We Are Winning
Flobots - 《Fight With Tools》
LRC by lzh from jiangxi pingxiang
Rival gangsters sit down to plan an after school program
A religious fanatic posts footage of an interfaith service project
A group of teenage boys watches a video of a father playing catch with his son
An adult film star paints thumbnail portraits of elderly couples fully clothed an smiling
A record executive records a demo of his apology
A policeman makes reverse 911 calls instructing residents to take to the streets
A patriarch reports for duty
She's wearing an orange jumpsuit and holding a picket sign
She's ashamed of her birthplace but retreat is not an option
Stand and be counted wounded stationed
In the belly of the vulture watch your back
Consider this a distant early warning
Pollution gathering dust particles
Funneling through smokestacks airways bandwidth
This information tube fed
Butterfly wing cross wings send black hawks toward hurricane survivors
Roses sprout from empty lots and sidewalk cracks
Pacifist guerrillas move undetected through concrete jungles
New forms are beginning to take shape
Once occupied minds are activating
The insurgency is alive and well
The new American insurgent
Rattle and shake the foundations of the world order
Assembly line incent resist refuse
Direct loved one's to the trenches
Suit up forge rubble into fortress's
Burn blood stains from decompressed diamonds
Hammer the battle cry into braille studded armor
We are building up a new world
Do not rely on this broadcast alone
We are only as strong as our signal
There is a war going on for your mind
If you are thinking you are winning
Your weapons are already in hand
Reach within you and find the means by which to gain your freedom
Your fate and that of everyone you know
