00:01In the spotlight
00:08They shine so bright
00:12But shadows whisper
00:17In the dead of night
00:37They chase the lights, the gold, the fame
00:41Shine on the line, play the game
00:44Move to the city, chase the dream
00:49Producers, stars, all on the team
00:51It looks so normal, the parties, the glow
00:54The hits keep dropping, the money flows
00:58But something's off in the deals they make
01:01A quiet clause that seals your fate
01:05They say it's business, just standard stuff
01:08Keep it secular, never enough
01:13God is fine, but one name's crossed
01:16The power in it makes them lost
01:21Who's controlling them?
01:23Pulling every string
01:24Hiding in their contracts
01:26Silence in the king
01:28They see the symbols, the inverted signs
01:31But call it art
01:33Ignore the lines
01:34The truth is rising
01:36Can't hold it back
01:38The name they fear is the heart attack
01:42Jesus, Jesus
01:44Breaking every chain
01:45The industry secret
01:47Driving them insane
01:56Hardest whisper stories
01:58Late at night
01:59Almost signed it
02:01Saw the light
02:03A friend flips pages stop right there
02:06That forbidden word hangs in the air
02:09No mention allowed
02:10Oh the deal is gone
02:12Consequences hit like a loaded gun
02:16They push the flesh
02:17The chaos
02:18The vice
02:19Wow, the spirit's name comes with a price
02:23It seems so normal
02:25The videos flash
02:26The hand signs
02:28The rituals in a flash
02:30But connect the dots
02:32From the deals to the stage
02:34A battle raging hidden in the cage
02:37People cheer the shows
02:40The fame, the grind
02:41Never question why
02:43The truth is blind
02:45From studios to
02:47The biggest names
02:49The same old rules
02:51And their games
02:52Chasing statues
02:53Selling pieces of soul
02:55For the glitter, the power, the control
02:59The one name
03:01The one name
03:01Shatters
03:04The whole charade
03:06Who's controlling their availest thing
03:10Contracts of silence
03:11The original sin
03:13They flood the airwaves
03:15With everything but the name above all
03:18The one they call
03:21Jesus, Jesus
03:22Echoed through the night
03:24Exposing the darkness
03:25Igniting the fight
03:27The truth is hard
03:29No turning away
03:31The industry's empire
03:33Starts to fray
03:35Now you see it
03:36Clear as day
03:37The hidden walls
03:39When the songs they play
03:41Rise up, speak it
03:43Break the hole
03:44The name they fear is worth
03:47More than gold
03:49Who's controlling them?
03:50Not anymore
03:52The revelations
