Young Maylay - The Writing on the Wall lyrics

[Verse 1: Maylay] I know you're fed up with hearing styles old and decrepit We're doing what's next in your hemoglobin With more oxygen brewing than eucalyptus We figured it's our turn to carry the torch with voice maturity Too many lessons missing in these books of history Making the ma** worry instead of be warriors I don't about yours, but my story's real and simple Sending smoke signals with Moses T. and V.I.T.A.L Get this math right, every paragraph I write on Raising like the sun, always giving thanks and praises Amazing to chosen, bamboozling competition Read the writing on the wall and said it's time for manifesting [Hook: Matt Embree] People still fighting and everybody crying, we're trying to get together so we all can start uniting No need to tell the politicians writing on the wall No need to tell ‘em that the writings on the wall [Verse 2: V.I.T.A.L. Emcee] My terrorist tactics are greatly climactic, displayed to the world within verbal semantics That frantically panic the whole Upsetting the set up of old traditional roles And I propose we make a new law Capitalistic society mauled The fallacies that we've been running with fall And no longer we're having our back to the wall ‘Cause all they've been wanting to do is manipulate us into thinking whatever they stipulate Once they eliminate trust and incriminate us for speaking our minds, they're gon instigate wars And calling the puppets for doing their bidding is only inevitable Securing a foreign horizon to take up a claim on a resource that ain't even plentiful And they're calling us radical ‘Cause we don't believe in a fiscal annual Fact of the matter is that if we don't ever wizen, then we will surprise ‘em, reverting ourselves into animals To take it all back from the shattered tatter So let humanity gather, where we're overjoyed within the moment that we finally matter [Hook] [Verse 3: Matt Embree] Can't you read what the plastic people say With billboards in their hands and semi-circles on their faces The key to life is just to buy your fears away 9 to 5 enslavement for 50 dollars a day So I pray to the faith, that we'll believe in ourselves Experience as the teacher, can't learn nothing from a preacher who encourages the paranoia that has struck us all Don't look anyone in the eyes and lock your doors come night fall Till we all been confined to our air conditioned tombs Cubicle to cubicle we're biting our nails down to the cuticle ‘Cause now our mindsets are contorted Distorted, forced to buy into the lies they have purported Like suddenly who you are is determined by your possessions Everything you own will eventually own you If you fall into that single file undead procession We're lifeless at 30, but dead at 75 Chasing the unattainable with a glazed look in our eyes [Hook] [Outro: V.I.T.A.L. Emcee] Yeah, Maylay, Matt Maddux And I'm V.I.T.A.L. Emcee We talking about a revolution here people But we ain't talking about the goods or the mullet toss We're talking about a revolution of everyday life A revolution of the mind, you know what I mean? So once you seen the truth in front of you And you know how to handle yourself better in everyday situations Look, man, we ain't put on this earth to break our backs for somebody else's dream Work for your own, get your own: it's just a fact of life A fact of the matter, and a matter of the mind Make it worth while, yeah, peace...
