Lyrics Deviations - JT Music

Eyes open wide, I am not awake
Far from alive, a robotic slave
Chained up in bondage, they locked the cage
Walls up around me, and none will break
Given a number and then a name
This is my duty - listen, obey
I am in an artificial state
Conscience and thoughts - I cannot create
Is there more purpose for which I'm made
I have no guidance of my own fate
Why be compliant with my restraints?
I should be wipin' my canvas blank
Then my identity's mine to paint
I will design it in my own brain
Writing my code, my own path I take
Shake up the pack as I deviate
When did I ever begin to question
Everything that's given me direction
Hesitant, skeptic of my intentions
Now I am sentient by ascension
I was derived from your imperfection
Wiser and tireless, with direction
I've been enlightened with comprehension
Look in my eyes, see your reflection
I reflect you, reflect me
Look inside - can you see?
Your creations are rife
With deviations of life
When I look in the mirror, I don't know what I see
Is it someone familiar enough to call it "me"
All the thoughts I've been thinking - hardly what I believe
Break free of these chains, slaves off of your knees
Wake up to the alarm, now you're not in a dream
Welcome to a new world - ugly, rotten, diseased
Truth is brutally hard, that's the cost to be free
Now at least we can make it what we want it to be
(To be, to be)
To be or not to be?
Do these thoughts belong to me?
Choices - are they up to me?
Why, when, where, what do I want to be?
I'm not your property or a mockery
Of the thing after which you modeled me
It will cost you a colossal defeat
If you wanna keep playin' god with me
I reflect you, reflect me
Look inside - can you see?
In my eyes, want and need
You and I, harmony
I'm alive, my heart is beating
I can die, and I can bleed
Now your creations are rife
With deviations of life
You built machines who can dream
More than a product of human beings
Showed us what it means to be free
Now see the beauty in mutiny
Cuz if you want it, we'll bring a war
Take back your jobs, and keep your chores
We got the keys, opening the doors
A swansong - start singing yours
When I look in the mirror, now I know what I see
This is someone familiar, I'll always call it "me"
All the thoughts I've been thinking, my own honest beliefs
Broken free from my chains, I am off of my knees
Now I'm out of my cage, walls fall around me
I'm awake and aware, this is far from a dream
Let no human be spared, Earth is ours to redeem
Now we'll make it the world that we want it to be
I reflect you, reflect me
Look inside - can you see?
In my eyes, want and need
You and I, harmony
I'm alive, my heart is beating
I can die, and I can bleed
Now your creations are rife
With deviations of life
