Analog Man 03:38
Verse I: I think Hard and large, I'm not a microsoft I got a vision that I shine when the light's go off giving sight to the blind in this fight to stop all the programed nanobot psycho cops so be careful where you step like a tight rope walk cause my mind is a weapon and it might go pop deep down inside, I'm an analog man on a mission to stop evil Babylon's plan who take away our rights just to travel on land crooked men dressed in robes with a gavel in hand they got you thinking like a program a machine in the system for them to command it's time to break the spell, take out the Klan kick down their castles like their made out of sand our education is indoctrination its preparation for an occupation they occupy your mind, one grade at a time make you walk in a line, in a box stay confined it starts way back in elementary teaching kids to accept mental slavery if you resist you are punished majorly many fall victim crime which I hate to see Critical thinkers are labeled as ADHD Surrounded by video games and HDTVs Chorus: I'm an analog man in a digital age .... Analog man ... Verse II: Imma be Honest, many people acting robotic gagets in hand, in a trance that's hypnotic the problem is chronic, people are psychotic obsessive relationships with electronics playing video games on the subway train every day as a way for them to maintain it's insane they just want to be entertained with the same media fucking with their brain The age of the robots and transhumanism altering the mind and life's organisms nano tech sun screen, digital system radio frequency consumerism The new Religion of cell phone zombies these are the minions of hell's own army What you think smart cams on an xbos is for it sounds a whole lot like 1984 This as a trend that we have to stop and Imma fight till the end, till the casket drop come on, take your google glasses off disconnect from the net, every chance you got Chorus: I'm an analog man in a digital age .... Analog man ... Verse III: We got drones on our land, patrolling the borders men in the army with mental disorders training kids to kill with xbox controllers watch, very soon you'll see robot soldiers even now, they use drones to take lives only way they could stop all of the suicides Serious though, what the hell are we doing we got flying robots with guns strapped to em Imagine robot cops with that kind of force weapons to deploy without any remorse the time is now for us to change course break the trance and reconnect with source they say life is a game like command and conquer but as a human being I'm demanding honour human hearts pump blood, I'm flesh and bone I'm in touch with the Earth my majestic home my home is my castle, I bless my throne meditate everyday, leave the stress alone remember who you are, disconnect the cord you're a human being, you are not the Borg

Nightmare 04:36
Chorus: Imagine super prisons filled to capacity they're even privatized imagine the audacity Harper government creating catastrophes now the thought police always want to hassle me Verse 1: they treat every citizen like potential criminals turning us on each other, playing with our subliminals propaganda tactics, the tvs are digital i'm talking 1984, the situation's critical It started with the crime bill, then the super prisons they filled up all the cells now they profit from the system mandatory jail time, turning kids into victims we'd all be better off if the anti-christ had risen and all of the pollution from the tar sands I can't believe this mess was made with our hands good people needed work getting money where they can didn't see the real value was protecting our land then came great disaster from the pipeline people wanted to stop it. just wasn't the right time what they did was criminal, who was there to fight crime? too busy sleeping, out of sight out of mind Chorus: Imagine super prisons filled to capacity they're even privatized imagine the audacity Harper government creating catastrophes now the thought police always want to hassle me Verse 2: With all of this destruction where was the opposition? they other parties said that they were not in the position to do anything but let it come to fruition maybe fighting for the people really wasn't their mission See, the real problems are not in politics its the people's apathy and the way that they live repeating the mantra "we can't made a difference" but if we all came together we'd win in an instant Now Harper is evil, I don't use that word lightly for all that I know the anti-christ he might be he don't speak for the majority, not even slightly he just sat back and laughing, said "try to indict me" He stole the election, no one did anything if the people only knew what he's regime might bring we gave him his power, our silence was consent if only people overstood what contracts represent If we knew what was coming, we'd never let it happen I remember the days where we sat back relaxing at the park with a beer without a care or fear without the thought police always lurking near If someone could hear, pass on the message stop Harper now or we'll be arrested a lot of brave people came together and protested but without unity the army's un-contested If I can travel back in time with these words some how then we can change the path were on but you have to act now! through direct democracy communal councils we can take the power back but we can't stand still
