about

The song Hypnotized for me refers to the desensitization of our society by various forms of media oversaturation. Anytime the media amplifies a story to such a large degree, they are doing so to capture our attention and keep us glued to the story. After hours and days of viewing the same images over and over, we are stripped of emotion into a state of disconnection from what we see. It’s almost as if the images we are witnessing aren’t real. It might as well be fiction out of Hollywood.
The soul of our humanity becomes so entranced by the spectacle, that no matter how devastating the story that’s being engrained into our psyche, it feels only natural to break away for a commercial so we’ll remember that we need to go purchase something.
Hypnotized – John Orr Franklin

lyrics

Lyrics:

"Hypnotized"

Can’t find my way through stormy weather
It’s got me searching through the night
So many feelings sewn together
so hard to tell them wrong from right

The rain it will fall and the rivers rise
Spirits will call and we’ll all be hypnotized

The sun it will rise in the desert
Serpents come out and bathe the light
you better beware and stay alert
don’t taste the venom of their bite

The rain it will fall and the rivers rise
Spirits will call and we’ll all be hypnotized

Can’t find my way through stormy weather
It’s got me searching through the night
It’s time I begin to make it better
and time to step out into the light

The rain it will fall and the rivers rise
The spirits will call and we’ll all be hypnotized
