Do Not Look Down Lyrics - Koloss - Meshuggah

Strive, strive, surmount the obstacles 

Become the essence of your goals 

Hereditary dream 

Pray that you may attain that destiny 

Fall into the coveted line 

Where life is but a theme 

Of pretense in lustrous guise 

Claims and values 

Charts of means and status 

Plaques to show your strife 

Do your neighbour clones approve 

Picture perfect illustration 

Imitation of life 

Where the path is evened out 

All obstructions removed 

Great viable citizen 

Are you happy now? 

Then praise your God and bow 

Shimmering surface 

The gleam of blinding lies 

Become the product 

The thing you so desire 

To what length would you go to reach your goals? 

What mantra will you use to justify your means? 

Who will you betray to secure your dream? 

What sins will you commit to avoid your sins be seen? 

Do not look down 

Do not look down 

Or the abysmal beast of non-conformity 

Might stare some unpleasant truth 

Into your desensitized mind 

Shimmering surface 

The gleam of blinding lies 

Become the product 

The thing you so desire
