Bahamadia - Beautiful Things lyrics

[Verse 1] Every time I pick up a paper or turn on the tube a news flash Another youth pa**ed school ground's a bloodbath Politicians caught in s** scams Major sports figures in and out of rehabs Holy war with Jews and Arabs Recalls and cutbacks feature story go to those who gay bash Bulimic and anorexic actors and actresses swapping secrets on their freakiest fetishes Pedophile predators on the internet Numerous reports of preteen s** Thirty second updates on side effects of modern medicine Rap veteran turned convicted felon Domestic violence rate excelling Embezzlement the deficit negligence More serial k**ings gang related d**h still in existence Mosquitoes dead crows and the viruses that they're inflicted With road rage incidents it's sickening [Hook] Talk about beautiful things a little bit Talk about beautiful things a little bit Talk about beautiful things a little bit Talk about beautiful things a little bit [Verse 2] JonBenét Ramsey chaos mayhem Tragedy Kosovo victims Third world country casualties Phen Phen and Herbalife may not reduce calories Corporate downsizing cut wages and salaries rich men catching bodies get away on technicality Collagen injection lyposuction plastic surgery Organized crime bosses depicted as martyrs Child care slaying underage baby aborters Authorities do search and seize without court orders Unlawful acts caught on camcorders Pollutants in the water Suicide manslaughter father preforming incest on his daughters Drug lords combatting over street corners Hit and run arson prey on senior citizens Gossip columnists feed off lies and who be living 'em Note to commentator while you at the podium Present us wit some healthy options [Hook] [Verse 3] Media slogan we uphold negative promotion To pigeon hole attention of the weak and the hopeless Telling lies through vision thinking no one is decoding it Few who do will get discredited for even noticing No wonder generation X remains emotionless Misinformed then entertained on ignorance by hypocrites Circulating seediness validated by leadership Whose primary motive is to make the public more obedient Everybody plays the fool Sometimes the main ingredient used in ploy confirming what was stated previous But if the anchor realizes his position is a gift He'd truly honor what his mission is [Hook]
