Rhetoric Wars

from Audio Nova by Jan Dylan Hunter

/

lyrics

See the divided lines
Lines drawn in the sand
Sand dug so deep into trench warfare
trenches full of hate and sadness

Its so sad how the TV lies
Lies from the servile actors
The spun truth, so contrived
Down here on the front lines

Up there, the engineers
Social reconstructors
Turn gears to crank out fear
To save us from ourselves

Who are these engineers?
Working for the puppet-masters
And who are the puppet-masters?
The filthy-rich pulling on our strings

You can’t trust the journalists
I flip through channels and they’re all the same
Online the censor searches
To move opinion in their chess games

I don’t want to be a pawn
I’m pulling back at my puppet strings right now
The truth will set us free
Let’s write our own history!

These are the rhetoric wars
Wars fought with information
Sensation, gut reaction
Split truth to divide factions

Fracked faked-out families
And friends who soon stop speaking
But we all want the very same thing
Truth, peace and prosperity

Truth, peace and prosperity

Truth, peace and prosperity

about

Jan Dylan Hunter Santa Rosa, California

I play all the instruments on all my recordings unless otherwise noted, my main tools being guitar, keyboard and percussion.

I grew up in the Virgin Islands where I learned steel pan, percussion and clarinet.

Since then living in other states like California exposed me to more culture. Recent trips throughout Europe and the US have also really widened my musicabulary.
-Still taking it all in.
