Lyrics

Hold back the tide of validity
See past unearned credibility
Unmask their veil of sincerity
And trust in your capabilities

I'd only be a pioneer if I went back in time
Where all the great ideas I heed were mistaken for mine

Think twice and test the acidity
Don't fall for dystopic imagery
Preserve your freedom to operate
And when you lie make sure you learn to lie convincingly

I'll never be a millionaire cos I don't have the time
To waste my life on chasing dreams when they're there all the time

Don't make yourself too comfortable
Don't think you're indestructible
Don't believe in everything you read
Don't act as if there's nothing else
The life you lead is under threat
Don't believe in everything you read

Take stock; what's fact? What's bigotry?
Don't take what's said so literally
Mistrust your growing complacency
Make sure you've got a contingency plan

You'll only be a pioneer if you don't toe the line
And see it from the other side
It was there all the time
