Momentum

With egos swelled, our minds are spent
So fixed on our entitlements
Yet we deserve nothing after all
An imminent system collapse
We’ve reached a point of no turning back
We can’t keep on pretending nothing’s wrong
Nothing can stop our momentum
The self-inflictions we’ve endured
But we can’t stop begging for more
Oscillate between a rise and fall
The forces of a thousand years
We’ll close our eyes and disappear
Constructing myths to make sense of it all
