letra de cog in the machine - abacus (uk)
ears ringing, my heart’s been stinging
sometimes i can’t workout why i’m even living
had stress been clinging to my chest
i swear it’s hard to reach your best in the quest of living
been missing in this mess, i just try to vent
try to write bars, cos on bars my heart depends
been writing many bars that’ll cause offense
now i’m in defence, as i point out my flaws again
in a storm again, i’ve seen distorted men
applauding, those recording sh-t, conforming them
taught to live bored, and chase wh0r-s at week end
your core deprived of thoughts, you’ll never walk again
cos your taught by them, to never start a movement
in a land without change, those at the top are never losing
but the bottom isn’t moving, rotting up and boozing
til you learn first hand, you don’t know what the truth is
if we’re born equal, why are politicians demons
and why do they have power unlike any other people?
if half of the people are under average wage
then how come their views are never portrayed?
in this develish game, they’ll never level the plains
they take the cleverest brains, and sedate their aims
so they just keep you in line, and take in tropical rays
though we could all have a say through technological gains
sitting in a system, sixty million are voiceless
in a mental prison, where they’re making all your choices
in education, from young, you’re taught that your unique
but your put down when you speak and when you try to chase your dreams
cos they couldn’t give a f-ck about your p-ssion
if you practice you’ll take action and they don’t want that to happen
cos if your unique, and don’t have clouds fogging up your dreams
then who’s left to be a cog in the machine
you can tell i ain’t a leader as i preach realness
speaking many words to leave an mp speechless
the set up of the system makes a man feel weakness
broke away from the teachings, so now i feel freedom
i discovered what belief is, i saw beyond the lies
i spit a hundred lines, which the rich are gon’ despise
they chat sh-t, they’re words are covered up with flies
so i swear before i die, i’m gonna open up your eyes
i’m sick of seeing people brainwashed by the media
from when you’re born, the system is misleading ya
taught to not be selfish like there’s no i in team
but there’s no team in i, so i really ain’t believing ya
swayed to care about your company, it’s funny g
like you should wanna make a rich man money see
this country is crumbling the brains of 60 million
the set out of the system is deciding your positioning
live your one life for financial security
that desire for stability is standard conformity
it never is absorbing me, can’t live life thoughtlessly
the idea was taught to me, i never bought it see
ironic, cos if i’m honest it’s diabolic
cos buying things is meant to empty my wallet
but won’t live in this delirious prison of materialism
it’s clear what they’re wishing, but i keep writing my sonnets
sitting in a system, sixty million are voiceless
in a mental prison, where they’re making all your choices
in education, from young, you’re taught that your unique
but your put down when you speak and when you try to chase your dreams
cos they couldn’t give a f-ck about your p-ssion
if you practice you’ll take action and they don’t want that to happen
cos if your unique, and don’t have clouds fogging up your dreams
then who’s left to be a cog in the machine
