If you hit the right lever
You will get a pellet
But if you try another one
The shock will be the same.
We are trained to follow
And we are raised to obey
Either by occasional reward
Or certain punishment.
Learning how to drool
And learning how to acquire
We search for satisfaction
Quick and easy.
The view may change
But we stay in place
Debt slaves to an illusion
Unattainable and fake.
Never closer
No matter what we do
We stay in our place
Running in a wheel.
Old before we know it
Still chasing a dream
Trapped in a bubble
Outside looking in.
None the wiser
We believe
What we are told
That someone else
Is always to blame.
Is always to blame.
It’s not about
What others might think
And it’s not about
What others might do.
Because what is it
That we could lose
Nothing that matters
And nothing that lasts.
Reality is here
And everywhere
A truth bigger than any lie
Told over and over again.
Preying upon the foolish
And murdering the defenseless
Hating all that is good
And beautiful.
Let us all awaken
And jump free and clear
Even if it hurts
And even if we lose.
Let them hiss
And gnash their teeth
Stewing in their own hatred
Foolish and dumb.
The cat is already out
And more alive than ever
The second greater than the first
Of many and more
