Binary - Ani DiFranco (Official Music Video)

Lyrics:
where are my sisters?
where are my brothers?
where is my family
who takes care of each other?

in the blue glow of gizmos
lurk despots in diapers
and cyborgs with bullhorns
and crackpots and snipers
like robots so cold
with such ease they dismiss you
sooner fuck you than kiss you
sooner kick you and diss you
they got networks like insects
with webs of deception
they’ll trap you, cocoon you
like a department of corrections
they come in all colors and sexes and creeds
they got all kinda issues, they got all kinda needs
little laboratory monkeys raised with no hugging
just a wire cage mamma and lab coats mugging
i feel your anger
i feel your pain
i feel the aching hole in your soul that can’t be named

consciousness is binary
consciousness is spinning
consciousness is a circuit
when consciousness is winning
consciousness is binary
consciousness is spinning
consciousness is a circuit
when consciousness is winning

you gotta complete the circuit
alone there’s just no knowing
yeah energy is destructive unless it is flowing
in the connection lies the spark
in the connection lies the art
you gotta be up in someone’s countenance
conversing with their heart
you gotta complete the circuit
not just with human beings
with the sky above you
with the earth beneath your feet
when you complete the circuit
with everything that lives
borders get blurry
and the rest is adjectives

consciousness is binary
consciousness is spinning

where are my sisters?
where are my brothers?
where is my family
who takes care of each other?

Ah she is a real inspiration to me. I am an lgbt singer/songw from Turkey and she gives me a real boost on my way. With 3 solo albums and 20 years, i am still fighting....

I haven't been this addicted to an Ani jam since Evolve!!

Well, shoot! She’s still as amazing as ever!! I enjoy her subtle manifestations of “cray-cray, ” per say, that often mocks our socially accepted “normalcy” of behavior. In turn, we can relate to our own feelings of crazy, such as getting overwhelmed, unjustly being labeled as insane, told we were acting “hysterical, ” felt suicidal, or feeling just plain different than everyone around them. Living in Clip is a fantastic part of her career that showcases not only her talent, passion, and wide-ranging creativity, but of course, also demonstrates the band’s reciprocal harmony, and ferocious yet humble accompaniment. She is, by all means, the truest version of an artist that knows no bounds. It’s easy to admit that it makes her deeply more beautiful than she already is. I’d drop the mic, but I care about it’s integrity and hope it has a long life. Keep doing you, Ani!!!

Wow Ani in a real video!! Never seen her in one she actually made. Awesome! Happy to see she didn't conform to mainstream society and shave her arms for the video. That's my girl! No surprise though. She's always been such a role model for all women everywhere. She has shown me that being your own authentic self is ok no matter what anyone says.

Hot Damn, Girl!! Been a fan for over 20 years... and you just keep delivering. This is FIRE!!

I'd be damned, ani DiFranco actually made a video.
6 candles and a cage.
Xoxo, still loving your work.

The fact she made a music video like this.. I think Ani is having a lot of fun making music again. Allergic To Water was almost.. not even advertised and the music wasn't as polished and produced as well as this.
