Lyrics

(Verse 1) Second-hand human beings, conditioned from the start, Influence from all sides, it's like we play a part. From school to life, we echo what's been said, But are we truly living, or just repeating what's been fed? (Pre-Chorus) Propaganda, newspapers, magazines, the pulpit's voice, They shape our thoughts, leaving us little choice. To break free from this grip, to find our own truth, We must unravel the conditioning, let go of the youth. (Chorus) We're second-hand human beings, stuck in the cycle, Echoing words, living life in denial. But beneath the layers of influence and strife, There lies a truth, waiting to come to life. (Verse 2) The word 'motive' means to move, to push us along, But can we see beyond it, admit we may be wrong? Conditioned by culture, by society's sway, It's time to break free, to find our own way. (Pre-Chorus) When disturbance arises, when conflicts brew, That's when we see, our conditioning's true. Life becomes a battlefield, a constant fight, Without freedom from conditioning, we'll never see the light. (Chorus) We're second-hand human beings, trapped in our mind, Struggling against disturbance, feeling confined. But if we can break free, from this prison we've made, We'll find a truth, that cannot be swayed. (Bridge) It's time to inquire, why we're still confined, By conditioning's chains, that bind the mind. Without freedom, we're forever enslaved, But with awareness, a new path is paved. (Outro) So let's listen, let's consider, without resistance or fear, For truth awaits, when awareness is near. No more interpreting through our conditioned lens, Let's see things as they are, and break free from these ends.
