:: Awake ::

Verse 1

Nature, my point, ground zero
Pour the rain from the sky, the folk hero
Tell a story and they love you
Bring a tear to an eye
Reflect on the madness
Slowly die
Image America - lost truth
Buy back your soul - buy back your youth
Like iron in the lightning rod
I conduct
Attract electricity
Deconstruct
What I hear, see, imagine,
FEEL
Mix up all the messages
Something new that's still real
Rhymes for your mind, for your heart
We are all one, so do your part

Chorus

Awake! Awake! Awake!
Open your eyes!
Awake! Awake! Awake!
Open your eyes!
Awake! Awake! Awake!
Open your eyes!

Can you see the truth between the lies?

Verse 2

Perchance to sleep, perchance to dream
You are not your possessions
Though it may seem
Paranoia will destroy ya
So I search for peace
Freedom, elation, salvation, release
No anger through enlightenment
No fear, no pain
No jealousy, no struggle for material gain
Reflect for a second
Energize the soul
We've been blinded by the darkness
Take control

Chorus

Manufacturers control our economic decisions
Oil companies control our economic conditions
They teach us to believe in celebrities, and not religions
This is what happens when you're raised on television

Verse 3

Programmed to buy
Programmed to feed
Programmed by fear
Programmed by greed
Keeping up with the Jones
An expensive sport
Error, retry, escape, abort
Taught to consume from the moment of birth
If its new under the sun
Its far from earth
The names change
But the game remains the same
Thinking you're free is insane
But who's to blame?

Chorus
