i know i’m late with what i’m trying to fore say
i see we’re left alone with happy yesterday
but when someone else decides for us what isn’t free
is what we’ve got a destiny for you and me
controlled
controlled and despised
we're not the ones to live our own lives
won’t remain silent
until they close our eyes
are we free
is it reality
what we see
is it how it’s meant to be
one day you wake up
and open up your eyes
to realize that we’re
controlled
