about

Binary thinking is often the root of many problems in the world. Power seekers understand it is in their best interest to create a bad guy and encourage people to fear “the other side”. In reality we are more similar than different. I wrote this song in protest of the controlling and binary way leaders message people they are supposed to serve. Misinformation leads to doubt, fear, and suffering and eventually war. I am sounding like Yoda - but its true. People are not something you can “Divide By 2”.

lyrics

Plot old as time, it’s nothin new
Evil minds divide the world by 2
Convince the masses someone’s taking from you,
and there is nothing you can do

But you’re a lot like me and I am a lot like you
People aren’t something you divide by 2
Makes this old world, black and blue
Shattered, battered, black and blue

When did our difference become our fear
Why is our difference all we hear
A rhyme a reason, light a fire, take control
and make people fear, what they don’t know

But you’re a lot like me and I am a lot like you
People aren’t something you divide by 2
Makes this old world, black and blue
Shattered, battered, black and blue

The past doesn’t just sit on the shelf
History likes to repeat itself
It’s up to me, it’s up to you
We better get busy there is work to do

Cause you’re a lot like me and I am a lot like you
People aren’t something you divide by 2
Makes this old world, black and blue
Shattered, battered, black and blue

Cause you’re a lot like me and I am a lot like you
People aren’t something you divide by 2
Makes this old world, black and blue
Shattered, battered, black and blue
Shattered, battered, black and blue
Black and blue
Black and blue
Black and blue
