We Are Winning
Flobots Song Lyrics

[Speaking part]

Rival gangsters sit down to plan an after school program.

A religious fanatic posts footage of an interfaith service project.

A group of teenage boys watches a video of a father playing catch with his son.

An adult film star paints thumbnail portraits of elderly couples fully clothed an smiling.

A record executive records a demo of his apology.

A policeman makes reverse 911 calls instructing residents to take to the streets.

A patriarch reports for duty.

She's wearing an orange jumpsuit and holding a picket sign.

She's ashamed of her birthplace, but retreat is not an option.

Women and children

Front line

Log on

Tune in

Stand and be counted, wounded, stationed

In the belly of the vulture watch your back

Theres no civilians

Women, children

Front line listen

Consider this a distant early warning

The fires imminent

Pollution gathering dust particles

Funneling through smokestacks, airways, bandwidth

This information tube fed

Check the labels

Delete the virus

Alert the masses.

[Speaking part]

Butterfly wing cross wings. send black hawks toward hurricane survivors.

Roses sprout from empty lots and sidewalk cracks.

Pacifist gorillas move undetected through concrete jungles.

New forms are beginning to take shape.

Once occupied minds are activating.

People are waking up!

The insurgency is alive and well.

Rise of the flobots

Portrait of

The new american insurgent

Rattle and shake the foundations of the world order

Assembly line incent, resist, refuse

Inform, create

Direct loved one's to the trenches

Suit up forge rubble into fortress's

Plaster, cloth, aluminum

Broken porcelain

Rusted platinum

Burn blood stains from decompressed diamonds

Hammer the battle cry into braille studded armor.

[Speaking part]

We are building up a new world.

Do not sit idly by.

Do not remain neutral.

Do not rely on this broadcast alone.

We are only as strong as our signal.

There is a war going on for your mind.

If you are thinking, you are winning.

Resistance is victory.

Defeat is impossible.

Your weapons are already in hand.

Reach within you and find the means by which to gain your freedom.

Fight with tools.

Your fate, and that of everyone you know

Depends on it.
