lyrics

You say a lot of things, but you don't really mean it
Want to act tough when really y'all scarred
You say a lot of things, but you don't really mean it
So I'm calling your bluff and I don't really care

Talk is cheap when the words that you speak
Mean very little and we need something deep
You are what you eat - so be careful of the thoughts that you preach
The sauce that you leak, the gloss that you seek
is all lies, flossing a permanent state of demise
Blinded by shine when you open your eyes
The gold and the diamonds shown like a prize
Owning your pride - What part of selling out did you not get or realize
It's all a guise
Music from the soul gives strength to the people
Those in control want to use it for evil
Case in point: the eye of the needle
Might fit a camel, but not a bunch of heathens
So if seeings believing, what do you think your videos are teaching?
Brain bleaching, white washing
You can be reach but what's it really costing
Last time I checked on things that we need
It had nothing to do with envy or greed
Knowledge is the fruit so I'm planting the seed
Devil's work done when there#s no good deeds
No good leads, hell to high water
Ashes to dust in the name of our father
Fascist thugs screaming why bother
Paint a pretty picture and hung it on the alter
So get down on your knees, pray to the paper of cowardice thieves
Just know that you have been deceived
The jewel that they keep is that you can be free...
