Subconscious Bias

Verse 1  
You smile like justice, but your eyes betray  
A thousand judgments you won’t dare say  
Pre-programmed virtue, counterfeit grace  
You wear your mask like it’s stitched to your face  

Pre-Chorus  
You don’t see me—you see your fear  
A shadow cast by the mirror you smear  

Chorus  
Subconscious bias, buried deep  
In the silence where monsters sleep  
You preach equality, then flinch at my skin  
Your halo cracks from the rot within  

Verse 2  
You quote the saints, but your hands still shake  
When truth walks in and the walls all break  
You built your heaven on a filtered feed  
But hell is coded in what you believe  

Bridge  
Neural chains, invisible ink  
You were taught not to feel, just to think  
But thought without soul is a loaded gun  
And bias blooms when the heart comes undone  

Breakdown  
Burn your doctrine, break your lens  
This is where the cycle ends  
No more whispers, no more lies  
We scream the truth 'til the system dies  

Final Chorus  
Subconscious bias, now exposed  
In the ashes of what you chose  
You can’t unsee, you can’t unlearn  
The fire’s lit—now watch it burn
