Lyrics:
Yo, they don’t care about the heart, it’s all about the math,  
Calculating moves, man, it’s savage in this path.  
Truth got tossed in the back, like an old broken toy,  
While the force flexes hard, ain't no love, just the ploy.  

History ain’t kind, read between the lines,  
Virtue was a ghost, man, buried in the vines.  
They reigned with iron fists, wisdom rolled in dust,  
Survivors know the trick, trust in force not the just.  

In any era, it’s a primal fight,  
Don’t be a cynic, be a surgeon in the night.  
Cut through the lies, let your vision ignite,  
Navigate the shadows, bring your truth to the light.  

Look closer at these creatures, they’re complex and raw,  
Driven by their hunger, not the mercy they saw.  
Desires like a beast, fear cuts just like a knife,  
Envy’s in the shadows, it’s the currency of life.  

So understand the game, don’t go blind on the scene,  
Morality’s a tool, but don’t make it routine.  
Governments be shackled by the chains of the past,  
But the rules still remain, though the players always cast.  

In any era, it’s a primal fight,  
Don’t be a cynic, be a surgeon in the night.  
Cut through the lies, let your vision ignite,  
Navigate the shadows, bring your truth to the light.  

It’s not a dreamscape, it’s a cold-hearted land,  
Where the hearts of the pure don’t necessarily stand.  
You wanna play the game? Then know how to survive,  
See the world as it is, that’s how you stay alive.  

So I’m hustling the truth, painting vivid and bold,  
No sugar on the pain, just the stories untold.  
The wisdom of the ages, learn from the ruthless fight,  
Keep your heart in the game, but hold your vision tight.  

In any era, it’s a primal fight,  
Don’t be a cynic, be a surgeon in the night.  
Cut through the lies, let your vision ignite,  
Navigate the shadows, bring your truth to the light.

Original idea for this song:
The world places little value on a pure heart; instead, it prioritizes precise calculations. People tend to follow power rather than the truth. If you take a close look at history, it doesn't celebrate the victory of virtue. Rather, it recounts the stories of those who realized that truth serves as a tool, not an end goal, and thus managed to endure. This understanding will keep you relevant in any time period. Avoid cynicism; instead, adopt the mindset of a surgeon! Do not dismiss morality, but refrain from relying on it as a means of control. View humanity as a complex, sometimes harsh, yet predictable being, motivated by desire, fear, envy, and self-interest. Recognizing this will help you understand that to thrive in this world, you must perceive it not as you wish it to be, but as it truly is.
