| We’re living in the age of the microchip,
|
| To think real life is like those flicks.
|
| We used to watch where the doc was working for the villain to insert shit into
|
| your fingertips.
|
| The danger is, those flicks desensitized us to the ideas it could exist.
|
| Well done Spielberg & Lucas a theory conspired.
|
| I don’t know, in the pudding the proof is,
|
| But who reads the labels of what they eat.
|
| So the readers digest, just what they speak.
|
| But who’s they, bigger than the monotheistic belief.
|
| That the man is controlling the axes of e-vil,
|
| & still all the masses believe, that a masked thief, makes all the madness &
|
| grief. |
| We endure, so we indulge ourselves in the idea that wealths the cure,
|
| & further more, less ain’t more no more.
|
| We assess success like herbivores, More green, more esteem & clout to liberate
|
| us from that twenty four hourly bout.
|
| Better known as the day to day struggle, no escape from to make one you got to
|
| hustle, & that’s where the mistake comes, the tussle.
|
| Between fiendn' out for the dream or the puzzle.
|
| That perplexed minds since the beginning of time, Why are we here,
|
| do we really have free will. |
| Are we gods, god like or beast still.
|
| Did the pharaohs even have it right, in two thousand years, you’d think that we
|
| would learn. |
| Can’t take what you earn to the afterlife.
|
| Place it in a urn, the body burns liberated from the ideology that to have we
|
| like, more than life itself. |
| Man builds rockets to go to the moon but can’t
|
| lend hands to the needy in help.
|
| It’s them type moves that forever ensure that war glooms.
|
| Like a tomb where the battle was held to tell the tale how men turned heaven to
|
| hell. |
| Oh well, oh well, you know me well.
|
| A common story I came from the bottom to the well.
|
| Not quite the top so exaggeration I’m trying to sell.
|
| So since we’re building my problems I’m from the basement.
|
| No, not my sound, my surroundings, astounding if you found how we dwell.
|
| Streets are filled with complacent minimum wages.
|
| But faking as if their making the maximum & it’s breaking their pockets cause
|
| uncle sam is just taxing them, & their pockets frail. |
| Yet the streets are
|
| unpaved, still the road is rough. |
| Not for motors but their motives,
|
| exposed to black kettle & pot-holes, that just be closing up.
|
| So hold that though, Imagine having an accent that would band you for askin'
|
| for a job. |
| You’d react & hold that torch, & burn down opportunities door,
|
| the politics of classism is infused with the poor.
|
| That’s condusive for a movement or more, that’s a soon to be war.
|
| Not sure we’re living in a paradise, more like a resort unaware of life,
|
| We alright, we alright, we alright. |
