[Verse 1: Elias Soriano]
From the second that it came to life, everything seemed fine
Things got easy enough for the masses
But the rest of us lay claim to the same old dangerous ways
Crossin' stars, drivin' expensive cars
Plannin' our own parades
Champagne wishes, golden dishes
People linin' up just to scream your name
People livin' up to a standard made
People givin' up just to give the blame
To the same damn people that are givin' up
I say the same to people that are livin' up
It's safe to say that I'm not giving it a second thought
Just to waste it on a pivotal moment that I'm givin' up
Draw back the hammer, and I'm swingin' it up
And bringin' it down
Taking it over my shoulder as high as I can
And then bringin' it down
Checkin' for anything left
And if I see breath, I'm bringin' it down
All back-to-back, and then I'm packin' up
Not lookin' for a handout, gonna be out the door
And that's how it's gonna pan out
[Pre-Chorus: Elias Soriano]
And you'll watch your bellies go hollow
When you have no one to follow
[Chorus 1: Elias Soriano]
The dividing occupation of…
The binding separation of…
This generation of idiots (Generation Idiot, Generation Idiot)
[Verse 2: Elias Soriano, Rasheed Thomas, Rasheed with B.C. Kochmit]
There wasn't a better idea left
To write the righteous left among the rest of us (Goddamn)
That was a lot to be said
I'm gonna put this to bed until it never wakes again
There isn't a better addiction than lettin' it out
Without a filter attached to the mouth
I got ninety-nine-thousand problems (With their very own problems)
Once upon a time, people talked to people, people didn't text
What's comin' next? Just food and sex
Sleep, repeat, (Food and sex)
Follow me, three simple steps
You want it so damn easy, want handed it to you on a golden plate
(While the state of the world goes Watergate)
And Generation Idiot accumulates
[Pre-Chorus: Elias Soriano]
And you'll watch your bellies go hollow
When you have no one to follow
[Chorus 2: Elias Soriano]
The dividing occupation of…
The binding separation of…
This generation of idiots (Generation Idiot, Generation Idiot)
[Guitar Solo: BC Kochmit]
[Chorus 3: Elias Soriano]
The dividing occupation of…
The binding separation of…
This generation of idiots (Generation Idiot, Generation Idiot) (You have no one to follow)
The dividing occupation of… (You have no one to follow)
The binding separation of… (You have no one to follow)
(No one to follow, no one to follow) This generation of idiots (Generation Idiot, Generation Idiot)
[Outro: Elias Soriano]
You have no one to follow
Idiot (Generation Idiot, Generation Idiot)
You have no one to follow
