Michael Tolcher- "Mission Responsible" POLITICAL SONG

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

I was at a concert the other day (maroon5 and gavin degraw) and the opening act was a guy named Michael Tolcher... None of his lyrics were on the internet for his songs because he's not popular, so I listened to this song about 2000 times to get it. You might be able to download it or listen to it at www.michaeltolcher.com... I remember listening to it during the concert and thinking the political message (especially during the fast "white rap" section in the middle) was rather cool and that I could share it.


Be a part of an institution
Lead the way in a revolution
Wear a wig and a permanent smile
Be a part of a celebration
Make the plan or the cancellation
Quick decisions, let’s change our minds

There’s people out there
It’s people we are
Just faces
From different places
Drinking juice from mason jars

I’m on a mission responsible
Say your goodbyes

Be a father of no relation or
Be a symbol for procreation
Strike a match and there’s sure to be fire
Be a part of your situation and
Blame yourself for your frustration
Dig a hole till you lose your desire

There’s people out there
It’s people we are
Just names
Playing different games
Drinking Coke and eating candy bars

I’m on a mission responsible
Say your goodbyes
I’m finding anything’s possible
Closing your eyes
Closing your eyes
Closing your eyes

Be a part of your own decision
And see your future with tunnel vision
Take a chance if you want to survive
(You wanna survive, don’t ya?)
Be the talk a conversation
You’re a superstar out of isolation
Get the keys it’s your turn to drive

There’s people out there
It’s people we are
Just voices
With different choices
Smokin’ dope and rockin’ our guitars

I’m on a mission responsible
Say your goodbyes
I’m finding anything’s possible
Closing your eyes

Well I’ll put it all to rest
And all this shit is on my chest
And every time I turn around I don’t see trees fallin’ down into something that we should buy
I’d rather have the oxygen
Well I’m sure you would agree although you seem to fight with me
But there’s a situation here that doesn’t seem to wanna disappear
And another world won’t go away
And we must do something
Now people not tomorrow, yesterday
If there’s something that ain’t right here then it’s never too late
To make a change, understand, if there’s work to be done
Then it starts with number one
That’s you, so smile, but please don’t believe the only lie and eat the government cheese
This shit is poison, it kills your mind and your soul, and we have lost control

Now you see that we can’t go along
If I can see it in the eyes of world leaders and they’re all wrong
And every single word that they write
And that’s what I’m gonna fight to survive
It’s my only desire to elevate the spirit
And cultivate the higher
Rhythms and rhymes when livin’ is blind
And an act of reality is tried up in your mind

Freedom

I’m on a mission responsible
Say your goodbyes
