We think, therefore we are

   
-    
"I'm a free man, not a number"    
words echoing in the dark    
once reality and anthem    
now just a dusty and worn out dream    
beg    
get down on your knees and beg    
lick the boots from your gilded cage    
how dare you...    
talk about biology    
or race    
or IQ    
pretending we are free    
when we cease to be useful, we will cease to be    
and we will never see it coming    
... because it's already here    
we have been shorn and herded, taught what to believe    
we are killed off at will by war and disease    
dined on by the elite    
how we argue with one another    
passionately believing....    
that we matter at all    
surveilled, curtailed, jailed, and blackmailed    
the culture of our pedigree    
death is the cure for our disease    
and we'll never see it coming    
as we're led to the slaughterhouse we're too intelligent to see
