Good Robot

Lyrics

[Hook] I'm just tryna be a good robot Keep my head down and do what I gotta do Money is god, I serve the economy I must give thanks for my freedom to consume I'm just tryna be a good robot Keep my head down repenting in solitude Money is god, I worship the currency I must give thanks for my freedom to consume [Verse 1] So why do I choose to speak metaphorically When I could easily reap the rewards of conformity Caught up in these plastic distractions Shrink-wrapped luxuries, electronic contraptions We're all ultimately lost here on planet earth Cursed even before your mother's first contractions In childbirth submersed in the universe Born as a pawn of economic expansion Demonic in our actions Conceived in erotic interactions Cos for every action, an equal and opposite reaction We've become robotic in our passions and follow fashions Technological detachment This is evolution at a tangent See it clearly Investigate the chaos theory Overstand that everything is random [Hook] I'm just tryna be a good robot Keep my head down and do what I gotta do Money is god, I serve the economy I must give thanks for my freedom to consume I'm just tryna be a good robot Keep my head down repenting in solitude Money is god, I worship the currency I must give thanks for my freedom to consume [Verse 2] Why do I choose to dress and talk informally And disobey the rules and laws accordingly Caught up in this media typecasting Looking to the stars as the skies darken When the war's done I'll hang up my uniform And go tend to the roses in my back garden Until then I chase this vision of a unicorn Gin in the bottle and orange juice in the carton The poetry is death Dynamic opposites conflicting from new life to first breath Baby steps Children of the stardust now you're just tryna be a good robot We programmed the odds with the instinct Searching for happiness and material things You know the world is collapsing around you But you wanna act like you don't see a thing You're just tryna be a good robot Keep your head down and do what you gotta do Money is god, you serve the economy You must give thanks for your freedom to consume You're just tryna be a good robot Keep your head down repenting in solitude Money is god, you worship the currency You must give thanks for your freedom to consume
