	Story Behind the Song Lyrics "Defy laws of culture. Destroy minds of vultures. We must have disorder to give the lives the justice. With front lines of murder and capital embellishments. Their frontier continues - we fill parks and venues. Come together! Right now! Over me! And form the bond that breaks the law. And help your brother gain ground above - To see through the smoke and Cut the media's throat! Aggressive approach to the enemy authority. The government and corporations have control of thee. Realize the motives over in the Middle East.  We need to come together and we'll rise up like yeast. The beast is Uncle Sam and his feast is the world. A heartless entity we must destroy at the core." Chorus: "They hypnotize the eyes with the fear of an attack. Contrive the lies so the masses all support their acts. Commercialize Iraq to get the 87 billion back" (repeat)  "Different impressions of a world at war. The media glamorizes, masses yearn for more. Imbedded reporters lying from the ground floor. Using metaphors to sensationalize the norm. Bombs get dropped from 30 thousand feet. Iraqi children get sqashed from their head to their feet. Either you're with us or against us, labled terrorists. There are only 2 choices in a world of myths. Imperialist politics. Human beings turned to statistics. This contradicts what we claim and we insist. Killing now for a future paradise. This mass murder of the moment will never suffice. Inticed to see that we all wave our flags. Cheering for our soldiers coming home in body bags. If you really supported the troops, you'd want them home. Pax Americana - All roads lead to Rome." (Chorus) "The Pentagon it briefs on the brink of destruction. Its function is to simulate a threat, so eruption can take place and troops be called to engage. In weeks will be a coup, but dissent will still remain. And so will the pain of the families grieving. Whose Sons have been slain for some oil and thieving. Meanwhile, Bush is landing off of Air Force planes, in a shameless attempt to enhance his campaign. And Hussein is alive and no weapons were found. But the pawns of this War made a home in the ground."
