ELECTRIC ISOLATION IN A DIGITAL WORLD OF DREAMS DELETE YOUR MEMORY BURN THE BRIDGE ALL SLAVE TO SCREEN IT USED TO BE BETTER CAUSE MY BRAIN IS GETTING FRIED A BEAST COME TO TAKE OUR SOUL PROGRESSION IS A LIE TOO MANY FUCKING PEOPLE ON THE ROAD THEY CAN KILL CULTURE CLASH CORPO TRICK DONT TAKE THE PILL YOU SAY IT'S GETTING BETTER BUT THAT IS JUST FOR YOU ONLY FOR THE FEW FROM THE IVORY VIEW FUCK YOUR VIRTUAL EGO THE REALITY IS FAKE WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE TO CHOP THE HEAD OFF THE SNAKE? WE KILLED OLD GODS AND REPLACED WITH ANEW INVISIBLE HIDDEN SOURCE WATCHING YOU DONT CALL IT EVOLUTION THIS MACHINE CREATION I WROTE THIS AS A FICTION LIKE A SPELL COMING TRUE SAY GOODBYE TO THE WORLD THAT YOU ONCE KNEW WE SAW IT COMING BUT WHAT DID WE DO? MODERN TIME MODERN RAGE CANNOT FIND THIS KEY TO CAGE NOT THE WAY NO TURNING BACK IN DARK LIGHT THRU THE NEON BLACK IT'S A SHAME THAT THINGS HAD TO GO THIS WAY IT'S REAL LIFE AND NOW WE HAVE TO PAY DONT CALL IT THE END BROKEN WAY TO BE BEAT DOWN AGAIN BY HIDDEN ENEMY CANT GO BACK ------------------------- This song is about the strange modern era we have been thrust into. I wrote it before the pandemic except for I think the lyrics in the bridge. "It's a shame that things had to go this way, its real life and now we have to pay...". The lyric "I wrote this as a fiction like a spell coming true." Is in reference to my story "Children of Isis - Welcome to Mainframe 6" which is set in a post pandemic world. https://pastebin.com/nGkWsD4Y Although at the time I must have been referring to the world becoming more dystopian and tech obsessed, it turns out I was right about the idea of a virus being used to control the global population. Something I thought was probably far fetched for a long time but made a good story. This track has a 90s alt-rock feel to some of it which is part of the overall metaphor and message that we wont go back to how things were and can only FFWD. I'm glad that you reading this right now have stumbled upon my music and have decided to remain updated on my forthcoming works. I will continue to put up tracks from my **Dragon Emperor** project when I feel they are "ready." However as I am releasing them track by track I have yet to assess the complete work as a whole and when I do, I plan to get the album professionally mastered using rack and valve gear, I'm already using as much valve equipment as I can and want get more of that analog warmth. I will also probably make minor OCD adjustments to certain parts and mixing of the tunes. So yeah turn it up LOUD and keep the FAITH!
