Divide & Conquer

[Verse 1] Pitting one against the other Stoking the flames to divide Building a wall between self and others Having to choose just one side Focus on things that just don't matter Turn a blind eye to the truth An endless stream of worthless chatter Mindless diversion, no use [Chorus] Divide and conquer Divide and conquer Divide and conquer Divide and conquer [Verse 2] Race, religion, color or nation Reasons to kill, take your pick A history of self-immolation Amazing that we still exist Fueling the fire with disinformation Ignorance and fear reign supreme Filling others with only distrust Shattering all of our dreams [Chorus] Divide and conquer Divide and conquer Divide and conquer Divide and conquer [Guitar solo] [Verse 3] This is how it's always been done More dangerous words don't exist You'd think by now we'd have learned our lesson But still the condition persists Divided we fall, our power diminished Far easier to control The few again have conquered the masses A story that's centuries old [Chorus] Divide and conquer Divide and conquer Divide and conquer Divide and conquer Divide and conquer Divide and conquer Divide and conquer Divide and conquer
