Modern times


Look into my eyes
To the walls impending over me
Try to escape from this game
Where human logic fails
DOWN with no hope or safety
Where illusions can t exist
Where we are is a living hell
Yeah, this hell on heart

I feel the rage grow inside me
Rage against society
Where dirty money rules
Where corruption is no crime
From down below
TO THE TOP
Corruption rules this system
Where the only thing that counts
Is gaining power day by day

We are wasting our lives
Modern times


Factories producing smoke
Being built everywhere
Spreading death around
Careless about the air we breathe
WHO wants to stop this game
This game we practice everyday
By these cruel minds
That I don t want by my side
We re going to pay the price
Modern times

Out in the streets
A dope pusher sells his fix
Kids fourteen and less
Inject new blood
Into the veins of this world system
Small fishes growing fast
Will one day become big sharks
And the jail cells
Remain too small to contain
This big pack
So tell me why is injustice the norm
In a world ruled by ignorance?
Racism and conformism
Is that what people want?
See them sitting on their thrones
Gawking at their televisions
Preaching demolition
They ve drafted a new player
For this game
That we play

Bridge:
In our everyday life
And there is no way out
Without paying the final price
In these freakin modern times
These fuckin modern times

We are wasting our lives
Modern times

Those who choose to close their eyes
Can only fantasize
That this silent nightmare
Really does not exist
Just try walking through this path
Forgetting that no one cares
So we re rotten to the core
Now FOREVERMORE

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
