7empest Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Tbird666 

Cover art for 7empest lyrics by Tool

Given the album is a concept driven by an antidote to fear...in whatever manner that may arrive...and taking into consideration Tools own comments regarding individuals to place their own interpretation on the tracks... personally I find the album taken as a whole a sublime masterpiece ... and message... the Tool offered by the album is self belief and rebellion through both self awareness and awareness on our interaction between each other, our impact on the environment...and how near the abyss we actually are...... its a tool against becoming a manipulated unquestioning sheep...swallowing the materialistic BS we are fed from every angle... the 7empest... the number 7 can relate to transcendence...overcoming a spiritual dilemma... rebelling against spiritual destruction, fighting through selfe awareness a bad thing and winning...

Anyhow... to me its saying its time to work together again ( here we go again) and destroy the demigods and regain our awareness... Trump is the personification of ignorance and greed.... and his 7empest should not be our 7empest.

It's so funny how people are completely fooled

@Tbird666 So here you go talking about not being fooled by the status quo and not simply following whatever the people in power say. To think for yourself, to feel for yourself. And then you end it with some random Trump-hating message. Oh, the irony.

@Tbird666 That Trump-hating comment preceded by your diatribe about thinking for yourself and using the album as "a tool against becoming a manipulated unquestioning sheep" is just the height of irony and ignorance. The real truth is people like you are too "smart". More like you're too woke. You think the way you think is what we need when actually it will bring our demise. Wake up sheep.
