lyrics

You used to reach for the stars
dreamt the future was a given
You thought you held all the cards
The deck was stacked for the chosen
You used to trust who they were
Thought they respected our power
Their tools divide where we stand
Our numbers grow by the hour
We used to learn how to think
Now we all learn how to cower
They used to say eat the rich
We used to say fight the power!

Remember when we used to be,
in touch
We used to fight for everyone,
we loved
But now we lost it all
Take back, what’s lost
Restore the broken past
And Seek to be one
A part of everything
Their venom, undone
A piece of light restored
The final reward
Unveil the unexplored

Tracing light
Coursing time
Seeing through
The veil of truth

You used to strive for the top
Felt the future was yours
You used to roll with the dice
Luck is left for the worst
We used to think for ourselves
Now we’re thinking for each other
They used to say bite your tongue
Now we scream until we’ve won

Remember when we used to be,
in touch
We used to fight for everyone,
we loved
But now we lost it all
Take back, what’s lost
Restore the broken past
And Seek to be one
A part of everything
Their venom, undone
A piece of light restored
The final reward
Unveil the unexplored
