@Divabeat68 I think you might've missed it, this is how I interpreted the lyrics:.
'Green belts wrapped around our minds' - this is a reference to money and how it controls us. ('green' => american dollar; 'belts wrapped around our mind' => imprisonment). Without money you can't live in this society and as such so many of us have gotten so used to fighting for survival (ie fighting to obtain money) that our minds are no longer open to other possibility outside of a life lived in the pursuit of money. We're nicely brainwashed and trapped in our own little mental prisons.
I agree with you on the red tape - national security/government/media institutions and bureaucracy to hide the truth.
Let me know what you guys think.
