After releasing their euphoria-inducing single “Dystopia” via Fueled By Ramen in October, ONE OK ROCK has delivered the official music video for the track.
Directed by Kazuma Kitada, the video explores the topic of artificial intelligence and the possibility of it overtaking human intelligence. Throughout the video, the band employs generative AI alongside visuals of themselves performing, ultimately expanding on the idea of how the future may or may not reflect a type of dystopia.
Check out the “Dystopia” music video below.
“Dystopia” Lyrics:
Tryin’ to find some inner peace
Apocalyptic tendencies
We blame it on a whisper
For the shame that’s in our system
Pain in all our yesterdays
And fears that keep us wide awake
We’re looking for a reason
When did we become the heathens
My colors bleed
I’m turning blue
You say, “God speed”
I’ll follow you
We got no place to go
And nothing to lose
Find euphoria in dystopia
Let our souls become the magnets
No running from the sadness
Find euphoria in dystopia
Where there’s love and understanding
No running from the sadness

I’m gonna make it through it’s just a phase
Not giving up not in my darkest days
I’m holding on to my faith
No more getting in my own way
My colors bleed
I’m turning blue
You say, “God speed”
I’ll follow you
We got no place to go
And nothing to lose
Find euphoria in dystopia
Let our souls become the magnets
No running from the sadness
Find euphoria in dystopia
Where there’s love and understanding
No running from the sadness
Dystopia
Dystopia
Connecting you and I
It’s only up
And I’m still holding tight
Find euphoria in dystopia
Let our souls become the magnets
No running from the sadness
Find euphoria in dystopia
Where there’s love and understanding
No running from the sadness
Dystopia (x4)
