Main Flow - Mainstream Media lyrics

[Chorus: Main Flow] Exciting and superior, writing the inferior Talking about idols while we're fighting out in Syria It's getting scarier, courts out to bury ya CBS and FOX news reporting in your area From corporate America to places where the gangs hang Radio and television, how we gonna change things NBC and ABC is looking like the same team Manipulating media to sell it to the mainstream [Verse 1] So here we sit, slumped in the city we rot s**ing up sludge leaking out the idiot box They pity us not, never tell us truth Clever and cute, they plant seeds and sever your roots They cover meaningless nonsense and leave us waiting Never talking about the coffins that FEMA's been making That topic's off limits, proceed debating They'll confuse you on purpose to increase the ratings You watch that plasma daddy brought home with him And now you stay inside with James Stockholm syndrome Evil empire needs you feeling worthless and scared Because for them to succeed, they need you nervous, impaired But we're not sheep, and we don't take kindly To being abused by those in whom we've put faith blindly Almost everything we know is controlled by the big 6 They target market the heart, your soul is the business [Chorus] [Verse 2] They laid the plan and it came to life But nobody gave a damn so we paid the price And now no matter what channel it's the same advice They're blatant lies, they pulled the wool over the nations eyes And not one of you can tell the difference, they revel in it You fell victim to this hellish system This whole world has the devil in it But the people don't believe it till they see it on television They abuse their authority And use it to intimidate the nation so we stay in conformity They're doing wrong and I'm not surprised It's been far too long we've been asking why They confuse the priority And use it to manipulate the people and to sway the majority The news is on and they're telling lies So unplug the signal, the truth won't be televised [Chorus]
