joshface - vox populi lyrics

[verse 1]
freedom of speech does not equate
to freedom of action from consequence
we should be busy building bridges
instead of burning them down and then jumping the fence
the greenest grass and the cleanest track
we’re calling you out; we’re pulling back the mask
where science fiction meets social fact
it’s echoing out; reverberating back

[chorus]
the fiction that you live within
is a façade and a lie
dogwhistle pleas that you’re “being oppressеd”
but the silver spoon digs a great dividе
hard to believe that you’re the victim
when you sleep on a bed of gold
you can buy the vox populi
but the virtues cannot be bought nor sold
the word of the people is the word of the god
and it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not
the word of the people is the word of the god
and it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not

[bridge]
welcome to the land of curated virtue
where everyone’s shown the most extreme of views
as long as it continues to please our sponsors
we can all eat from the frozen fruit
[verse 2]
it’s so easy to believe in magic
except in the form of self expression
you’ll deny what’s in front of your eyes
you may have wrote the book, but never learned the lesson
conjecture and hearsay, outrageous opinion
the highest of horses, the tallest of towers
losing the sight of the reason you fight
and such is the power of the algorithm

[chorus]
the fiction that you live within is a façade and a lie
dogwhistle pleas that you’re “being oppressed”
but the silver spoon digs a great divide
hard to believe that you’re the victim
when you sleep on a bed of gold
you can buy the vox populi
but the virtues cannot be bought nor sold
the word of the people is the word of the god
and it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not
the word of the people is the word of the god
and it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not

[break]
the word of the people is the word of the god
and it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not
the word of the people is the word of the god
and it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not
[chorus]
the fiction that you live within is a façade and a lie
dogwhistle pleas that you’re “being oppressed”
but the silver spoon digs a great divide
hard to believe that you’re the victim
when you sleep on a bed of gold
you can buy the vox populi
but the virtues cannot be bought nor sold
the word of the people is the word of the god
and it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not
the word of the people is the word of the god
