The Matrix
confined among the corners of this cell
twisted between reality and facade to where I can't tell
the difference between addiction and a choice
because I was never given one amidst the white noise
put me in a box to control my thoughts
by signing me up for a private inbox
where all imagination gets caught
in a web of lies
where too many dreamers dreams go to die
but it is time for us to open up our eyes
the energy that never dies
and take back our pre-determined lives
while we do all the giving
they are the ones out there living
give our time, our effort, and obedience
only to be a spectator in the audience?
we have all been enslaved not just the slaves
while we are out here working, they're the ones getting paid
the only truth is the mind
open up and look inside
they can't win what they can't hide
this is the matrix, we are all connected
it is time to accept all the possibilities we once rejected.
