Unnatural Selection
Muse Lyrics

They'll laugh as they watch us fall
The powerful will ridicule and find amusement in our failure

The lucky don't care at all
The fortunate and privileged do not feel any responsibility

No chance for fate
Success or failure is determined by our own will and action, not luck

It's unnatural selection
Our society rewards those who are already in power and place them in positions of greater power

I want the truth
I seek honesty and transparency in our society and institutions

I'm hungry for some unrest
I am eager for change and progress, even if it means causing chaos

I wanna push it beyond a peaceful protest
I want to take more drastic and radical actions for change, beyond just gathering and expressing our opinions

I wanna speak in a language that they'll understand
I want to communicate our message and demands in a way that the powerful will be forced to listen and take action

Dedication to a new age
Commitment to a new era with a new mindset and approach to societal structures and issues

Is this the end of destruction and rampage?
Can we finally move past chaos and destruction in our pursuit of change?

Another chance to erase and then repeat it again
We keep making the same mistakes and starting over again instead of truly progressing

Counter balance this commotion
We must balance our passion for change with responsibility and stability

We're not droplets in the ocean
Our individual contributions and actions can make significant impact

No religion or mind virus
We need to be free from ideologies and beliefs that limit our ability to think and act independently

Is there a hope that the facts would ever find us?
Can we believe in the power of knowledge and truth to guide us towards progress?

Just make sure that you are looking out for number one
We must prioritize ourselves and our own agency in pursuing change

They'll laugh as they watch us crawl
Even if we are making small or slow progress, the powerful will still find it amusing and insignificant

The lucky don't share at all
Those with power and privilege do not feel the need to give others equal opportunities or resources

No hope for fate
We must create our own opportunities and success, rather than relying on destiny or luck

It's a random chance selection
Those in power are not necessarily the most deserving, but rather are chosen by chance

Try to ride out the storm
We must persevere through difficult times and challenges

Whilst they'll make you believe they are the special ones
The powerful will create a narrative of their own superiority and legitimacy

We trust this is enough
We must question whether the current systems and structures are truly enough for everyone's needs and well-being

You won't be the first, and you know that you won't be the last
Others have fought for change before us, and more will continue to do so in the future
