I ain't no thief, I simply took these Vans without buying them or trying them I knew my size, soon as I hit pavement outside they were mine, by definition I'm walking in the shoes of every politician, who took for themselves, to make wealth, dropped bombs overseas real stealth, not giving a fuck how innocent people felt yet you ask yourself why those buildings fell
Symbols of power burn
Symbols of power devoured into ashes in less than an hour these president cowards that hide behind suits and ties whether black or white, green is the only color they see though their eyes
Green is the only color they see through their eyes
Symbols of power burn

These eyes have seen subversion
With respect for the dead,
We fight this war,
On the deadly machines of progress
On the wings of religion
Ignorance has soared
On the backs of slaves
Industry was born
These eyes have seen subversion
With respect for the dead,
We fight this war,
On the deadly machines of progress
On the brink of extinction
Industry still soars
In the wake of fear
Democracy is ignored
What good is freedom with no autonomy?
Free market democracy is a dichotomy
These eyes have seen subversion
With respect for the dead,
We fight this war,
On the deadly machines of progress

This is no time to lay down, this is the freedom fight
Principles of the law
The system by which our freedom died
But it's all just a game
Principles of a nation state
The system by which we all salute the flag
It's just a part of the game
So play
Principles of debt
The system by which the banks will take us all
But it's all just a game
And the corporate agenda
is the last thing you'll see before the war
The time to boycott is now
This is no time to lay down this is the freedom fight
Take a step into this fucked up circus
Monetary censorship goes virtually undetected
Democratic process has been undermined
The lie is a virus and the public mind has been infected
Principles of technology
The system by which we're tied into the grid
And you know that they're watching you
Take a step into this fucked up circus
Monetary censorship goes virtually undetected
Democratic process has been undermined
The lie is a virus and the public mind has been infected
The public mind has been infected
It's all just a game

Divide and Conquer

Seems to me there used to be
A thing we all believed but could never explain
Definition, meta-cognition
Meaning lost in the cracks of the system
(As alone as one can be in this broken social construct)
Moving on now we're moving away
Space between us in shades of grey
Why are you standing so far away?
Heart so full of things you could not say...
Embrace this human play
Learn your lines, and save your piece
(As alone as one can be in this broken social construct)
Divide and conquer
is the will of the masters
Divide and conquer
is what they're after
(As alone as one can be in this broken social construct)
Moving on, now we're moving away
Space between us in shades of grey
Why are you standing so far away?
Heart so full of things you could not say...
Embrace this human play
Learn your lines and save your piece

These hallways lead to doors
All closed, no codes
No hope for the broke and poor
No hope for the vets after the war
Overseas there is a plan
But it's taking America for what it stands
Defy control from behind closed doors
Mobilize it's time to rise decentralize your life
Freedom
Just not for you
Freedom
What can you really do?
Freedom
Is more than a choice when you chose from a list but you don't have a voice
Freedom is as freedom does
Freedom is profit covered in blood
Big business lies while the government spies
And they work together under one disguise
Profiteering is the drive
But it's the people who fight and the people who die
Defy control from behind closed doors
Mobilize, it's time to rise
Decentralize your life
Freedom
Just not for you
Freedom
What can you really do?
Freedom
Is more than choice when you choose from a list but you don't have a voice
A corporation is not a human being
Uncle Sam wants freedom but not for you and me
'Cause politicians fight to lower corporate tax
But no one says shit about the Patriot Act
They say America has no religion
While money has become our god
Backed only by the credit that is our faith
Profit decides what's right and wrong
At what cost will this stop?
Gas prices will never top
Fat America ain't willing to walk a block
Freedom
Just not for you
Freedom
What can you really do?
Freedom
Is more than a choice when you choose from a list but you don' have a voice
They say America has no religion
While money has become our god
Backed only by the credit that is our faith
What will you do when Wall Street is gone?
At what cost will this stop?
Gas prices will never top
Fat America ain't willing to walk a block
Freedom
Just not for you
Freedom
What can you really do?
Freedom
Is more than a choice
When you choose from a list but you don't have a voice
Mobilize it's time to rise decentralize your life

Blood of the Resistance

Secret war inside a nation
Imperial hand will centralize
Eating away at our foundation
Built on our dead, our sweat, our tears
(Chorus)
Criminalize the freedom fight
From ash of corruption we rebuild
Keeping us locked down
With prison and pills
The blood of resistance has been spilled
Pseudo-economic sanctions
Justify your right to what's not yours
Medication generation
Intoxicated since the day we were born
(Chorus)
Won't you please read me a story?
From your corporate book of lies
Over medication is health
Exporting jobs makes wealth
Won't you please read me a story?
From your corporate book of lies
Tell us that free market means
You're free to monopolize
(Chorus)
Secret war inside a nation
Holocaust hides in plain sight
Medication generation
Pacified by flashing lights
(Chorus)
