Roboturner Lyrics
Crush us
Over and over again
The years have come to this
An improper art form
Faking our own thoughts and sounds
Robots crush
Death of human-music
Bright lights fill the sky
Track us through our fields of money
The old days seem shit and primitive
Abduction
Control
You write for me
Oh, master
Master of the machines
Take this shit and make it gold
Make my face sparkle with fame
Master of the machines
Fuck them hard and neglect their thoughts
They will never see us coming
No more human voice
No more human actions
Imperfect fucks stand in the dark
Crush us
Over and over again
The years have come to this
An improper art form
Faking our own thoughts and sounds
Robots crush
Death of human-music
Counteract the idea of control
Human emotion can only produce the thoughtful
Finally discovering the idea of perfect harmony
This is the day we finally make beautiful notes again
But will we ever realize
A situation so far dead
Make this a war
Blood fills the sky
Drop the deadly dive-bomb
The end of this outside life
We will find art again
Over and over again
The years have come to this
An improper art form
Faking our own thoughts and sounds
Robots crush
Death of human-music
Track us through our fields of money
The old days seem shit and primitive
Abduction
Control
You write for me
Oh, master
Take this shit and make it gold
Make my face sparkle with fame
Master of the machines
Fuck them hard and neglect their thoughts
They will never see us coming
No more human actions
Imperfect fucks stand in the dark
Over and over again
The years have come to this
An improper art form
Faking our own thoughts and sounds
Robots crush
Death of human-music
Human emotion can only produce the thoughtful
Finally discovering the idea of perfect harmony
This is the day we finally make beautiful notes again
But will we ever realize
A situation so far dead
Make this a war
Blood fills the sky
Drop the deadly dive-bomb
The end of this outside life

Robotic Tina Turner.
Those three words made me LMAO. You made my day.

..seems to be about how the process of making music is being taken over by machines...
I love the loud scream at the beginning, especially straight after listening to the slow, soothing instrumental Breath In, Breathe Out...
But yeah, for the meaning I think it's about man made machines/robots basically taking over the human species.
I take this in two ways:
1) It could be just in his fanatical mind that there is someone greater than him forcing him to write this, and it's not what he is really feeling, but it's powerful.
2) I'm assuming he wrote this song after they signed to Victory Records, who are renowned for their forcefulness and focus on sales rather than the music (especially due to their recent controversey). Possibly, VR was pressuring BTBAM to write about certain things, etc. and they decided to write a song about the mainstream and popular labels and how it basically turns the songwriters into little robots/computers, writing whatever is put into them. Or something to that extent.
I think you understand what I mean.
I think your second choice is a lot closer Jaden.
I think another reason is that every mainstream bands sounds exactly like eachother and are doing the same exact style, making them robots.
Also, how voices have been changed so much so a good looking person that sings like crap can be made tolerable.
have you ever notice how unique the rythm is in there music, they are no slave to patterns.
most mainstream band and fucking rap and pop is mostly generated by machine, by producers they create shit but their dumb ass fans take it as gold.
Damn straight Archsoul is god. thats exactly what i was going to put.
But i think Roboturner is about music haha or at least robots takin over the world.
Mmm, I think they are saying we are turning into a society of brutality loving robots, but that art will rise again alongside the deeper parts of what it means to be human.
But at the same time the music hypothesis is a really really good one.
the two hypotheses could be correct - i.e. the robotic humanity manifesting itself in music.
Crush us over and over again...
