マトリックスに生まれて

Wake up.

Dress up.

Show up.

Reset.

Seven sharp, the same sunrise

Coffee black and coded eyes

Take the train, repeat the ride

Smile on cue and step inside

Same old jokes, the same old names

Same small talk, the same small games

Clock me in, then count my pay

Pay the bills and fade away

Something skips inside the scene

Something cracks behind the screen

Every face feels pre-arranged

Every day resets unchanged

We were born in the Matrix

We were made to behave

In our perfect little sandbox

In our perfect little cage

Is there another world out there?

Was any of this real?

Are we really happy out there—

Or would you rather stay with me?

We were born in the Matrix

We were raised on the lies

And the only thing that feels real

Is the sadness in our eyes

Boss says, “Good,” I nod on time

Friends send hearts in perfect lines

Mother calls, I say I’m fine

Every answer pre-designed

Swipe the feed and buy the dream

Neon love across the screen

Eat, consume, perform, pretend

Charge me up and start again

Something slips behind the scene

Static crawling through the screen

Every word feels copied twice

Every smile has the same price

We were born in the Matrix

We were made to behave

In our perfect little sandbox

In our perfect little cage

Is there another world out there?

Was any of this real?

Are we really happy out there—

Or would you rather stay with me?

Can you hear me through the glass?

Can you make this moment last?

Make me yours, but make me real

Show me something I can feel

We were born in the Matrix

We were made to behave

In our perfect little sandbox

In our perfect little cage

Maybe there’s a world out there

Maybe none of this was real

But if everything is scripted—

Why does loving you still feel real?

We were born in the Matrix

We were raised on the lies

And the only thing that feels real

Is the sadness in our eyes

Wake up.

Dress up.

Show up.

Reset.
