The Culture

Controlled and helpless like a marionette
You've let them do your thinking, it's become an etiquette
This done over time, without breaking a sweat
Broken through the mind
We've all been confined
To be blind
To choose sides
Those great and new divides
Cause further landslides
World of division
Is bound for a collision
New World Order, tap out, submission
We're beaten down with these labels and categorizations
Which further push our frustrations
To the edge, by certain declarations
When it's about the rich versus the poor
It's hard to ignore
But as the tensions soar
The lore
Seems to be true, and the blood and gore
Presented by your television sets
Are orchestrated by those that you adore
Those that you praise
Are only thinking of how to erase
You from the human race
Money talks
And bullshit walks
As it locks
The culture that you embrace
The culture that will deface
The culture with no taste
Following and not questioning
Following and not wondering
Following and still slumbering
Happy customers of misery
Experiencing through trickery
Lying to ourselves about our destiny
Don't take my words for granted
It’s evident that the world's been slanted
Enchanted
By the ideas of those that seek to enslave
Those that seek to pave the way
Our minds are in grave danger
As these strangers
Want to be the absolute arrangers of our lives
It seems that their obsession thrives
Through this they contrive
Control what you see
Ideas of what you should be
One thing’s for certain though, you are not free
A mere brick in the wall
A leaf browning during fall
A mere child, that's still learning to crawl
In laws we confide
But they cannot be applied
To elite or big daddy gov, access denied
They're the same shit
Just infiltrated with dollar signs and wit
So sit with me and come think a bit
It’s the culture

In Plain Sight

In plain sight
Thinking outside the box certainly shocks
But the hands on the clocks keep on its path
Every second that is laid to waste lets the psychopath claim its wrath
From our first breath to our last
Many events we couldn't grasp
Shape the world and manipulate the past
Making these ideas churn our deepest fears
As it steers our minds
While the wickedness grinds
To turn the blinds of the curtains
For certain you believe everything you are told
And the burden of fellow man
Falls at the hands of a certain plan
Thus your free will certainly ran away
Stuck in this play
It's hard to put your finger on what's gone disarray
But mathematical sequences prove illogical frequencies
All those secrecies that you believed were conspiracies
Further emphasize the probabilities
As the very stability you once believed
Conceived the notion of being deceived
Seek the light, you know what's right
Let me show you what's been in plain sight
Align your sight
See with your hidden eye
In plain sight
The truth always comes back into the light
In plain sight
Yeah it’s in plain sight, it’s right in front of your eyes
But all over the news, there’s an abundance of lies
They’re feeding junk to your mind
There must be something to hide
Well have you ever met the devil?
He comes in disguise
And I’m not one to deny that a number of times
I’ve been feeling like I’m trapped here under the skies
Yeah it feels like a prison and I’m wondering why
Well now it’s time to let the truth come to the light
I’m having fun with the rhymes and still I’m talking the truth
It’s in my best interest, I’m supporting the youth
With my scriptures, to help them see the bigger picture
Cause too many distractions are distorting their view
They’re spreading fear when they’re reporting the news
Watch out for the laws that they’re enforcing on you
It ain’t right but the truth is in plain sight
Food for thought, we’ve got a portion for you
Align your sight
See with your hidden eye
In plain sight
The truth always rises above the lie
In plain sight
