What If -Ism
What if -ism? What if we actually tried fairness, just once?
Lyrics
[Verse 1] Take a moment, take a breath, Pause a while and think… What is fair, what is right, Why does history repeat? Stalin, Putin, on the rise, Authoritarians in disguise, Not about the red or blue, It’s the ego’s covert truth. [Chorus] What if it’s not communism? What if it’s not capitalism? Not about racism, sexism, elitism, All these isms… just masks for narcissism. [Verse 2] Oh, humanity, why so blind? Fooled by lies time after time. Are we dumbed, or numbed, or dulled? Like retarded goldfish in a bowl. Contrarian skies storming high, Endless loops of endless lies. Encore, encore, encore, Repeating wars we’ve seen before. [Bridge] Are we furled up in our pride? Lost in currents of the tide? Can we learn, can we see, Can we break this loop and be free? [Chorus] What if it’s not communism? What if it’s not capitalism? Not about racism, sexism, elitism, All these isms—just masks for narcissism. [Verse 3] Think deep, think slow, Look within, let your soul glow. What if freedom’s not outside? What if it’s the ego we should fight? [Outro] Oh why, oh why, oh why, Do we dance to the same old lie? Are we foolish, selfish, lost in the mist, Or just tired souls seeking bliss? Endless loops, contrarian skies, Authoritarian storms in disguise. Encore, encore, why oh why, Are we still fooled by these endless lies?
