What I really wanted to do was go off on a Noam Chomsky, Zack de la Rocha ‘this is what’s wrong with the world, this is how we should fix it’. I don’t have that – I only have my feelings and opinions. It’s an expression of my frustration when I look at all the obvious injustices and imbalances in t...
[Intro]
War with an enemy we can't reach
So we turn our rage to the man on the street
No profit in unity
Our silence no longer speaks
[Verse 1]
Face it, you know you're never gonna change it
From subliminal to blatant, keeping you complacent or terrified
Fake it, I'd do anything to make it
All alone I sit upon my throne, it's so close I can taste it
[Pre-Chorus]
Push in and split the skin
Give in to sin
[Chorus]
Obey? You should know by now
You can't hold me down
Better watch your mouth
Or I'll knock you out
Obey? You should know by now
We stand our ground
Better watch your mouth
One slip and they'll snuff you out
[Verse 2]
You're the first and last word, who's first and who's third?
You took all their worth and the worst is unheard of
The puppets narrate the word of the day
They're talking in circles, I need to think straight
So I followed the water up stream
And now I can't hear myself think
The river moans, the ocean's woes, it never sleeps
[Chorus]
Obey? You should know by now
You can't hold me down
Better watch your mouth
Or I'll knock you out
Obey? You should know by now
We stand our ground
Better watch your mouth
One slip and they'll snuff you out
[Bridge]
War with an enemy we can't reach
So we turn our rage to the man on the street
We wait for compassion to overcome self interest
Far too patiently
We're still slaves to a media driven binary
'Cause those that know know there's no profit in unity
Our silence no longer speaks
(Silence is golden)
(To those who control it)
[Chorus]
Obey? You should know by now
You can't hold me down
Better watch your mouth
Or I'll knock you out
Obey? You should know by now
We stand our ground
Better watch your mouth
One slip and they'll snuff you out
