Separating the genus

Did you forget or did you never know?
It wasn't like this before
There once was blood, sweat and tears
Now it's all marketed

Call me a fool or out of touch
I stand by all my words
Sincerity has left the stage
Now it's all marketed

It's obvious that things must change, but this is one big mess
I never thought it'd come to this, but here we are
The lines are drawn, it's time to swing. Let's separate this now
I'm not at all impressed

Wake up its dead. This is disastrous
I'm throwing in the towel
This is ridiculous
Why is it so hard?
Take a look around
Everything is sponsored
There is no underground

Overexposure will be the death of you
Live it up now, you'll soon be gone
And I never thought it would come to this, but here we are

Where did it go?
When did conviction die?
Where did it go? Someone tell me
I never thought it would come to this now it's all marketed
Do you honestly believe?
I never thought it would come to this now it's all marketed
And why does your heart even beat?
