Divided By A Negative

about

Written and performed by: The Grinning Barretts, with Mark Russell and Jim Martin. Spoken word section written by Jim Martin

lyrics

It's pervasive, all consuming in it's reach
Spreading like a virus between commercial breaks
So persuasive, facts succumb to belief
A weaponized amygdala, he's armed to the teeth

It's containment of opinion televised
We're turning on each other, conditioned to despise
At the arraignment, flashing white power signs
Dog whistle politics and hate on the rise

We've been divided by a negative
Sights set on each other, tribal warfare in the streets
Divided by a negative
Amplified and multiplied division and deceit
