Story Behind The Song

"Are You Satisfied" is a bold, reflective protest anthem that tackles modern-day materialism, corruption, and emotional detachment in a world driven by greed. Written in raw honesty, the song is a direct callout to the powers that be--questioning the motives behind wealth, political games, and societal numbness. Michael Kumar's lyrics unfold in three powerful acts: Verse 1 begins introspectively, calling the listener to examine their life choices and the illusions we often chase -- pride, wealth, and surface-level success. Verse 2 zooms out into social commentary, revealing the injustice of a system that prioritizes money over humanity. Verse 3 is the climax -- a furious outcry against manipulation, war, and spiritual decay, ending in a chilling line: "You'll be burning in your self-inflicted flames." This isn't just a song -- it's a warning, a mirror, and a cry for change. Inspired by real frustrations and conversations happening worldwide, "Are You Satisfied" aims to awaken awareness in every listener brave

Lyrics

Are You Satisfied With Yourself?

Verse 1



Control the life you Lead
Take these words and make sure you heed
All the Money, and all the pride

That clouds our human eyes
I'll make you realise this time
This has been playing on my mind

And there's nothing I can do
Except sing this song for you

Chorus 1



Are you Satisfied with yourself? x 2



Verse 2



If we raised our arms in grief

We can surely make them believe

That there's more needy people than us
But they don't want to hear it from me
They just care about their stupid money

And their cheap plastic honeys
They wear their business suits
With their questions, they're the roots

Chorus 2


Are you Satisfied with yourself x4



Verse 3



They even try to hide

Separate the truth from lies
But there's no fooling me
I know the truth behind money

Use your weapons of mass destruction

Try to fight a voice of a generation
Now you have yourselves to blame

You'll be, burning in your self inflicted flames

Chorus 3

Are You Satisfied with yourself x 4
