I'm sure someone else has said this, but after watching the Tombsona introduction videos, I think the song is from the perspective of the human hosts of the Tombsonas, what with being chosen by an inscrutable power and losing themselves(as they are controlled by the Tombsona). Each Tombsona's scene, except seemingly Doc's(Blue Guy who I don't think uses a host), seem to show how the Tombsonas found their hosts, Tesla's(Pink) host making the mask, Armstrong's(Red) host floating through space, Zero_One's(Orange) host touching a server, and Rust's(Green) scene seems like shortly after the host found the armor, as he isn't wearing the jacket and the armor is lighting up(Rust's hosts are also generally already rebels which would explain the police). A cabaret is a performance containing music, dance, or drama, and the Tombasonas(as we can all see) all take part in the performance of the music, so the "I heard you play/In the digital cabaret" is likely the host speaking to the Tombsona. At the beginning of the song the host is questioning whether they will still be themself ("will I be myself again?"), in the middle they want it to stop and are being truly taken over(starting with "let me out" and "Losing everything I called human", transitioning to "Free will is miles away", "I’m okay", and "I won’t disobey"), and at the end, they are fully subsumed by the Tombsona("I'll play a part", "You'll take my choice", "this is who I am"). Throughout the song, the singer, who I believe is the host, says they are losing who they are and don't know if they will make it through "this", but at the end, the host says they will be made into something new and that this is who they are. From Doc's introduction video we can conclude that human souls are important to Tombsonas, and one of the lines at the end of the song is "You’ll be my voice, I’ll be your soul", implying that the host will be the human soul needed by the Tombasona, while the Tombsona does all the talking and actions. On an even darker and less likely to be intended by TLT note, the Tombsonas might be making a performance of the whole thing to draw attention away from the fact that the lyrics are a person in the process of losing their mind and personality to a powerful entity who is described as "beyond remorse" and "beyond control".
