Sons of Plunder
Disturbed Lyrics

Tell me you like it
Asking for validation of an unoriginal and uninspired sound

You say you found yourself a new sound
Acknowledging someone else's belief in having discovered a fresh sound

The shit's loaded and ready to go
Claiming that the sound has potential and is ready to be sold

A bit too much just like the old sound
Critiquing the sound for being too derivative of existing music

Already heard it for the hundredth time
Expressing how tired the sound already seems

One hundred more, all have the same sound
Expecting other new music to sound just as unoriginal

Running around with all the sheep that you know
Criticizing the trend-following mentality of the music industry

"It sounds sublime, they're breaking new ground"
Mocking the empty praise given to unoriginal music

"They're sure to have another hit this time"
Sarcasm towards the predictability and commercial nature of the music industry

Come on, can't you just leave it alone
Urging people to stop imitating and copying existing sounds

It doesn't have any soul
Claiming that the unoriginal music lacks genuine emotion and authenticity

Just find a thing of your own
Encouraging artists to pursue their own unique style and sound

And stop pretending to know
Criticizing those who claim to innovate but are really just copying others

As the countless numbers hunger
Describing the desire for popularity and recognition in the music industry

For worldwide renown
The goal of achieving international recognition

All the pimping sons of plunder
Referring to greedy and exploitative music industry figures

Will roll up their sleeves
Will work hard to promote and sell the new music

All searching for the answers
Looking for the key to commercial success

They don't even care to know
Claiming that these industry figures are not concerned with artistic integrity

Give it to me
Asking for more of the unoriginal music

I'm still surrounded by the "new sound"
Stating that the music is still prevalent despite its lack of originality

I've had enough and I'm ready to go
Expressing a desire to move on from the unoriginal music

A stranglehold throughout the world now
Describing the overwhelming prevalence of the unoriginal music

The new obsession will fade in time
Believing that the trend of unoriginal music will eventually lose popularity

I think reminder of the past now
Viewing the unoriginal music as a throwback to earlier, already explored sounds

All convoluted, hardly ready to go
Describing the unoriginal music as messy and incomplete

Their whines and moans will never last now
Believing that the lack of authenticity in the music will cause it to become irrelevant

I think you've given us our fill this time
Feeling that the music has been overplayed and lacks staying power

As it's blown apart
The eventual end of the trend of unoriginal music

Hundreds thrown away
Countless unoriginal songs becoming obsolete

Makes me question, just what I believe
The reaction to the overwhelming amount of unoriginal music causes introspection

Brothers torn apart
The divisive nature of the music industry

Mindless drones enslaved
Feeling that the trend of unoriginal music is reducing creativity and encouraging conformity

Makes me search for an answer
Reflecting on the importance of artistic authenticity and meaning

I don't want to know
Acknowledging the difficulty of finding original and meaningful music

It's like a plague from below
Comparing the prevalence of unoriginal music to a harmful disease

Killing all that I know
The destructive effect of the lack of authenticity in popular music

One hundred voices the same
The repetitive and unoriginal nature of popular music

Drench their sorrow in fame
Describing the superficial nature of popular music with shallow lyrics and simplistic melodies
