Deny, Defend, Depose (Official Music Video)

An original creation by Dusty Smith. Time for another slop drop! For those paying attention, every couple months I make a new song and music video with A.I. to test the evolution of the tools and to document their progress. I can definitely say I'm pleased with how far it has advanced since last time. Far from perfect yet, of course, but the tools are getting good enough to tell cohesive stories with them. A few more generations and its RIP Hollywood and the music industry. If you enjoy my work, please consider supporting it by becoming a Patreon!

A system broken, everyone knows, Three words define it: Deny, Defend, Depose. [Verse 1] Denied the cure, denied the care, Left to die, but they don’t despair. Families crying, hope is thin, They see the gates but can’t get in. Defend the empire, guard the prize, Profit margins above human lives. Policies written, lives disposed, They stamp it cold: Deny, Defend, Depose. [Chorus] Deny the claims, defend the lie, Depose the weak, let the strong survive. They thought it was power, but the cracks now show, What you reap you sow: Deny, Defend, Depose. [Verse 2] A shot rang out, the streets went still, Not just a man, but the system they killed. The crowd didn’t mourn, they cheered instead, Not for his death, but for what he’d said. “Your life’s a number, your worth’s a fee,” A kingdom built on misery. The people’s anger finally rose, Against the words: Deny, Defend, Depose. [Chorus] Deny the claims, defend the lie, Depose the weak, let the strong survive. They thought it was power, but the cracks now show, What you reap you sow: Deny, Defend, Depose. [Bridge] This ain’t revenge, it’s the cost of greed, A reckoning born unmet needs. You push too hard, you cross that line, The people fight back, one life at a time. [Chorus] Deny the claims, defend the lie, Depose the weak, let the strong survive. They thought it was power, but the cracks now show, What you reap you sow: Deny, Defend, Depose. [Outro] The streets remember, the pain still flows, From the seeds they planted, the anger grows. When the system crumbles, everyone knows, It started with: Deny, Defend, Depose.
