Cover art for Soil To The Sun lyrics by Cage the Elephant

this song to me is about looking past religion and keep learning. the lines "I saw the demons dreaming I heard people singing The dinosaurs are dieing The mind control's subsiding

I saw a new path Free thinkers freely thinking Can't stop a thought from breathing It moves like fire"

clearly show his attitude towards religion. i think this message is about exploring our thoughts and thinking for our selves.

I agree, and think that you stated that quite reasonably. Therefore, I think that the fact that your comment had a net of two down-votes and was flagged, apparently, reveals the presence of some Cage the Elephants fans who are quite over-sensitive about their own religion and oblivious to the fact that CtE seem to quite often criticize religion.

Yes, it is certainly not about religion. It feels more like a political revolution or uprising of the weak against their oppressors via free thinking and the elimination of mind control techniques like the corporate media and TV.

@shakeandbake257 I see where you're coming from, but personally, I believe it has more to do with politics and our own choices rather than religion.
