Hacktivist - Rotten lyrics

We can just about breathe but we're not alive We can just about breathe but we're not alive Look into the future; will peace be found Or man still shoot ya? Technology rises, uses for the greater good Or still cause crisis? What's the verdict? We called for God But do you think He heard it? And if He did, did He think mankind was worth it? Did He think we deserved it? Microchips; there's a human circuit Spread worldwide from beneath the surface No green left on the earth Cursed, stuck in reverse, only getting worse We await the grave, won't live long, urban decay Talking about these days gone by Still question why I'll spill any enemy; I don't wanna wake up With cables stuck in my gut And have to cut some chip out my neck To eject all the lies they been tellin' me They keep telling us that the nightmare will end But it never does, we're the rebellers And we tried to defend our heaven But then yet again they deaded us Plugged us into the machine Now we're livin' life in a bad dream I hate being stuck in the baitrix, mate Can't wait to escape and wake up my team Look what the law has become Check what the corporate forces have done We can't run all the doors have been shut I'm exhausted and cut; World War IV has begun We can just about breathe but we're not alive The sickness begins; see it in our eyes Rotten from the inside out, you can shout, you can scream But in this future world we bleed (We bleed) We can just about breathe but we're not alive The sickness begins; see it in our eyes Rotten from the inside out, you can shout, you can scream But in this future world d**h's the only guarantee Filling our brains with the enemies' notions We counteract explosions I'm a virus, sicker than a back door Trojan k**ing off opponents We are the cyborg soldiers 'cause freedom is the focus You've been warned if you are not strong Then you will be left for the vultures I watched World War IV approach us As we enter another dimension Drones hovering, scanning our bodies to take information As we fight alongside the resistance We're the lyrical resurrection Everything's been censored I've been frozen and sectioned My eyes are red, I detect tension Like a Skynet invention Yes, listen They failed us, they failed us in stages and lied about it Didn't think that we would write about this Orwellian reality and fight the powers They caged us; promised that they would save us They made us worship their saviors First it was martial law and tasers Now I'm rippin' this ID code from my skin with a razor Wake up, wake up, wake up, too many man'll fall victim Flushed out get lost in the system So listen; it's too late to appreciate wisdom You're trapped; this is reality I hope you appreciate prison We can just about breathe but we're not alive The sickness begins; see it in our eyes Rotten from the inside out, you can shout, you can scream But in this future world we bleed (We bleed) We can just about breathe but we're not alive The sickness begins; see it in our eyes Rotten from the inside out, you can shout, you can scream But in this future world d**h's the only guarantee Did you really think the government was backing you? Woop woop, yeah, they're attacking you Yeah, yeah, they be lacking too Tell you what we know that they know what we know And I wish I was eleven foot taller Wish I was a bat boy baller Then I could've prevented this or that Put my faith on the line and a gun to my face And it could've been the end of Traxx Hold me back Know a couple brothers that will hold me back Now I got a tracker on my arm and I can't go nowhere I refuse to be abused but I can't fight back And I know you can hear us and I know you can hear us But I can't fight back, I got the brrp on my back (We can just about breathe but we're not alive) (We can just about breathe but we're not alive)
