Dystopian Blues

[Verse] World Economic Forum, plotting schemes in the background, 15-minute cities, choke points in a ghost town, Skyscrapers pierce the blue, shadows cast long, Limited growth, dark future, canary in the coal mine song. [Chorus] Dark times ahead, we trapped in the net, Pieces moving, lives maneuvered, futures set, Reset the clock, but can’t reset regret, Dystopian blues, world leaders in debt. [Verse 2] Look up in the skyline, towers blockin’ the sun, People in boxes, no room for the run, Grassroots burnt out, concrete jungle grown cold, Freedom restricted, billionaires keepin’ hold. [Bridge] Global agenda, tighten up the ends, Systemic oppression, us lost in the trends, Corridors of power, we can’t comprehend, Pixels on a screen, but the story won’t bend. [Chorus] Dark times ahead, we trapped in the net, Pieces moving, lives maneuvered, futures set, Reset the clock, but can’t reset regret, Dystopian blues, world leaders in debt. [Verse 3] Friction in the fiction, inflation on the rise, Economic towers creakin’, hear the silent cries, Policy potholes, we caught in the snare, Liberty siphoned, behind walls they prepare.
