Lyrics
Find another songLife is a demonstrated dream, a work of art
It can be as real as our beliefs
Forget what you're taught, kill the machine
And freed from the flock
Well, don't you know you can be anything, anything
Anything in this world that you want?
La-la-la la la la la
Oh, la
Mmm
Happiness is a heaven sometimes lost
Easier to access than you might think
Forget what you thought, what you believe
Gives birth to who you are
So choose your adjectives carefully, who are you really?
Do you know, do you know?
Originators, this insurgent generation
We've been borrowed, bought, and sold
Under attack, we're giving back
Through the lives we create
We're greater than we're taught or told
Greater than we're taught or told
Hell is a prison here on Earth
Our agreed upon reality just doesn't
Pay our worth, we need to change
And the choice is ours to make
'Cause every little thing we do can be beautiful when we choose to be awake
Originators, let's rescind these provocations
And turn the gray back into gold
Under attack, we're taking back
Smashing the violence and hate
'Cause we're greater than we're taught or told
We've been controlled
What a sight to behold
When we rise above the ways of old and yesterday
Take ownership of our tomorrow
Where nobody lives in sorrow
Originators, coalesce civilization
Let's press it back against the fold
Under attack, we're cutting paths
From the anger and pain
'Cause we're greater then we're taught or told
We the people, let's begin degeneration (whoa, oh, oh)
And obliterate this harmful hold
Under attack, were building back (hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Through the lives we create (hey! Hey! Hey!)
'Cause we're not broke, we made the mold
We're greater than we're taught or told
We're greater than we're taught or told
We're greater than we're taught or told
We're greater than we're taught or told
