“Me and all my friends
We’re all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing and
There’s no way we ever could…”
~ John Mayer
fast is the century, the airplane crashes
tsunamis more common in their
execution, destiny enlightened
i watch for signs from the ocean
meteors, extinction events
plagues, global warming
governments muzzling scientists
democracy being wounded
by corporations taking over the media
I see it every day
this is what I witness
currencies cracking
fear in the marketplace
panic amid layoffs
fast is the century,
each month they tell me
it’s the warmest on record
i speak of eternity, but nobody listens
they are living the American dream
exploiting others for profit
Mexicans leave their children
inside the borders, so that
America might become a spanish place
it is happening, soon there will be no
‘us’ and ‘them’, the world is changing
And I’m waiting for the world to change.
Those last three lines, very powerful.
I fully agree with the title
The media’s the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that’s power. Because they control the minds of the masses.
Malcom X
Yes and it’s no secret who controls the media..
Yeah, handful of them controlling billions but the irony, only handful out of billions astride their conscience and truth.
