SLAINE - Man Made Ways lyrics

[Intro: The Knife by Genesis] Stand up and fight, for you know we are right We must strike at the lies that have spread like disease through our minds Some of you are going to die Martyrs of course to the freedom that I shall provide [Verse 1: Slaine] It's mind control, they've stolen my mind I used to have the mind of a revolutionary now it's dead Cause the Devil got these images that's dancing in my head If I don't take these pills then I can't get out of bed And I gotta pay the bills so I gotta take my meds That's what the voice says, it was never there before It was another voice that's telling me you're a father, you're a husband The argument is hard to win, it leads to more discussion Every other thought is rushing like it's f**ing water busting I've been sleeping with the TV cause I left it on Pa** out from the Xani bars licking chicken szechuan Broken fingers figure sh** I think it must've kept em gone Otherwise I'm like a ticking effin bomb weapon drawn Pacing 'round the floor freaking every creak I'm stepping on Thought I heard the cops coming no I must've guessed it wrong Flip the stations all around, nothing but deception on I don't know what's real or not, here on planet methadone [Verse 2: Trademarc] Look I've never been mistaken for the social type Overnight mix and match meds and get the potion right Name it, I take it, I took it, I baked it, cooked it and ate it Like God made it 'till I'm crooked Psycho pharmaceuticals rebooted my brain My d**h is stained by whatever's fun, the proof in my veins So when I took it I stare at my reflection like it's throwing threats in my direction Now I look at life and cope like any addict Might be an addict by candlelight Every shade drawn, every day's dawn good and gone as I write You can bet it's like street corner hustling FDA muscle in funnelling cash into new epidemics They usher in ma** produced pain Paranoia that they mask with their lawyers and bra** Next stop poisonous gas, chill the citizen's strain Chain smoke stacks burn us to ash [Hook] We living in them days of the manmade ways They brainwashing us, it's America's plan I'm about to rebel, we all slaves in the system We're dying over money and relying on religion We living in them days of the manmade ways They brainwashing us, it's America's plan I'm about to rebel, we all slaves in the system We're dying over money and relying on religion [Verse 3: Vinnie Paz] I used to have the mind of a revolutionary but it's gone I'm dishevelled, I'm a rebel, I'm a devil with a bomb As I settle every motherf**ing ghetto has a song Put the metal to my temple when I wrestle with Saddam Yeah, you see the mind control divide your soul I rhymed it though in ‘94 but no Y'all ain't listened to anything I was telling y'all About the biochip inside you and impending war I run over you f**ing devils like I'm Mendenhall Overseas they dying young, they sending y'all The cash system is dead, y'all just pretend to ball Glocks and clips, apocalypse repent or fall Do y'all believe in the birth of a nation? I call it control, they call it coercive persuasion Yeah all of them serpents of Satan I'mma build a bomb shelter, only let the persons of faith in [Verse 4: Sabac Red] We live a harsh reality, get our brains washed out with filthy water Caught up in the thrill of boarders walk among the k**ing quarters I form a line of obsessive aggressive ill New Yorkers Who build a fortress on top of bodies with rigor mortis We saw this coming, history repeats and beats its sword The difference is now businesses are center of disease control Diabetes, VDs, cancer, and AIDS Increasing the obesity as if we cannot be saved Faced with their paranoia avoid the call to actions in arms Engaged the act of warriors we all paying taxes for bombs They taxing the farms, the labourers make minimum wage Here in the States them owners sick, they're paying women as slaves It's the beginning of phase 8, new decade and new plot They sit and create plagues, inject us with flu shots Behaviour reform informs away from the norm It's mind control, define your soul decide your faith or get gone [Hook] [Clip from Network] Listen to me because less than 3% of you people read books, because less than 15% of you read newspapers. Right now there is an entire generation that never knew anything. The largest company in the world controls the most awesome propaganda force in the whole world. So if you want the truth go to yourselves! Because that's the only place you're ever going to find any real truth [Outro: DC the MIDI Alien & Crypt the Warchild] *Check one, two* *Avengers Radio still in full effect here* *My man Trademarc's in the back, controlling the phone lines and I understand we got my man Crypt on the line* *Outerspace, Army of the Pharaohs, Official Pistol Gang, Illadelph* *Yo Crypt, what's crackin' man?* *Yo it's good DC what's poppin' big homie?* *Just regulating these airwaves man* *This Avenger Radio sh** is crazy man* *Yo I appreciate that man but yo, heads don't really consider Outerspace a real political group, but I know y'all got your eyes open you know, so we did this track together, "Ain't sh** Changed" *I'm about to get into it right now, explain to the listeners what was the thought behind that track* *Well, we [?] worse* *People still out here struggling, people still out here losing their jobs, so what really changed?
