Time to Rise 01:26

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

Government is slavery And that's word to Mark Passio That's why I kick back blazing weed When I'm chilling on my patio But we need to rise up with bravery The time is now no casio Government is slavery That's word to Mark Passio There ain’t nothing you can say to me You're never gonna change my mind, that's not the way to be My mind is open blatantly I see visions that you'd pay to see Where is life taking me? All I can do is wait and see But I don't wanna face defeat I like victory cause the taste is sweet But look at what's happening Look at this lifestyle we're trapped in That's why I just kick back relaxing Meanwhile the whole world is collapsing It's cause the government is too corrupt It's clear to see that they're using us You know they always hide the truth from us Well here is something to discuss Who is really in control? Are we all just lost souls playing our role in society? Cause undeniably We're living with a variety of issues In the streets guns and drugs are misused Power is abused until riots break out They cause destruction on a smaller scale To other places around the world where all has failed Yeah we got people sleeping rough Some places got wars, is that deep enough? There's poverty everywhere, it's more than regular The world's a mess you know, it's all crazy Not the kind of place that I'd like to raise a baby You're mad if you think that the lord is gonna save me Or save you it ain’t true, only you can save yourself Wake up! We need to reach for the light We need to makes things right We need to take flight Government is slavery We need to show bravery Free our minds, it’s savory We need to stand up It’s that time to disrupt And abolish the corrupt As the sound of sirens erupt Even though the road ahead Oozes that of a code red Those tears that we have shed Will not go to waste Memories of the fallen will be embraced For now, our appetites crave a different taste The taste of love to disperse And make the evil reverse Put an end once and for all to this eternal curse

The Culture 03:42
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

World of Sin 04:43
This world that we're living in It's fucking sickening The people that are sitting in positions of power They just want to devour your soul But don't cower, be bold and be brave Because this path that we pave It will lead to a place in which you can escape this matrix And all the fake shit that they force in your faces on a day-to-day basis It's such a disgrace, it's appalling That's why I'm rising up, I had a calling But I'm falling deeper into this rabbit hole It's a massive hole, something like a bottomless pit Nah it's not rock bottom but this is not the best of places God is tryna test my patience I get frustrated, nah that's an understatement But I'm just waiting for the revolution Evolution of human consciousness AI is not the answer That's a recipe for disaster The future looks grim now You might think that we can never win now But don't worry we can still bring down these monsters Divide and conquer, that's what they're tryna do They're dividing us, distracting you with this virus stuff Times are rough and there's a hidden agenda Do you remember what life was like before this? Or is your memory distorted? It's cause they're banging on about what the new normal is It's all a trick don't fall for it It's just a scam God damn How they got the whole world living prang Well I ain’t gonna live in fear, I'm sitting here meditating Elevating my state of mind and demonstrating How to free your mind, you'll be surprised When you see the signs and the symbols It's all complex, it isn't simple The way I'm living isn't sinful but I'm a rebel, I fight the devil Cause yeah he's really here living on earth inside each and everyone of us But it's the gods that I summon up Cause all these demons are dumb as fuck All they wana do is come and fuck with us in each and every other way Every other day they make you wanna run away But there's nowhere to run to So what some do is drown themselves in addiction Toxic habits they just can't resist them Caught in a trap it's all part of the system But no not me I'm MAGIC MOTLEY I just turn to nature, I know she's got me The creator, the master, she has the answers I'll take my chances in this world of sin It's a fucked up world we're in, it's corrupted And the people in control they even touch kids I'm disgusted it's really happening Child trafficking, and they're drinking the blood You think that I'm nuts, but it's a real problem that we're battling In this spiritual war I see no end in sight But that's when I'm looking with only two eyes Open up the third and let the Kundalini rise I can see through the lies I'm in the dark but I can see the light So I fight for my rights and my freedom I rhyme for a reason, fighting these demons The earth is a battlefield, I know how cattle feel cause that's what humans are We're all trapped for real and trying to escape is a gruesome task But I'm moving fast like a shooting star Across the sky like the chemicals they spray The weapons of today are the result of what happens when technology gets horribly abused And they're modifying food You are what you eat so they're modifying you But we ain’t gotta buy the food, there's alternatives We gotta find the truth but no one’s ever heard of it It's cause it's so absurd and shit And if you're plugged in then you don’t wanna hear a word of it You need to start researching it There's evidence to find if you go and do the research I'm just tryna plant a seed with these words The wave that we surf is kind of like a portal I'm using to leave earth I died many times this is just another rebirth I wish I could feed all the starving people Wishing won’t do much So I take flight like the path of an eagle I’ve got lyrics that can spark your cerebral And trauma that chews at my mind til it’s starting to eat through Who am I to complain? When there’s others that would travel miles for unclean water that contains Toxic chemicals and ghastly disease too And there’s more raw fuckery in war-torn countries Kids missing limbs yeah of course it bugs me The music is more than a dumb dream Tryna leave behind a back breaking 9-5 So that whenever I want I can walk in the sunbeams So that’s why I make more than enough beats As the state of the world’s got me normally grumpy It’s so awful and grungy The only 5G I need in my life is the heroic dose against the mainstream That’s where we’re gonna row our boat Still splashing through the waves yeah we go coast to coast They want us all controlled in our homes, you know it’s so cold Life’s a movie, a bit apocalyptic, hectic My third eye sight stretches further than binocular or telescopic lenses We need to tell them stop it But it’s very often that the tele-nonsense is endless I was watching planes fill the sky with poison Honestly it’s demonic and horrendous I wonder when it’s ending Til the next day it all clears up and I’m breathless Plastic and nuclear spills in the ocean Killing the planet, there’s too many culprits It’s all a bit mad I’ve been losing my focus So i’m making more music to boost serotonin Usually zoning

Yo… this is it Without a soul You're never whole Mindless distractions in the hyperbole Unknown beginning, we pay for our sinning Is it the ego that's winning? Not letting us be our best We've literally been put in a test Will it be good or evil that conquests? We need to join together We need to change things forever Let differences aside and enjoy the weather Take back control, like VAR, end their goal As the spectators realize it's all a show They band together and even flow And we rise with the soul Letting go of control We will stand for what is right We will work to be whole And the darkness will fall We will stand for what is right I swear most people are soulless It's like the demons control us Sitting in the sky playing life with controllers We need the angels to console us Chase your dreams, don't be goalless I ain’t living in the dream that they sold us Weight of the world on our shoulders Heavy like boulders But til we're olders we'll be soldiers And we rise with the soul Letting go of control We will stand for what is right We will work to be whole And the darkness will fall We will stand for what is right Yeah we’ll stand for what’s right We’ll throw our hands up and fight So to every woman, and man that’s alive Don’t let the world dismantle your mind Even though it’s challenging at times We won’t quit, evolving Til the doors of my thoughts have been opened If you’ve got a problem you can resolve it Figure it out, and keep coping! Stand for what is right And we rise with the soul Letting go of control We will stand for what is right We will work to be whole And the darkness will fall We will stand for what is right Stand for what is right We will stand for what is right
