‘Blackout’ is a critical reminder to society that we are the key stakeholders, but only through unity and self-awareness can we deploy that power against those wanting to oppress us.

[Verse 1]
I see you in the flame
Burning down from a debt to repay
I see them entertained
They laugh cause they don't have a warning
[Pre-Chorus]
Medicated and you don't even know it
So sedated that you think you're in love with
A reality that has been deeply distorted
It's taking its toll
[Chorus]
We're bringing upon the blackout
Shutting it down and all else
Won't you come on and play now?
It's time to unleash your rage
In the dark, we become the judge and jury
Isn't it so rewarding?
To make them feel all your pain in the blackout
[Verse 2]
Hold up now, cut the linе
Just see how long you feel divine
We see you, this is war
Watch your empirе fall to the floor
[Pre-Chorus]
Medicated and you don't even know it
So sedated that you think you're in love with
A reality that has been deeply distorted
It's taking its toll
[Chorus]
We're bringing upon the blackout
Shutting it down and all else
Won't you come on and play now?
It's time to unleash your rage
In the dark, we become the judge and jury
Isn't it so rewarding?
To make them feel all your pain in the blackout
[Bridge]
"Fellow citizens, we apologize for this broadcast interruption. We are CANTERVICE and we have a message for you."
"We have bore witness to the erosion of privacy and human rights, whilst simultaneously being force-fed dichotomy to keep us distracted from the truth. The truth, that we are all slaves to a system that abuses our very human nature for financial and political gain. Citizens, the time has come for their impunity to end. This is the uprising."
[Breakdown]
Transcended, feel the shift?
We brought you down with a flip of a switch
We don't forgive and we'll never forget
At the end of your wits, don't expect us to spare you
[Chorus]
We're bringing upon the blackout
Shutting it down and all else
Won't you come on and play now?
It's time to unleash your rage
In the dark, we become the judge and jury
Isn't it so rewarding?
To make them feel all your pain in the blackout
[Outro]
Transcended, feel the shift?
We brought you down with a flip of a switch
We don't forgive and we'll never forget
In the dark, we become the judge and jury
Isn't it so rewarding?
To make them feel all your pain in the blackout
