00:08They pull the strings from rooms without windows
00:16Smile for the cameras while the real ones stay hidden
00:34They hand out the crowns and the stages of gold
00:38Tell you who's chosen, who's bought and who's sold
00:42They write the scripts and they own every frame
00:45While the real ones sit quiet, never needing a name
00:49You chase the applause they decided you get
00:52While the ones who decide never break a sweat
00:56But the light they control is a carefully drawn lie
01:00And the thrones they pretend are just painted on sky
01:06We see through the curtains, we see past the show
01:10Those ones who stay faceless still think that we don't know
01:13No more kneeling in shadows that claim every stage
01:17We're burning the script and rewriting the age
01:21They thought they owned silence
01:24They thought they owned fame
01:27But the crowd just woke up
01:32And they're calling their names
01:42They crown the puppets and call them divine
01:45While the hands that move them stay out of the line
01:49They sell you the dream that they already sold
01:52And collect every soul before the story gets told
01:57But the mirror is cracking, the glass starts to fall
02:00And the ones in the dark hear the writing on the wall
02:04The light they control is a carefully drawn lie
02:07And the thrones they pretend are just painted on sky
02:13We see through the curtains, we see past the show
02:17The ones who stay faceless still think that we don't know
02:21No more kneeling in shadows that claim every stage
02:24We're burning the script and rewriting the age
02:28They thought they owned silence
02:31They thought they owned fame
02:34But the crowd just woke up
02:38And they're calling their name
02:53Oh, no, no, no
02:56You can keep the red carpets, the golden awards
03:00We don't need your permission to open the doors
03:03The real power was never the ones on the screen
03:07It was always the ones we were never allowed to see
03:13We see through the curtains, we see past the show
03:17The ones who stay faceless still think that we don't know
03:20No more kneeling in shadows to claim every stage
03:24We're burning the script and rewriting the age
03:27They thought they owned silence
03:30They thought they owned fame
03:34But the crowd just woke up
03:40And they're calling their name
03:43And they're calling their name
04:07And they're calling their name
04:11And they're calling their name
