Best Weapon
Unveiling the Resonance: Best Weapon's Echo of Societal Strife
Lyrics
From a walk to a run
Transitioning from a slow pace to a fast one.
By the time they're done there is only rust
After the process, all that remains is decay (rust).
And the official language of fucked up and static
Describes a state of dysfunction and chaos with explicit language.
And before he speaks
Before expressing himself verbally.
His machines all agree lets wind them up and march them out
His machines (possibly metaphorical) support the decision to take action.
History repeated and read out loud
Refers to the repetition of historical events and their narration.
This could be our best weapon now
The current situation could be a powerful tool.
Said, hey don't look now
A warning not to pay attention to the impending change.
Stripes and suits pushing the numbers through
People in authority manipulating data.
They treat them like they don't exist
Treating individuals as if they are invisible or insignificant.
And they count them up like they're matchsticks
Tallying up individuals like objects without recognizing their humanity.
And they don't recognize until spoken in a headline
Recognition only occurs when presented in a sensational manner.
They're just more words
Words are just words until they make headlines.
They're just more words that I can't wait to unlearn
Anticipation of unlearning certain words or concepts.
I can't wait
Reinforces the eagerness to unlearn.
This could be our best weapon now
The current situation can be a potent tool for change.
Better keep your head down
Advises caution and keeping a low profile.
Said, this could be our best weapon now
Reiterates the potential power of the current situation.
Said, hey don't look now
A repetition of the warning not to pay attention to the impending change.
Our best weapon now
Emphasizes the present situation as a powerful tool.
