What It Means Video (MV)

Hoping for a better day, dreaming of a better life
Picking sides in petty fights
(Distraction, distraction, distraction)
Coping with another fear, drowning in another lie
Standing up for what you're told and paying the price
(Distraction)
Special treatment, special needs, wars that never end in peace
Guys in suits will tell you what
(The right side of history means)
Pick a side and toe the line, pretend you care and have a spine
Your Facebook Insta avatars
Should virtue signal something benign
Meanwhile, the good ideas are getting bastardized
(Oh, God forbid you figure out how f*cked you really are!)
You want a truth that fits your crooked paradise
Do you really
Do you ever
Do you even know what it means?
You are a prisoner to your own ignorance
A slave who believes he's free
Whichever lane you pick, it makes no difference
But do you even know what it means?
Scrolling through another day, catered content on display
Don't forget, you have to pray
(Distraction, distraction, distraction)
To rotten idols, shallow gods, powerless to change the odds
Ego constipation helps to never connect the dots
Half-baked intellectual, arrogant, exceptional
Useful, but dispensable
(Keep dreaming, and dreaming, and dreaming)
Pick a side and toe the line, pretend you care and have a spine
Your social media avatars
Should virtue signal something benign
Meanwhile, the good ideas are getting bastardized
(Oh, God forbid you figure out how f*cked you really are!)
You want a truth that fits your crooked paradise
Do you really
Do you ever
Do you even know what it means?
You are a prisoner to your own ignorance
A slave who believes he's free
Whichever lane you pick, it makes no difference
But do you even know what it means?
(Netflix and chill!)
Oh, we don't want our feelings hurt
That shit is too disturbing
Can't let the bubble burst
So keep on flirting, farting, circle jerking
What is the cost of denial? Who's paying the price?
A daily bloody toll, a very human sacrifice
It's somehow justified, expected even, or implied
Through mental acrobatics you're supposed to be selectively blind
Never mind the cope, bliss is found in ignorance
Hear just what you want to hear
(In cognitive dissonance)
Somewhere deep somewhere below you feel there's something you should know
Perhaps, the truth, perhaps some hope
(Located at the end of your rope)
Meanwhile, the good ideas are getting bastardized
(Oh, God forbid you figure out how f*cked you really are!)
You want a truth that fits your crooked paradise
Do you really
Do you ever
Do you even know what it means?
You are a prisoner to your own ignorance
(Ignorance)
A slave who believes he's free
(You're a slave)
Whichever lane you pick, it makes no difference
(No difference)
But do you even know what it means?
(What it means)
You are a prisoner to your own ignorance
(Ignorance)
A slave who believes he's free
(You're a slave)
Whichever lane you pick, it makes no difference
(No difference)
But do you even know what it means?
