progressive alternative rock acoustic solo music

This is me - my life in the form of music. Although my favorite type of music is progressive rock, I also liking writing solo acoustic songs, and have made some attempts at creating a few techno/industrial instrumental songs.

Story behind the song

One day after taking one of those ridiculous online IQ tests, I began to reflect on how we rely on testing so much to make decisions about our futures. Furthermore, who decided to allocate X amount of intelligence to us?

Lyrics

These measures of what we are supposedly born with,
Incidentally decide the fate of our futures,

Capacitated, limited, who decided?
Frustrated, aggrevated, and consummated. 

It’s never been up to us, no matter how much we’d like,
To think that we are the ones who are in control.

I’ll awaken all of me,
There’s parts that haven’t been discovered,
You all just wait and see,
That I’ve been wrong all along.

Creator, capacitator, destroyer. 
Never...
