Between the truth and what we know
A force is trying to make us blind, yeah
Dreaming 'bout power and control
Manipulating all mankind
Behind the curtains stand the kings
Cursed by the oath they swore
Alterior motive
The words we never speak
The names of traitors
Carved into our spines
Alterior motive
Eternally, we seek
For answers
From the same corrupted minds
Children brought into this world
Are guided by the books of light, yeah
A future mapped out in advance
Using freedom as disguise
Behind the curtains stand the gods
Prepare for the final call
Alterior motive
The words we never speak
The names of traitors
Carved into our spines
Alterior motive
Eternally, we seek
For answers
From the same corrupted minds
Corrupted minds, yeah
Alterior! Motive!
Alterior! Motive!
Alterior! Motive!
Alterior! Motive!
Alterior motive
The words we never speak
The names of traitors
Carved into our spines
Alterior motive
Eternally, we seek
For answers
From the same corrupted minds
Alterior motive
The words we never speak
The names of traitors
Carved into our spines
Alterior motive
Eternally, we seek
For answers
From the same corrupted minds
Corrupted minds!
