about

"My Line of Work" is about what working in the media is like. As someone who works in this industry, where the focus is to shift and manipulate popular opinion, this is just my own subtle blow of the whistle. I want you to know that what might seem like courageous journalism in today's time often turns out to be nothing but carefully crafted propaganda. On the other hand, courageous journalism may never reach the light of day due to censorship. That's just how it works. So, this song is to express my sympathy to the men and women able to read through the bullshit and fight for their rights wherever and however they may be opressed. My heart is with you in a time when everything is filtered and the only messages that will reach you are those that you're supposed to see...

lyrics

Hey...
Hey.
Hey!

Don’t you wonder why the clear sky’s thunder in the media? In my line of work…

They call obedience resistance, denying a resistance’s existence. In the media… In my line of work

Hey...
Hey.
Hey!

Don’t you wonder who you’re really working under? Don’t look in the streets... Where my heart still beats…

They call oppression a concession, to those protesting with passion in the streets… Where my heart still beats
