The War Against Truth - Hopium

As Charles Dickens said, "Darkness is cheap." It takes energy (mental, physical and monetary) to shine a light on darkness and drive it out. This is why evil doesn't just exist in our world. It's flourishing. We need a change ... right now.

Lyrics to Hopium:
Sheep spend all of their lives in fear of the wolf
Only to be slaughtered by the shepherd
And they never see it coming

Safety always leads to greater insecurity
It's simple and so plain, but almost no one sees
It's just another tool of the oligarchy
Nobody sees it coming

A truth that's told purposely with the wrong intent
Is much worse than all the lies you could invent
No one ever sees it coming

Truth is treason in times of deceit
It's simple and so plain, but almost no one sees
It's just another tool of the oligarchy
Nobody ever sees it coming

Incentivized for the opinions you receive
The psychopaths who lead have to constantly deceive
And almost no one ever sees it coming

A dystopia that is so chilling
History's rhyming and now repeating
We are descending and unraveling
Very slow at first, but then suddenly
Toothpaste won't be put back in easily
Water in the pot has been boiling
We are running out of analogies
To describe what we are enduring ... right now

You know you know
You know you know
Even if you know, you don't want to know
Even if you know, you pretend you don't
Maybe now's the time to rethink the approach
Now's not the time to shrink, it's time to be bold
Now's not the time to do what you're being told
The emperor is not wearing clothes
Be and think for yourself, refuse to be a clone
Embrace the truth, find audacity and authentic hope

Bogged down in order, rules, regulation
Constant threats which may be real, or completely imagined
The numbers game favors us
But real resistance is dangerous
So we cleave to the slow drip we receive

Wake up and take back your power
Wake up, this is the witching hour
Wake up
WAKE UP!

War indeed, will be peace
Freedom will be slavery
Ignorance will be strength, if we don't refuse to change
Dependence to the entrenched has got to end ... right now
