lyrics

Weaponized
My mind has been weaponized To only see the misery
All my thoughts desensitized  Making you my enemy
Emotions are anesthetized To argue for the ones who hate
The profits are all emphasized Preemptive strike, do not wait
Neighbors, friends and family Have all become my enemy
Everything is blasphemy I’m losing all my clarity
Emotions, I no longer feel Electronics are all here to steal
I struggle every day and night To see which one is wrong or right
My mind has been weaponized Triggered by remote control
No chance to be reconciled Controlled by those without a soul
An enemy identified Find you while they’re on patrol
The crime is unspecified But your gonna pay the toll
Neighbors, friends and family Have all become my enemy
Everything is blasphemy I’m losing all my clarity
Emotions, I no longer feel Electronics are all here to steal
I struggle every day and night To see which one is wrong or right
You don’t have to do
What they tell you to
You are free to think
What ever is on, your, mind

We all can be friends
This is not the end
Regardless of what they say
We can all do it any way

You don’t have to hate
It’s not all to late
We’re not on the brink
You’ve just got to open up your mind

It’s not, us or them
We can, all be friends
Who cares what they think?
We can do it for all man kind

My mind has been weaponized As if I am expendable
My anger is intensified All of it intentional
Hatred now is organized Becoming three-dimensional
My thoughts unrecognizable None of it consensual
Neighbors, friends and family Have all become my enemy
Everything is blasphemy I’m losing all my clarity
Emotions, I no longer feel Electronics are all here to steal
I struggle every day and night To see which one is wrong or right
My mind has been weaponized Conditioning it starts at birth
Vocabulary emphasized Always guaranteed to hurt
Actions are all mechanized Convinced that we all have no worth
Everyone is centralized On prison planet earth
You don’t have to do
What they tell you to
You are free to think
Whatever is on, your, mind

We all can be friends
This is not the end
Regardless of what they say
We can all do it any way
