The lyrics in the song are narrated by the band's vocalist Dustin Bates. It provides a summary of what has happened to humanity between now and 2049, which is when the events of Divisions take place. In this world, NEW WEST'S Brain Machine Interface, also known as BMI, has captivated the world and many people and bought into it. The BMI can download your memories and, in turn, make a personalized world for you to relive your memories. The addictive quality of the BMI is much more powerful than nicotine.
However, others who did not buy into the BMI have a different opinion on it; it's a trap, a prison, a cell. Anyone infatuated with the BMI has lost their ability to think for themselves in the real world. The narrator comes to the realization that the real world offers much more than the BMI, and embarks on a journey to discover the truth about the NEW WEST.
