Take Back the Wire
They harvest your mind
To feed the hungry algorithm
They tie our hands shackled to consumerism
You never know what kind of trick they play
Keep us staring at our phones every day
The day that the we decided that we had enough
We stopped giving in
We called their bluff
We put away the techie toys
And what did we see?
People better people when they not on a screen
Take back take back the wire
Take back take back the wire
Take back take back the wire
Take it on back to the people on the wire
We gonna bust off bust off
Bust off your chains
Cause the way that this is going
It gotta be rearranged
They're not gonna mine
What we think and do
And if we just don't care
They're gonna run right over you
Pushing on buttons
And staring at screens
Brother Tim O'Brien he knows what it means
We're gonna sit around a fire with our rice and beans
And get to know your brother as a human being
Take back take back the wire
Take back take back the wire
Take back take back the wire
Take it on back to the people on the wire
We got the right to retake the wire
Big Tech companies set them on fire
Make a new finish line for the human race
Take back the book we'll keep the face
Take back take back the wire
Take back take back the wire
Take back take back the wire
Take it on back to the people on the wire
Take it on back to the people on the wire
Log off your computer and log in to life!
To feed the hungry algorithm
They tie our hands shackled to consumerism
You never know what kind of trick they play
Keep us staring at our phones every day
The day that the we decided that we had enough
We stopped giving in
We called their bluff
We put away the techie toys
And what did we see?
People better people when they not on a screen
Take back take back the wire
Take back take back the wire
Take back take back the wire
Take it on back to the people on the wire
We gonna bust off bust off
Bust off your chains
Cause the way that this is going
It gotta be rearranged
They're not gonna mine
What we think and do
And if we just don't care
They're gonna run right over you
Pushing on buttons

We're gonna sit around a fire with our rice and beans
And get to know your brother as a human being
Take back take back the wire
Take back take back the wire
Take back take back the wire
Take it on back to the people on the wire
We got the right to retake the wire
Big Tech companies set them on fire
Make a new finish line for the human race
Take back the book we'll keep the face
Take back take back the wire
Take back take back the wire
Take back take back the wire
Take it on back to the people on the wire
Take it on back to the people on the wire
Log off your computer and log in to life!
