Lyrics: Gregory Holgate
Music: Gregory Holgate
Eventually all walls meet demolition
So Wall Street
Had to keep the tradition
Their financial systems resigned to ignition
And out of the ashes,we have arisen
An empire is forged in the fire of ambition
In business there isn't the time for attrition
Invest to suppress
Then ingest competition
Then each acquisition
Is new ammunation
When governments crumble and fall to the floor
That was paved with the graves
Of a corporate war
A fundament funded in blood just to shore
A foundation for founding our covenant
Born of a need for control of societal entropy
Enterprise at the price of your indemnity
Chart out the course
And of course you were meant to be
Bend to the will
Of a corporate entity
Arasaka Security
You're in safe hands
We're the light in your screens
We're the lead in your veins
Then you wake from your dreams
So we can sell them again
In the light we distract
With the shiny and new
So you're blind to the fact
That the product is you
So let your
!BRAIN DANCE!
And replay the dream
BUT
Don't drown in the data stream
'Cause we see where you are
And we see where you go
'Cause we know what you own
And we own what you know
From the top of all our towers
The corridors of power clearly need rewiring
Arasaka saw the spark
And then embarked upon the path
To turn that spark to the lightning
There's no autonomous megalopolis
So populous or prosperous you could reside in
And every citizen that's living in this city
Is a digit on the charts we're climing
Political systems are too inefficient
They split like the atom
And burned in the fission
Now every department
And every decision
Defer to the herds of our corporate divisions
If you don't remember the ballot you cast
It's printed on every receipt you were passed
Each time you selected
Our products and services
We were elected
In each of your purchases
What's left to do
When you've got the monopoly?
Turn the consumer into the commodity
It isn't hard where you've hardware neurology
Honestly.Do read the company policy
Take information and trade it for wealth
You pay it in each augmentation we sell
It's easy to cut out the middle man
When he's cut out most of himself
Arasaka Finance
Investing in you future
We're the light in your screens
We're the lead in your veins
Then you wake from your dreams
So we can sell them again
In the light we distract
With the shiny and new
So you're blind to the fact
That the product is you
So let your
!!BRAIN DANCE!!
And replay the dream
BUT
Don't drown in the data stream
'Cause we see where you are
And we see where you go
'Cause we know what you own
And we own what you know
All that you say on the net we composite
To maps that go straight
From you head to you pocket
Complain if you want
You're still making deposits of data
Each day you log on is a profit
Society currently lists electronic
So isn't conducting resistance ironic?
We're plenty of skeletons
Locked in your closets
But yours are assembled
From old-stock hydraulics
So lucky we know just the pieces you need
All plucked from you social media feeds
The places you go
And the posts that you read
All snatched for a new algorithm to feed
Now holding our gold isn't par for the brand
Our silver is sat in the palm of you hand
Quit whining and sign
On the line in the sand
The supply does not
Get to make the demands

We're the light in your screens

!!!BRAIN DANCE!!!
And replay the dream
BUT
Don't drown in the data stream
'Cause we see where you are
And we see where you go
'Cause we know what you own
And we own what you know
When guiding the hand of the market
If it's holding a cheque or a gun
The fingers go deep in you pockets
And you can live under the thumb
You seem so surprised
What did you expect?
We' re thinking outside
Of that box that you checked
The terms were presented in full to inspect
You scrolled to the end
Just to get to 'accept'
Arasaka would like to know your location
Arasaka would like to know your location
Arasaka would like to know your location
Arasaka would like to know your location
