Lyrics

I have said let’s fight the rich, take the banks by storm
Spread the wealth from coast to coast, end financial porn
Reach out, grab their throats, choke the masters and their crooked courts
Rain holy hell upon their lands, burn their kingdoms and cuff their hands

Take a moment, one deep breath, and realize we can
Blow it up and build again, we need a smarter plan
Look back at where we’ve been, how on earth did we end up here
Now our system is beyond control, we can’t solve what we don’t even know

Human minds cannot be taught
To find the answers that exceed our thoughts
Let’s imagine a new way out
By which we quantify the world we wrought
Technologic, no pride or pain
Where algorithms help us find the change
Heroes, algorithm heroes
Algorithm heroes, algorithm heroes

Yesterday I saw myself marching off to war
Now I see a peaceful path to end with so much more
Don’t fight the old estate, let the data decide its fate
For every failure a better choice, for every citizen an equal voice

Human minds cannot be taught
To find the answers that exceed our thoughts
Let’s imagine a new way out
By which we quantify the world we wrought
Technologic, no pride or pain
Where algorithms help us find the change
Heroes, algorithm heroes
Algorithm heroes, algorithm heroes
Heroes, algorithm heroes
Algorithm heroes, algorithm heroes
