Imitation Lyrics by Atomic Guava

Peasants of the Future

2022

[Intro]
Imitate imitate imitation
Imitate imitate imitation
Imitate imitate imitation
Imitate imitate imitation

[Hook]
Art imitates life imitates fools imitate you imitate me
Art imitates life imitates fools imitate you imitate me
Art imitates life imitates fools imitate you imitate me
Art imitates life imitates fools imitate you imitate me
Art imitates life imitates fools imitate you imitate me
Art imitates life imitates fools imitate you imitatе me
Art imitates life imitatеs fools imitate you imitate me
Art imitates life imitates fools imitate you imitate me

[Verse]
Their ears are on the walls like flies
For hours, deliberate - wanton degenerates
Their own center of their universe
Orbit, dilapidate, A.I. without a brain
Beneath that bold exterior
Dead socket eyes, inferior (blink)
Like a puppet on a string
Make them dance for me

[Chorus]
Get thee behind me
For what you want cannot be taught
By automaton machines
(Underneath I am) Wired enough to survive
Bled enough to be called a life
Worth making counterfeits to bind me
An idol with a virus for a heart

[Hook]
Art imitates life imitates fools imitate you imitate me
Art imitates life imitates fools imitate you imitate me
Art imitates life imitates fools imitate you imitate me
Art imitates life imitates fools imitate you imitate me

[Bridge]
I try to make something new with my own two hands
You twist it and share your bullshit with your foolish friends
Life coddled you like a bitch and taught you to whine for scraps
You belong on your knees - you look better like that
You can ask how I do it
You can worship my pain and desire it
You can copy my walk
Every sway in my spinal alignment
Once I offered me freely to anyone
Desperate for someone to hear me
Now they fall in my footsteps
My incompetent copies
You can rule a dimension
Even ravage its roots unaware
But the power you’re missing
(Is knowing to look when it’s there)
Boo!

[Pre-Chorus]
Break me from the inside
Let me know if you find
What sets my life apart

[Chorus]
From those who stand behind me
For what you want cannot be taught
By automaton machines
(Underneath I am) Wired enough to survive
Bled enough to be called a life
Worth making counterfeits to bind me
An idol with a virus for a heart

[Outro]
Art imitates life imitates fools imitate you imitate me
I imitates life imitates fools imitate-mitate-a-itate...
