"We Fight Back, We Decentralize" a song I wrote inspired by the power of Steem & crypto

in music •  8 years ago 

It seems like everywhere you look these days, the powerful and the corrupt are calling the shots. But with new cryptocurrency and associated technology bringing back freedom and privacy to the individual, we shall soon see this change.

I wrote this song thinking about how people are resisting the ever present attempts to limit our liberty. Whether it is financial, psychological, ethical, or any aspect of our lives that we hold dear. People are now not just voicing their dissatisfaction with the way things are being run, but taking effort to create new communities such as this one where they can pursue their own activities as they wish.

I hope the song resonates with fellow Steem visitors and gives you a dose of inspiration to continue doing what you are doing:

They want to control your money
They want to control your life
They want to control your freedom
They want to control your mind

They want to control your story
They want to control who you are
They won't stop at nothing
But they won't get too far

Because we fight back
We decentralize
We digitize a way around them
We confound them
Use our hearts and minds to ground them
For our tide cannot be stopped

They want to control your lifestyle
They want to control your eyes
They want to control your thinking
They want to control your time

They want to control your story
They want to control who you are
They won't stop at nothing
But they won't get too far

Because we fight back
We decentralize
We digitize a way around them
We confound them
Use our hearts and minds to ground them
For our tide cannot be stopped
