living in the moment, I much rather record it Nobody knows my first name but know my Snapchat handle I'm just a millennial trapped in social media standards C-O-N-F-O-R-M I see oppression within an effort C-O-N-F-O-R-M To own the rights of my expression C-O-N-F-O-R-M I see expression, influence, the feeling C-O-N-F-O-R-M To wipe our opinions, we are the meaning of conforming Shelling out melodies and feverish frequencies [?] boardroom salaries, they pay me in exposure No penalties when they're late paying me No benefits seen, just [?] foreclosure Advertise that revenue, everything that you consume All for them, less for you, they do all the sorting Try to figure out ways to make you feel important While they keep robbing you blind, hold extortion In some sense that's the power of the Internet On the other hand, that's a perfect formula for the dark side This is our generation's form of nuclear power How we deal with this will be the stuff in history C-O-N-F-O-R-M I see oppression within an effort C-O-N-F-O-R-M To own the rights of my expression C-O-N-F-O-R-M I see expression, influence, the feeling C-O-N-F-O-R-M To wipe our opinions, we are the meaning of conformity From Letras Mania
