I'm not the one who can make the world how I see fit today
I'm not the one who can make bullets stop right on a dime
But now I deal with all the troubles that are in the real world
I carry on and never once have even questioned why

Yeah
I'm in the Matrix
But the horrible world is on my shoulders
Yeah
I'm in the Matrix
But the battles have made our known world over

I'm not the one who can turn the homeless into agents that fight
I'm not the one who can jump from roof to roof whenever I please
Still I grow and then the problems are too much for me
I only want my chicken to taste like real chicken

Yeah
I'm in the Matrix
But the horrible world is on my shoulders
Yeah
I'm in the Matrix
But the battles have made our known world over

I'm not the one who made the androids that destroyed the whole world
I'm not the one who walks around saying 'There is no Spoon'
I'm not the one who can turn the walls into zeros and ones
I'm not the one because I know Kung Fu and still cant fight

And even if I try and not become so overwhelmed
And if I make doom and destruction come to all of my friends
I'll just unplug them all and the whole ship will be destroyed
Somehow, I'll live in a great big house and never wonder why!
