This song is a reckoning with those that use their influence to control the mainstream narrative, telling the masses everything will be fine; they lull us in with their ruse promising tranquility, while it is plain for all to see that a storm is coming.

All the while not being accountable for their actions.

When caught in their lies, they act all surprised and their Teflon coat deflects the blame to the next bastard in line.

In the end, their control is just a delusion, they are victim of their own certainty and unable to question what they think to be true, hence not being able to ever grow.

In the end, the tempest will be blameless, and no feeble word or atonement will stop it.
