<h1>Are You Down?</h1>

I didn't get a chance to do a post last week as time was short.. but we are ready for it today!

We are going back to the 2000's and I hope that you are ready to blast off with System of a Down๐Ÿ˜ƒ

They are/were a totally unique band with an awesome sound.. and when a SOAD tune hits the airwaves you know it. And wow... talk about diverse and "unique" lyrics as well lol. Everything from phallic imagery(cigaro) to political topics such as war and the Armenian Genocide.

There are so many songs that I love.. it's a hard call to just pick three! Anyhoo..

Get those headphones on and turn it up! ๐Ÿค˜

First up we have: *B.Y.O.B.*:

This is track #2 on the Mezmerize album, which is the one I listen to the most. There a lot of great tracks on this one.. you need to give it a spin if you haven't already. A tid bit of the lyrics on this one:

> Blast off, it's party time
And we don't live in a fascist nation
Blast off, it's party time
And where the fuck are you?

> Where the fuck are you?
Where the fuck are you?

> Why don't presidents fight the war?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why don't presidents fight the war?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why do they always send the poor?

Next up we have *Chop Suey*:

This is track #6 from the Toxicity album, released in 2001. This one is about drug addiction.. and here is a bit of the lyrics:

> I don't think you trust
In my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die
In my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die

> Father, father, father, father
Father, into your hands I commend my spirit
Father, into your hands
Why have you forsaken me?
In your eyes forsaken me
In your thoughts forsaken me
In your heart forsaken me, oh

> Trust in my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die
In my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die

Next up we got the final selection *Hypnotize*:

This is track #4 from the Hypnotize album from 2005. Lots of other cool tunes on here such as Lonely Day, Soldier Side and Stealing Society. Some lyrics from this song:

> Why don't you ask the kids at Tienanmen square?
Was fashion the reason why they were there?

> They disguise it, hypnotize it
Television made you buy it

> I'm just sitting in my car and waiting for my

> She's scared that I will take her away from there
Dreams that her country left with no one there
