The Narrative

Prey on ideals

Feed on devotion

Just to get a rise

Trigger our emotions

Deliver images

That never should be shown

Everything is done

With manipulation

Put that spin on it

Get our feelings riding high

Share that take of it

Enrage the other side

A quiet protest

Forms a million

Furious loud voices (Voices)

They drown out what's important

Drop the blindfold

Your values are bought and sold

These armies are clashing

These people are listening

They’re all forming our stories

But are they worth our attention?

Theories before proof

Judgement before evidence

No justification

For your speculation

Theories before proof

Judgement before evidence

This method's been broken

Since its inception

Silver linings

Laced with agendas

Your motives concealed by camouflage

Maybe it's time

We turn to our brother

Settle our differences

Believe in one another

They want to breed division

We chose to resist their mission

We will bind this world we live in

These armies are clashing

These people are listening

They’re all forming our stories

But are they worth our attention?

We can't see the facts

They've been kidnapped

We'll hunt them down, set them free from their traps

Dig a little deeper

Change what we inherited

Power to the people

Or power to the narrative?

Dig a little deeper

Change what we inherited

Power to the people
