The Message
[Verse]

Democracy is not the only cause of society
Deteriorating, I'm debating if we're worth saving
My words say that every vital person on this Earth
Is in such a condition that nothin' is ambitious
Been so much sweet talk from any kind of government
We're runnin' to the ground as punishment for being dumb in our choices
Every citizen's their own poison
Nothin' but noisy, brain-washed, I stay embarked
In my right state of mind, untouched from the swine
And nothin' will shine, our actions reflect on our crimes
And such as it's mine, people decide to cry and whine
Say it ain't so, that's the only reason why I lay low
Replace those - brain-washed people with focus
Evil provokes us, most of us cope with guns, and hope -
But to runaway from their own problems, it's selfishness
Stupidity never gets dealt with
Testaments said the elements of prejudice
Meant to confess and address them fuckin' corrupt executives
Fuck the messages they put out from television
I tell it with wisdom - in order to stay up out of them prisons
I'm trapped and it's all composed bullshit
Government chose to load the full clips and open fire
Listen to me for a brief second, I've comminished
I don't think my message comes across as finished
I've influenced menace but I twisted it with knowledge
Paved my way toward any act of scholarship that I'm honored in
Major like a university
I graduated lyricism with acquires diversity
High-five absurdities, and oblige the words in me
And collide with wordly fiends who rise in the murdering
I thrive with the nerd In me that decides to work at ease
This is just somethin' I collected intellect with
Connected it with special specimens and sentiment they never dealt with
Sent it as a motherfuckin' gifted present
And you know, it's the end of the song, it's the -
End of the psalm of the song, now I'm gone
