The Matrix Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Baby love, baby child, you're gonna die
All your friends, all the flowers, gonna die
So, why you so shy? Why you so shutoff?
You're running out of time
I want you to fly, I want you to pop off
Way up into the sky
Mama always said, "You got to find yourself a mantra"
[Chorus]
(Fuck no) To living in the basement
(Fuck no) To my one sweet life squeezed tight in the vice grip
(Fuck no) To the 9-5 suicide, bleeding like a stuck pig
(Fuck no, fuck no) Fuck no to living in the matrix
[Verse 2]
I forget all the time I'm gonna die
But then again, I'm divine, nobody dies
So, why am I so stressed? Why am I so depressed?
I'm running out of time
Mama always said, "You got to find yourself a mantra"
[Chorus]
(Fuck no) To living in the basement
(Fuck no) To my one sweet life squeezed tight in the vice grip
(Fuck no) To the 9-5 suicide, bleeding like a stuck pig
(Fuck no, fuck no) Fuck no to living in the matrix
[Bridge]
My mama always said, "You gotta find yourself a mantra"
Buddha said, Voodoo said, Guru said, Rumi said
All the Dalai Lamas, all the snake charmers
"You gotta get cosmic, gotta kiss God"
But papa always said, "Gotta find yourself a job"
But mama said, "Nah, gotta find yourself a mantra"
[Chorus]
(Fuck no) To living in the basement
(Fuck no) To my one sweet life squeezed tight in the vice grip
(Fuck no) To the 9-5 suicide, bleeding like a stuck pig
(Fuck no, fuck no) Fuck no to living in the matrix
[Outro]
(Fuck no; baby love, baby child) Fuck no to living in the matrix
(Fuck no; baby love, baby child) Fuck no to my one sweet life squeezed tight in the vice grip
(Fuck no; baby love, baby child) And to the 9-5 suicide, bleeding like a stuck pig
(Fuck no, fuck no; baby love, baby child) Fuck no to living in the matrix

What have the artists said about the song?
Ryan Guldemond:
Death and grief rooted themselves in these songs, but not morosely. It’s used more as a reference point for how to live more fully and presently. Life is fleeting, therefore it’s precious, and death is the most effective way I know to frame this miracle of living.

What did Mother Mother say about "The Matrix"?
Ryan Guldemond:
This is less about people being trapped in a job, and more about being trapped in a frame of mind that is limiting you and holding you back from tapping your potential or raising your frequency and your state of inspiration. Like, we all have to work, and it’s fairly idealistic to s...
