Living Through A Screen (Everything Is A Lie)

All the flashin' lights, all the perfect lives Focused on a screen, where everything is a lie Help, don't just slip away Am I still there? [Verse 1] Insomniac, I lie wide awake I'm irate with blind hate, I'm doomed to my fate How much can I take? My murder mind state And when I'm dead gone, don't come to my wake And you won't like me when I get angry The Bill Bixby, original, not Ang Lee Mechanical deity blow up the scenery Robot, autonomous weapon machinery The ache in the armor, they wanna break him in harder They wanna make him a martyr, that's what the pain is a part of We livin' life hypnotized with your eyes in the iPhone Catalogue and the masters that I own Skeleton play the drum with a thighbone Bullet slide in your dome in the crime zone Suck the budgets, construct the puppets Obstruct the justice, corrupted judges, wicked What will be the secret that's hidden from mankind? Wisdom and inner vision religion can't find Needed the operator to give me the landline Diggin' in deeper, begin losin' my damn mind And you're alone [Chorus] All the flashin' lights, all the perfect lives Gazin' at a screen where everything is a lie Bendin' how you think, holds you in its teeth Focused on the screen, where everything is a lie Livin' through a screen, where everything is a lie [Verse 2] Fallin' down, goin' deeper, and I'm hittin' the bottom I'll be the Canaanite sinnin' in the city of Sodom Until my mama see my name in the obituary column And they still will be killin' me like I'm Bill and Hillary Rodham Smoke and brimstones to molten rock You wanna sell your soul? The devil's overstocked Commit a crime, Instagram the photo Feds'll be watchin' in every borough Political rhetoric or Jim Crow Somethin' wicked this way comin' below Pictured by Richard Avedon Is it Minister Farrakhan? And inside of the Rotten Apple, we livin' in Babylon? Need to fit in their narrative or they will remove you When they try to rule you, ruin those who are truthful They use you, they fool you, the voodoo, pazuzu The Hollywood, Hollyweird, who's who and who's new The zombie society, they never been alive As they followin' the blind, walk into genocide And another young one done when the gun blast St. Louis, Detroit, Chi-town, bloodbath Livin' in a wicked world, will it ever get better? 147 kids that were killed in Kenya Paris and Brussels, Orlando, Aurora The church in Charleston, the horror, the slaughter Enforcin' the laws of the border wars Bodies of migrants on the water shores As we enter the Twilight Zone dimension Where they're sure to shank ya, with no redemption The Hollywood Terry Crews is molested in In the era The Apprentice is President LSD, mescaline, human experiment, American idiocracy evident Leavin' a dream of the demon gene, is it an evil queen or Elohim [Chorus] All the flashin' lights, all the perfect lives Gazin' at a screen, where everything is a lie Bendin' how you think, holds you in its teeth Focused on the screen, where everything is a lie Livin' through a screen
