Gunshots By Computer (Saul Williams)
are you looking for the truth or for another fight?
if you want to give me what i want then give it up tonight
freedom
ain't looking for no, ain't looking for no fight
if you want to give me what i want then give it up tonight
the world that circles around me can benefit from silence
this song is my enemy, watch how i become it
cradled by mystery and make believe i am floating in the other night
children wish upon me
this man and his army are praying in their fortresses making guns of steeples
insurgents of people
through messiahs
an immigrant detained at the border
severed from his trinity, his wife, and his daughter
america the beautiful, not beheaded hold down
lynchburg throwdown
it seems our favorite past-time has become our most feared future
technology has failed us
gunshots by computer
are you looking for the truth or for another fight?
if you want to give me what i want then give it up tonight
freedom
ain't looking for no, ain't looking for no fight
if you want to give me what i want then give it up tonight
Remix of "Hyperpower" by Saul Williams.
Titled "Gunshots by Computer" on the Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D sleeve, but "Guns by Computer" is the official track name.
Mastered by Brian Gardner at Bernie Grundman Mastering, Hollywood, CA.
"severed from his trinity/his wife and his daughter"... gotta be my favorite lyric in this song, but the whole thing is brash & powerful. Go Saul.

A message to the controllers...slaves should listen too.
Free them now! Free ALL of them. We can forgive. Freedom for fogiveness, it's worth the exchange, its a WIN WIN scenario (Collective RESONance)that way, not the ZERO SUM (Collective DI-SSonance) you are trying to manifest. Let go of the need to control. Try it, for once in your life, as dark as you have become. JUST TRY it, consider it even, do something different, something positive, take ONE STEP FORWARD, it is NEVER too late to do the right thing. If you REACH UP for our hand we would be no better than you if we didn't try to help pull you up too, we need to help each other or we all fall down. It's worth a try, just like this message.
