Consequences of Sleep

The slumber of a people
Left in cages
Left malnourished
Awaken the senses
Of the voiceless
To rise above

Awaken and come alive
The voices will steady rise
Awaken, now redefine
The silent must redesign

Gone is reliance on deception
The structural defects showing through
Exploiting weaknesses by conspicuous means
Vehement ideology

The slumber of a people
Left in cages
Left malnourished
Awaken the senses
Of the voiceless
To rise above

Awaken and come alive
The voices will steady rise
We'll steady rise
Awaken, now redefine
The silent must redesign

Once empirical, now just spectral evidence
The phantoms that dissipate in time
It's ill-advised to swallow what's been sold as truth
To chew so long on another lie

The slumber of a people
Left in cages
Left malnourished
Awaken the senses
Of the voiceless
To rise above

Awaken and come alive
The voices will steady rise
We'll steady rise
Awaken, now redefine
The silent must redesign

Breaking free from unwelcome arms
That wrapped them in embraces
Tight with smallpox blankets
Biting every feeding hand
Until we're free from guidance
Meant to stifle our violence

We're biting every feeding hand

We're biting every feeding hand

We're biting every feeding hand

We're biting every feeding hand

We're biting every feeding hand
