Chuck D - Trapped Music lyrics

[Hook] It's for that next, next, y'all It's for that next, next, y'all [Verse 1] The flames of democracy a**emble a bald eagle Black people crushed under the mud of civilization I'm the invisible man, these times are translucent I'm too advanced for this h**n dance music Rap fused with the confusion of a temporary high under the prescription drug you using Or the Molly that Miley's on Black entertainment via Viacom Ironic that the icons who inspire on They more than s**, they spit vampire songs But here's an alarm for your head The Walking Dead is really The Walking Dead You probably more zombied than we think we are We gotta see beyond the bars of the Kendrick Lamar [Hook] It's for that next, next, y'all It's for that next, next, y'all [Verse 2] The swimming pools of wisdom like racism is a view It's a system, the concept of race isn't true It's an invention, you're confused about the two It's not a mistake, it's by intention It's on purpose, you don't know your purpose You said, "Damn, brother, that's deep" No, brother, that's surface But you a captive to this rap sh** What's active on the radio really radioactive That rotation got you complacent At ease in your disease They mastered the of ceremony of d**h through the breath of MC's They used to conjure up culture through the art of call and response Call and response Call and response [Hook] It's for that next, next, y'all It's for that next, next, y'all [Verse 3] The paragraphs with the graphics Through these spiritual fonts, we drew understanding on y'all Through the "yes, yes, y'all" It is not just for y'all It's for that next, next, y'all And they spit the whole theme into your jeans Your great-grandchildren are barbed on their head They're livin' in this scene But this p**nographic rap sh** got us livin' obscene Too turned up to turn down That makes you a fiend [Hook] It's for that next, next, y'all It's for that next, next, y'all
