Fight With Tools
Lyricist:Stephen Malloy Brackett, Andy Guerrero, Jamie Laurie, Kenny Ortiz, Mackenzie Roberts, Jesse Walker
Transmission Signals comin' through, okay
Echo, echo one-nine Hear the call through fault lines Smoke signals, old rhymes Shorted lights in store signs
Spelled in a broken code Find that it is time to Breathe, build, bend And refine you
We sky tenants give it all But won't give up radio Soul antennas, radio You lift spirits
Call sign, â€~Commando' M.O. is independent Scream till the walls fall Dissolve all the limits
Occupied minds Unemployed skills Desolation, worn out Torn down
â€~Just for now' thrill seekers Slangin' test tube babies in beakers Where gun blasts pump Straight from the speakers
The system where The poor get poorly paid To hold the ladder Where the rich get ricocheted Into the stratosphere
And in between people Are rushin' like Vladimir With metals to make their status clear Get us out of here
We need heroes, build them Don't put your fist up, fill them With our hopes, with our hearts and our hands We're the architects of our last stand
We need heroes, build them Don't put your fist up, fill them With our hopes, with our hearts and our hands We're the architects of our last stand
There's a war goin' on for your mind Those who seek to occupy it will stop at nothin' The battlefield is everywhere There is no sanctuary, there are no civilians You have two choices, surrender or enlist
What kind of person are you? Always the first to argue Or never down to stick your neck out â€~Cause it hurts you far too much
To see your rep suffer Set you up a buffer Well, neither is enough for us cut Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com From a tougher brand of duct tape
The propaganda's stuck On us like sock pajamas Spread like a virus Through accepted thoughts And proper manners
But off the cameras Something's simmerin' across the land About to bubble up and knock The lids off of the pots and pans
We are non stop juggernauts Stomp ziggurats Spit manifestos By terabytes and gigawatts
Shock paradigms Give sense to a score Throw thoughts through the sky And activate twenty more
In these high and dry times Expectorate on dogma Pragmatic sycophants Divide and conquer
We build bridges Offer hard work and prosper As hand made heroes Brought to you by no sponsors
We need heroes, build them Don't put your fist up, fill them With our hopes, with our hearts and our hands We're the architects of our last stand
We need heroes, build them Don't put your fist up, fill them With our hopes, with our hearts and our hands We're the architects of our last stand
We need heroes, build them Don't put your fist up, fill them With our hopes, with our hearts and our hands We're the architects of our last stand
We need heroes, build them Don't put your fist up, fill them With our hopes, with our hearts and our hands We're the architects of our last stand
All free minds to the front All free minds to the front We call upon women We call upon children
We call upon the handicapped The infirmed, the week of heart We need your courage, your dedication Your passion, your commitment
Gather up your platinum, melt it down Gather up your gold, melt it down Gather up your silver, your bronze Your aluminum, melt it down Melt it down, melt it down
