American Deity lyrics translation: THOUGHT RIOT American Deity song texte and letras THOUGHT RIOT American Deity tab, paroles and testo THOUGHT RIOT American Deity Karaoke and Music Video - none yet
When I looked and directed my gaze to the drives of life,
the drives of my age, what I saw left me with a sick feeling inside.
Happiness, distorted and construed,
to mean finding all new shit to consume and all other aims are just a waste of time.
What have we done?
Took life - drained it of passion.
Now all that remains is a drive to profit.
When I saw that this was the goal - their meaning of life, a drive to own
I rejected their ways and looked deeper still,
and I found pieces of paper more important than people,
suffering vindicated as acceptable.
This drive to own is destructive to our will to create.
I can see those dollar signs glittering right there in their eyes,
but I can turn my head away and forge a better day.
In the sunset I can see approaching a new drive for life, one that`s not empty.
It seeks to restore vitality and joy.
It rejects that cruel notion that life for capital is justification.
Praise the harbingers of this new joy.
