There's a War Going on for your Mind - Flobots

Song: There's a War going on for your Mind

Band: Flobots

Album: Fight with Tools

Track: 01

Lyrics:
there's a war going on for your mind
media mavens mount surgical strikes from trapper keeper collages and online magazine racks
cover girl cutouts throw up pop-up ads
infecting victims with silicone shrapnel
worldwide passenger pigeons deploy paratroopers
now it's raining pornography
lovers take shelter
post-production debutantes pursue you in nascar chariots
they construct ransom letters from biblical passages and bleed mascara into holy water supplies

there's a war going on for your mind
industry insiders slang test tube babies to corporate crackheads
they flash logos and blast ghettos
their embroidered neckties say "stop snitchin'"
conscious rappers and whistleblowers get stitches made of acupuncture needles and marionette strings

there is a war going on for your mind
professional wrestlers and vice presidents want you to believe them
the desert sky is their bluescreen
they superimpose explosions
they shout at you
"pay no attention to the men behind the barbed curtain
nor the craters beneath the draped flags
those hoods are there for your protection
and meteors these days are the size of corpses

there's a war going on for your mind
we are the insurgents

I didn't leave an explanation because I didn't have the room to do so (500 char.)

Alex Jones is strong with misinformation or passing pure, biased speculation as ultimate truth. He's a good speaker and is good with words and has more than too many "followers" who cling on to his every word. He has something to say, that's for sure... but you have to be careful not to get sucked into his misinformation and manipulation...

@DrunkenLeprechaunPro a little cloak and dagger isnt it? "Stay away from Alex Jones"... no explaination? Is he crazy? Dangerous? Misinformed? You just don't like him? What's up?

EPIC.

@DrunkenLeprechaunPro I hear what you're saying loud and clear! Thanks for the encouragement!

@Jiaxis

Zeitgeist. Take some and leave some, but it's a good start.

There are TONS of videos on YouTube.

Little tip: Stay away from Alex Jones.

Educate yourself, man! This is serious. I don't want my children to have to grow up in the same freakshow that we have to. We could always use another awakened mind :)

@eskimocheese i'm helpless, stuck in a system i complain about, but not intelligent enough to push to change it. I gotta know more before i act, if i ever do.
