BEAT THE MATRIX

[Intro]
Wake up…
Same alarm, same room, same day.
They tell you what to chase, what to want, what to say.
But what if life was meant for more than this?
What if we could choose our own way?
[Verse 1]
Wake up in the morning, gotta run to the clock,
Everybody chasing money, everybody chasing a spot.
Go to school, get a job, pay the bills, then repeat,
Same road, same cycle, same rhythm in the streets.
They tell you, “This is life, you just gotta accept it,”
But I got questions and I'm tired of neglecting.
Who made the rules? Who decided the direction?
Why we scared to dream outside their expectations?
Everybody looking down at a screen in their hand,
Trying to follow somebody else's version of a plan.
But I don't wanna live just surviving every day,
I wanna wake up knowing I chose my own way.
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe the Matrix isn't walls around me,
Maybe it's the thoughts that keep my mind from being free.
If I can see it, I can question what they say,
And if I can question, I can find another way.
[Chorus]
Break the Matrix, wake up, open your eyes,
Don't let somebody else design your life.
They can build the road, but you choose where it goes,
You can change your story, you can write your own.
Break the Matrix, don't become what they expect,
Don't let fear put a chain around your neck.
You were born with a mind, so use it, don't hide it,
Life is yours—don't let the world decide it.
[Verse 2]
I'm not saying run away, I'm saying think,
Don't follow every voice just because it says “believe.”
Question the system, question yourself too,
Find what really matters, find what you wanna do.
'Cause freedom ain't pretending that you don't need nobody,
Freedom is making choices that you know are your own.
You can study, you can work, you can build your career,
Just don't let somebody else tell you what you should fear.
Maybe your path ain't the path they planned,
Maybe your dream won't fit inside their hands.
That's okay—let them talk, let them doubt, let them stare,
You don't need everybody's permission to get there.
[Bridge]
One day we're gonna look back and say,
“I didn't waste my life just living the same day.”
No more sleeping through the moment,
No more waiting for permission.
Open up your mind,
Make your own decision.
[Final Chorus]
Break the Matrix, wake up, open your eyes,
Don't let somebody else design your life.
They can build the road, but you choose where it goes,
You can change your story, you can write your own.
Break the Matrix, even if you're standing alone,
Build something real, make the vision your own.
The world might have a system, but your mind is still free—
Don't spend your whole life being who they told you to be.
[Outro]
Wake up.
Question.
Choose.
Build.
Live.
That's how you break the Matrix.
