Breaking the Chains
[Intro]
Life no spectator sport...
No...
If you never move,
nothing forms.
[Verse]
They gave the people bread and circuses,
Bright lights to distract the soul.
Everybody staring at the stage now,
While nobody learning self-control.
Screens flashing in the darkness,
Voices fighting for the crown.
But a man who never plants a seed
Can't complain when nothing grows around.
[Pre-Chorus]
Participation...
That the missing key.
The field don't shape itself
Through passive frequency.
[Chorus]
Life no spectator sport.No...
You gotta stand inside the rhythm
If you wanna feel the force.
Life no spectator sport.No...
Every living thing forming
Through participation at the source.
[Verse]
A thousand voices screaming loudly,
But silence built the tree.
The strongest roots grow underground
Long before the world can see.
Everybody waiting for a saviour,
Watching from the side.
But the kingdom never manifests
Without the people stepping inside.
[Bridge]
You can't outsource awakening.
Can't purchase sovereignty.
No revolution ever started
Inside dependency.
[Chorus]
Life no spectator sport.No...
The lion don't awaken
Till the field begins to form.
Life no spectator sport.No..
.Every soul a living signal
Either sleeping or reborn.
[Outro]
Bread and circuses...
Kept the people entertained.
But participation...
That what break the chains.
Oh yeah
that's what breaks the chains.
Sing it with me.
That's what breaks the chains...
