Lyrics Mind Control - Akira the Don, Jocko Willink

Mind Control

You know when people think of the word mind control
They think of controlling over peoples minds
And when I think about mind control
I think about controlling your own mind
Because while I am obviously a physical person
And I embrace physicality
We are our minds
What it means and where the you actually is
And whether there is a soul, or a brain or whatever
Your heart or some other conjured up place
This is what I know, that you your mind
The thing that is listening and comprehending
These words right now
That is you
And that thing, that mind, you can control
Mind control
You are the machine
Mind control
And you can control the machine
Mind control
You have that ability
Mind control
And you’re gong to do what you want to do
And people ask me how I get tougher
Be tougher
They ask me how can I wake up earlier
Wake up early in the morning
How can I work out consistently every single day?
Work out consistently every single day
How can I stop from eating sugar?
Stop eating sugar
What about the emotions?
How can I stop missing that girl or that guy?
Or whoever broke up with me
How can I stop missing them?
Stop missing them
That is mind control
You have that ability
You just have to assert it
You have to decide that you’re going to be in control
Mind control
You are the machine
Mind control
And you can control the machine
Mind control
You have that ability
Mind control
And you’re gong to do what you want to do
Weakness?
Doesn’t get a vote
Laziness?
They don’t get a vote
Sadness?
No, no vote
Frustration?
No vote
Negativity?
You don’t get a vote
I don’t even give my temper a vote
So, the next time you’re feeling week
Or you’re feeling lazy, or your feeling soft
Or your feeling emotional
Tell them that they don’t get a vote
Tell them that you are declaring Marshall law on your mind
You are declaring mind control
To impose what you want on your brain
Mind control
You are the machine
Mind control
And you can control the machine
Mind control
You have that ability
Mind control
And you’re gong to do what you want to do
