Cult Of Rite Now

from Heartsick Harmony by Gadè

/

lyrics

No one would pay to make their life harder
Come a long way since the dark age of barter
Everything's cheaper and you'd think that was sweeter
But my thumb is still hovering
Credit recovering
From ceiling to carpet
To bathroom to door
I have more devices, more objects, more stuff
Than are physically useful - not really fruitful
Dark design patterns are leaving me poor

It's insane we're ok with it
We remain so enslaved to it
Plastic pillow to smother the earth
Addicted and conflicted
Hijacked my sense of self worth

I want it, I buy it
I'm docile, compliant
I lust for that lustre
Influencer? I'll trust ya
Dramatic, Emphatic
Trained consumer fanatic
Hyped up more than is good for me
Cult of rite now – my philosophy
I want it, I buy it
I'm docile, compliant
I lust for that lustre
Influencer? I'll trust ya
Dramatic, Emphatic
Trained consumer fanatic
Hyped up more than is good for me
Cult of rite now – my philosophy

Become more aware of the need to dethrone
Whims of shareholders – need for new growth
It'll only get harder, already non-starter
Scarce new pre-order – i'll throw it a bone
Now what was I saying? Important i'm sure
But my wishlist is calling
“Come hither, come spend”
Your siren song bidden
Lighthouse algorithm
Dopamine hits hide a pure rotten core

It's insane we're ok with it
We remain so enslaved to it
Plastic pillow to smother the earth
Addicted and conflicted
Hijacked my sense of self worth

I want it, I buy it
I'm docile, compliant
I lust for that lustre
Influencer? I'll trust ya
Dramatic, Emphatic
Trained consumer fanatic
Hyped up more than is good for me
Cult of rite now – my philosophy
I want it, I buy it
I'm docile, compliant
I lust for that lustre
Influencer? I'll trust ya
Dramatic, Emphatic
Trained consumer fanatic
Hyped up more than is good for me
Cult of rite now – my philosophy

Pissoirs for the white and bottles for the blue
The colour of your collar self evident as truth
Not for the donor of the dollar to decide
What rights are afforded and abuses you can hide

We could cycle and circle around market value
To measure a person – never thought of it, had you?
I wonder if somewhere there's documentation
Enshrining what freedoms empower a nation

Feels too late
Smells not right
Sealed our fate
Man's good night
Spent the last, grew too fast and it shows
Now we, by contrast, can recast our own role
Feels too late
Smells not right
Sealed our fate
Man's good night
Spent the last, grew too fast and it shows
Now we, by contrast, can recast our own role
Feels too late
Smells not right
Sealed our fate
Man's good night
Spent the last, grew too fast and it shows
Now we, by contrast, can recast our own role

It's insane we're ok with it
We remain so enslaved to it
Plastic pillow to smother the earth
Addicted and conflicted
Hijacked my sense of self worth

I want it, I buy it
I'm docile, compliant
I lust for that lustre
Influencer? I'll trust ya
Dramatic, Emphatic
Trained consumer fanatic
Hyped up more than is good for me
Cult of rite now – my philosophy

It's insane we're ok with it
We remain so enslaved to it
Plastic pillow to smother the earth
Addicted and conflicted
Hijacked my sense of self worth

I want it, I buy it
I'm docile, compliant
I lust for that lustre
Influencer? I'll trust ya
Dramatic, Emphatic
Trained consumer fanatic
Hyped up more than is good for me
Cult of rite now – my philosophy

Cult of rite now – my philosophy
Cult of rite now – my philosophy
Cult of rite now – my philosophy
I want it now!
