gather up your platinum melt it down gather up your gold melt it down gather up your silver your bronze your aluminum melt it down melt it down melt it down This symbolizes how the flobots would like to see society equalized, from the very rich (platinum and gold) to the very poor (bronze and aluminum) to get a prominent middle class (silver). we call upon women we call upon children we call upon the handicapped the infirmed the weak of heart we need your courage your dedication your passion your conviction This symbolizes how the flobots want the socially weak to stand up for themselves in order to create a more perfect and equal society. In essence, they are pleading for the weak to help themselves because society is to engrossed with the rich and powerful, the men, and perfection to help them. we need heroes build them don't put your fist up fill them Fight with our hopes and our hearts and our hands we're the architects of our last stand This is the flobots telling young society to stand up for what is right and just, but not in any acts of violence, similar to that of the teachings of Gandhi. They are saying that it is today's youth that have to deal with tomorrows inevitable and grievous problems, and that they have to step up to the plate. |
