Luststruck
De̊ǰa Lyrics

Everyday I take the time to listen
I take the time every day to pay attention to what is happening around me.

And it seems pretty clear,
It is becoming increasingly evident.

You got a system.
There is a particular way in which things are done.

Listening to bias take
We are influenced by the opinions of others.

Geting listless.
We are becoming apathetic and lacking in energy.

I can see the great divide
There is a clear separation between different groups or ideas.

We're in it.
We are all involved in this situation.

Look at your big charade
The way things are being done is a huge pretense.

We live it
We are all affected by this way of life.

Forcing us to behave
We are being compelled to act in a particular way.

Like prisoners
We are trapped and limited in our options.

Art can be such a curse
Being creative can be a burden.

It's submission
We are giving in and following the norm.

When you know the only way
There seems to be no other option.

Is the system.
We are required to conform to the current way of doing things.

Baby it's cruel to us
This way of life is harsh and unkind to us.

Denial just fuels the lust
Refusing to acknowledge the problem only makes it worse.

Diluting our hope and trust.
Our optimism and faith are being weakened.

Looking out upon the lines
Observing the groups of people.

Of believers
Those who trust in the current system.

Feels like they're hearing lies
They are being misled.

But can't see it
They are unaware of this deception.

Power is a deadly vice
Holding onto power can be destructive.

Make or breaker.
This situation will either make or break us.

Everyday we're more resigned,
Every day, we are becoming more accepting of this way of life.

To our maker.
To the person or people who are controlling the system.
