Out of the Matrix

Story Behind The Song

I felt there were great spiritual applications in "The Matrix" and was greatly inspired by it. The 2nd part of the triology though was a huge disappointment. The line from this song "I've got my eye on Zion" really doesn't work for the second movie. Zi

Lyrics

I've been checking you out for a long time
The problem's everywhere
You can feel it where you work
When you go to church
Marked by blank-eyed stares

Inside this godless matrix
They try to get you to settle for less

I'm keeping my eye on Zion
No one's keeping me in this mess
I got my eye on Zion
I'm not settling for less
(I've been checking you out for a long time)
I'm not settling for less

It's all around us
Even now in this very room
Something's wrong, you've known it all your life
Hunger for truth beckons you to leave
Allowed yourself to see painful reality

These manicured cities are just an illusion
Hiding the decay, hiding the mess

I'm keeping my eye on Zion
No one's keeping me in this mess
I got my eye on Zion
I'm not settling for less
(I've been checking you out for a long time)
I'm not settling for less

Gonna get to Zion
I'm not settling for less

Great vocals and harmonies, beautiful. Hard to hear some of the lyrics, but what I can hear sounds original

unique start lovely voice fresh sound

Very unique and well arranged and produced piece with a great air of mysticism about it and really good vocals.

AWESOME intro sound lol that was cool. be careful that those keys dont overpower your vocal

Wow. Has a distinct old Crosby Still & Nash feel.

unique song

loved the piano with the silky smooth vocals with it all sitting well in the mix and the bv's work really well
deep lyrics which I like and the whole instrumentation really suited what is actually a fairly unique sound overall
