[Spoken] 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 and smiling A record executive records a demo of his apology A policeman makes reverse 911 calls instructing residents to take to the streets A patriot 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 Women and children Frontline Logon Tune in Stand and be counted Wounded Stationed In the belly of the vulture Watch your back There's no civilians Women children Frontline Listen Consider this a distant early warning The fires imminent Pollution gathering dust particles Funneling through smokestacks Airwaves Bandwidth Disinformation tube fed Check the label Delete the virus Alert the masses [Spoken] Butterfly wing crosswinds 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 People are waking up The insurgency is alive and well Rise of the flobots Portrait of the new american insurgent Rattle and shake the foundation of the world order Assembly line consent Resist Refuse Inform Create Direct loved ones to the trenches Suit up Forge rubble into fortresses Plaster Cloth Aluminum Broken porcelain Rusted platinum Burn bloodstains from decompressed diamonds Hammer the battlecry into braille-studded armor [Spoken] We are building up a new world Do not sit idly by Do not remain neutral 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 Resistance is victory Defeat is impossible Your weapons are already in hand Reach within you and find the means by which to gain your freedom Fight with tools Your fate and that of everyone you know depends on it
