Control

Fight the power and the power will fight back
You're only as good as the system you hack
If you become a problem you will be replaced
Banned, shut down, erased

The world has capsized, gone erratic
Constitutional rights have dissolved into static
The truth is based on misinformation
Reality is only a hallucination

(The revolution will be synthesized)
(Revolution will be s-s-synthesized)

Another decade gone terribly wrong
Effectively affecting generations to come
We only buy into what we can sell
We only want to protect you from yourself

With all your pleas for the media-hype
We're busy creating a new stereotype
Amending the story to keep it intact
And make sure the vision accomodates fact

(Do you know who owns and controls the station you're watching?)
(Does the church you go rely on destruction?)
(Does it matter?)
Does it matter?
(The revolution will be synthesized)

(The revolution will be synthesized)
(The revolution will be s-s-synthesized)

Corporate wars versus plastic celebrity
Competing for headlines with pills for virility
Ulterior motives in a shroud of secrecy
The holy grail is the mark of supremacy

Killing machines for destruction and mayhem
Can we pity the victims if we don't even know them
If anything goes wrong we blame the middleman
'Cause we're not gonna stray from the agenda at hand

(Do you know who owns and controls the station you're watching?)
(Does the church you go rely on destruction?)
(The revolution will be synthesized)
(The revolution will be synthesized)
