Armoured in Pride

To face the problems of our reality

We should start fighting status quo

But the prevailing opinion

Is to abide one's time

We better uphold the illusion

That there are no consequences

No dilemma 

And no conflicts in our lives

All the thinking about solutions

Is impossible for the mind

And changing well-loved habits

Only proves to be too radical 

No one wants to feel remorse

It's so much easier to rejoice

And with power comes the luxury to reject

For ignorance is bliss   

We can't have contemptuous blathering

About what's to be done

We can't admit mental incompetence

For we can't stand any frailty

In our delusion of grandeur we think our system is too big to fail

We just close our eyes to the abysmal truths  

We are living up to high standards

And dying to our expectations  

To who do we repent when the end is hand

Are we not the gods who fucked it up

So we armour ourselves in pride

And in ignorance we will stride

The downfall is inevitable

We are extinction's advocates

Is it wise to fight for survival

When the world is better off without us  

We proclaim the fall of mankind

we are extinction's advocates
