Coming Back, Humming His Hymns A Little Altered...

So there is officially a website up for the we are not losers, we are LASERS movement. It steams from the release of Lasers in December, which is Lupe Fiasco's 3rd studio album. He nixed the whole LUPE.N.D. concept and developed this one...

He made it a positive movement. He even has a 'manifesto' revolving around dismissing the title of 'losers' and establishing a more positive mind-state of being lasers; a more positive title that promotes a more affirmative lifestyle...
Lasers are the opposite of losers. Lasers are shining beams of light that burn through the darkness of ignorance. Lasers shed light on injustice and inequality. Losers stand by and let things happen. Lasers act and shape their own destinies. Lasers find meaning and direction in the mysteries all around them. Lasers stand for love and compassion. Lasers stand for peace. Lasers stand for progression. Lasers are revolutionary.
Lasers Are The Future.
As for the manifesto? I'm cool with it, it has a direction. I look at it as not something intended to be followed; nor as Lupe trying to be a preacher. I see it as opinion on a direction to live an ideal life. So I'm cool with it...
