Pass the Parcel (Rework)
Too many lies! I beg you people, open your eyes,
The world is deception and disguise,
But we don't question, no whats no whos no whys.
Too many follow like sheep,
Think they're clued up but they're really asleep,
Never know when the end's gonna creep up
But when it does you'll be in too deep.
What do you think? What? I'm like what do we think?!
We're tangled in the material
That includes drugs and drink and beef
And the gash that we link,
But what do we care?
None of that matters anyway, so there!
I'ma do what want, I'ma do what I feel
If you don't like that then fuck outta here!
We don't wanna know,
You can show me the way but I don't wanna go,
Don't wanna move, wanna stay
going to and fro, I don't like thinking, I like my mind slow,
They tell me I'm cool,
I'm the system's pawn and the government's tool,
I think I'm breaking the rules,
But I'm serving the man like I'm some kind of fool
The system's dishing out pars,
I.Q. is spitting out bars,
Back home they're kitting out cars
And reality TV's shitting out so-called stars.
Everyone thinks they can make it,
Why work for a chain? Just take it,
Sell your soul and just fake it,
If you're a girl you ain't shit unless your half naked,
And Photoshop-aided,
But don't worry, you're free and liberated
Yeah, these are the lies that they tell
And everyone buys it as well
So they can rob us of our cash
It was right there but it went in a flash
Yo, they took it with speed
Convinced us that things we don't want are the things that we need
Big up to corporate greed
Always around and you never let us down,
Gamble your funds away, but relax
The poor man's bailing you out through tax.
Who cares if his daughter can't eat?
We live in a system that you can't beat
And as long as our pockets get fatter
What the fuck else could matter?!
Pass the parcel, fully capital-lies,
We're living in a world where another man dies
For the price of a couple chicken wings and some fries,
Where the lies are encouraged and the truth is despised
Pass the parcel, fully capital-lies,
We're living in a world where another man dies
For the price of a couple chicken wings and some fries,
Where the lies are encouraged and the truth is despised
Pass the parcel, fully capital-lies,
We're living in a world where another man dies
For the price of a couple chicken wings and some fries,
Where the lies are encouraged and the truth is despised
Pass the parcel, fully capital-lies,
We're living in a world where another man dies
For the price of a couple chicken wings and some fries,
Where the lies are encouraged and the truth is despised
