Sleep (feat.Eric Castiglia)

Hey friends,

This song is my personal comment on the food industry, pharmaceutical industry, and capitalism in general. It is not about satan or the devil, however it is about the underbelly and dark side of the topics discussed. Please don’t get me wrong. I enjoy the luxury of going to the grocery store, modern medicine, and amazon just like any good capitalist does. I just believe that a system defined by profit only points the shiny parts toward the consumer. There is no financial benefit to being transparent, honest, or fair. It then becomes the consumers responsibility to inform themselves as to what the nasty bits look like and mean to them on a personal level. I’m ok with this myself as I have a curious mind regarding these subjects and I like to know what and whom I am supporting. I’m willing to do the research and change my habits to be better in line with my ideals. I do believe that many are asleep on the issues. Pharmaceutical companies charging billions of dollars to a population that are sick and financially distressed, the food industry destroying forests and killing billions of animals at staggering rates, and billion dollar corporations selling us the latest throw away gadget, are some of the things that don’t agree with me. I do not have the answer, I wish I did. I do know that we can do better, but only if we are awake. Wake up or stay asleep, the choice is yours.
