The Narrative

Prey on ideals
Feed on devotion just to get a rise and 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 are concealed by camouflage

Maybe it's time we turn to our brother
Settle our differences, and believe in one other
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 to 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, or power to the narrative?
