Ignorant Army
This steady mid-tempo post punk alternative rock fusion starts with soft bass and precise minimal drums, establishing a hypnotic groove. Male vocals, deep and mesmerizing, dominate subdued verses. Choruses bloom with layered harmonies and expansive synths. The song builds gradually to a crescendo, enveloping the soundscape with lush keyboards and intensified emotion in the final section.

Lyrics
(Verse 1)
the dawn of a new age
the start of something awful
it is all around us
the rise of the unlawful
they roam the streets at night
they are outside your door
they are under your bed
they are creeping cross your floor
(Pre chorus)
call them what you will
they scream for blood to spill
(Chorus)
it is the army of the ignorant
the platoon of the insane
the product of our times
with massive primitive brains
using their blame throwers
they have no responsibility
their freedom is your prison
because they cannot see
they are the ignorant army
(Verse 2)
with God and big business
clearly on their side
they fight for their corporate masters
with religion as their guide
they have been weaponized
and used by the elite
to usurp the country's power
and lay it at their feet
(Pre chorus)
they foolishly brave
digging their own graves
(Chorus)
it is the army of the ignorant
the platoon of the insane
they are doing gods will
with massive primitive brains
using their blame throwers
they have no responsibility
their freedom is your prison
because they cannot see
they are the ignorant army
(Break)
somewhere in time
far from now
we will not remember
how this started anyhow
the future generations
will live under their control
in that fundamental world
where every one will pay a toll
(Verse 1)
there is one weapon
that can be employed
with education voting
the army can be destroyed
(Chorus)
it is the army of the ignorant
the platoon of the insane
they are doing gods will
with massive primitive brains
using their blame throwers
they have no responsibility
their freedom is your prison
because they cannot see
they are the ignorant army
only facts can destroy
the weaponized insane
the only hope we see
to end the rule of the ignorant army
the ignorant army
