Rou Reynolds - The Appeal & the Mindsweep I lyrics

[Speaking Intro] This is an appeal To the struggling and striving Stakeholders of this planet This floating rock we call Earth Alas, that means you That means everyone of your acquaintance Every figure your eyes skim past in the street Every charlatan still to defeat Every tender face you find solace in Now mimic the mindset William Wallace was in Dismount, disembark, descend from your existence Slacken your angst and decant your hate Cause in the long run they're about as useful As pouring acid onto your dinner plate To muzzled ma**es that lead lives Of deafening desperation With Excalibur aloft King Arthur earned the throne But it's our minds we got to wrench out of the stone Don't be fooled by its simplicity There was never a broadcast made of such urgency Cause at no time before us Did we grasp the scope of this emergency Ladle out love and logic by the boatload Equipped with that cargo you can take any road Now grab life; seize time This fight is for human kind I am a mindsweeper Focus on me I am a mindsweeper Focus on me I will read your mind I dart through rapids; through streams of thought Then suddenly I started losing my mind Catapulting through the uncharted I could no longer tell if these were your thoughts or mine And it was as if I held a mirror up to my soul Who was the author? And who was the observer? Who was the author? And who was the observer? For at the last an*lysis our thoughts coalesced You are not alone You are not alone You have entered volatile territory You have started a journey; you're part of this story And this, this was just a glimpse Just a glimpse You've no idea what you've got yourself into You've no idea what you've got yourself into I am a mindsweeper Focus on me I am a mindsweeper Focus on me On me
