This is 100 percent a WIP and a lot of stuff is changing, but this is a rough sketch and im starting to like the chorus (ik its a lil cheesy rn and im hoping to change that, the rhythm is weird ik ik im fixing that, song writing is a wierd)
Footsteps echo on the grey cement
March in line like drafted soldiers
My skull is cracked, my thoughts are spent
As they beat out our shattered dreams
But what I don’t realise is that I’m already dead
Cuz the gun is pressed to back of my head
Crushed to fit the mold
Forced into Conformity
Bound the restless, chained the bold
Silenced by Authority
A system built to educate
Failed where it swore to guide
Think not, Speak not, learn to obey
Forced to kneel before them and
Swallow your pride
Confined and chained to my desk
13 years I’m stuck in hell
The weight of boots upon my neck
Behind the bars of jail cells
But by oppressing generations they had failed to inspire
They had just put a lot more fuel on the fire
Crushed to fit the mold
Forced into Conformity
Bound the restless, chained the bold
Silenced by Authority
A system built to educate
Failed where it swore to guide
Don’t think don’t talk, learn to obey
Forced to kneel before them and
Swallow your pride
Bruised and beaten, black and blue
I climbed the stairs onto the stage
Still holding on to hope and truth
My mind was filled with violent rage
And as they handed me the keys to my locks and chains
They expect me to go and fix their mistakes
Crushed to fit the mold
Forced into Conformity
Bound the restless, chained the bold
Silenced by Authority
A system built to educate
Failed where it swore to guide
Don’t think don’t talk, learn to obey
Forced to kneel before them and
Swallow Your Pride
