Joel Arsenault - Shackled to the lie Lyrics




Oh, the mask we're searching for is a truth
But every shadow hides the proof
Every silence a ruse, a ruse
We had it all figured out, chasing our dreams

A little shop on main, the life built on seams
But promises from the top turned into a noose
As we watched the walls closing, lost what we had to lose
Locked down, locked out, and locked away

They said it was for safety, but we're not okay
Our savings slipped through like sand in our hands
Just trying to breathe in a world we don't understand
Locked down, locked out, and locked away

They said it was for safety, but we're not okay
Our savings slipped through like sand in our hands
Just trying to breathe in a world we don't understand
Shadows turn to light, but we won't stay quiet

Our cries cut through the noise like a riot
Freedom's just a word when we're all caged in
Damned if we resist, and damned if we don't give a damn
Oh, the mask we're searching for is a truth

But every shadow hides the truth that we saw
It's a ruse, a ruse
We had it all figured out, chasing our dreams
A little shop on main, the life built on seams

But promises from the top turned into a noose
As we watched the walls closing, lost what we had to lose
Locked down, locked out, and locked away
They said it was for safety, but we're not okay

Our savings slipped through like sand in our hands
Just trying to breathe in a world we don't understand
Shadows turn to light, but we won't stay quiet
Our cries cut through the noise like a riot

Freedom's just a word when we're all caged in
Damned if we resist, and damned if we give in
Get up
They say that things with lives make it all bruise

Men in dresses run while they laugh like fools
They mocked the sacred, made it all a show
But we're not here for the spectacle, they need to know
We're more than numbers, we're hearts with fire

The first generation to burn under their fire
We'll break these chains, we'll tear down the walls
We'll rise from the ashes, heed our calls
Shackled to the light, but we won't stay quiet

Our voices like thunder, they can't deny it
They say we're free, but freedom's been a scam
Damned if we do, and damned if we don't give a damn
Here's to the rebels, the ones who won't break

The brave who stand tall, the ones who won't fake
Bethesda in the air, our hearts full of rage
We're tearing down the stage, setting a new age
We're tearing down the stage, setting a new age
