Fear Factory – Powershifter Lyrics

Rock

Feared your control and excessive greed
Abuse of your power disgraced me
You want war, you got war
More than you bargained for

I damn you and leave defiantly
Cut you out and take it all with me
You want war, you got war
More than you bargained for

Always question authority
Control my own destiny
Forcing change, breaking free
From the gears of the machine

Changing my world so I can live
Execution powershift
Changing my world so I can live
Execution powershift
Powershift, powershift
Powershifter

Break

I will forge my place in this time
Contention is sharply refined
I will expose you and force your demise
To take control of what is truly mine

Changing my world so I can live
Changing my world so I can live

Always question authority
Control my own destiny
Forcing change, breaking free
From the gears of the machine

Changing my world so I can live
Execution powershift
Changing my world so I can live
Execution powershift
Powershift, powershift
Powershifter

    Official comment from Burton C. Bell: “Change is an inevitable course in nature and humanity. This world has seen much change as of late, and it is true globally, nationally, and personally. This is a true story of a personal struggle against a controlling and ineffectual organization. There is always a choice, and the choice is never easy.”
