Adaptation Is Surrender (pell)

The preview is the stem wet. Also uploaded is the raw recording.
I don’t want to adapt
I don’t agree with your facts
Your respect for the truth
is too conveniently lax
I don’t want it to be so
that everything we see
has at least two truths
one for you and one for me
I won’t be a subscriber
to things as they are
I don’t want a camera in my house
and I can drive my own damn car
I don’t like the new morality
where lies are the norm
Not every new snowfall
constitutes a storm
Which I guess makes me a weirdo
or maybe I’m just old
or maybe just someone
with some standards to uphold
And things get weirder every day
We’re asked to buy what once was strange
Believe no matter what they say
Accept the things you cannot change
Adaptation is surrender now
more than compromise
ever since the idiocracy
has been legitimized
I don’t want to adapt
