Live in Action
Ok yeah yeah yeah
So if complaining's a waste
It saturates, leaves a bitter taste
They never say get the fuck out my face
But subtlety isn't overlooked, okay
This cage, that's why everything sound the same
All the words on replay
Negativity's the same train
Tracks sway all to the same place
But fuck I'm frustrated
Man obsesses on knowing and understanding
Anecdotal quotes flow as programmed
Population density and cultural standards
Are woefully thrown in the pursuit
Of what's immediately known
The good ol' plan
The one that's so felt out
No one Googled nada, So sad
This divide's rather unacceptable for today's standards
Success requires certain parameters
We've been gifted with techno gadgets, I mean magic
Pens and papers should be replaced with tablets
The same writing action, for aesthetic satisfaction
But the money and paper wasted, think about the planet
Nope, people like the old ways
Me I'm into tech like rappers love fashion
Tomorrow's a playground that looks nothing like yesterday
Said every generation ever, it's history live in action today
Live in action today, live in action today, live in action today
Tomorrow's a playground, I'll learn the rules to this game
Every age fears being replaced, it's only history live in action today
Live in action today, live in action today, live in action today
This odyssey it's odd to me, scoffed at for my oddities
Which probably, is the only reason they call on me
If I'm to be a commodity, I won't be common, the audacity
Looking after means and ends, always practicing
And failure's often the facts I see, so to speak factually
I got to get up and try it again, then get up, try it again
Repetition bores me too friend, but get up, do it again
Prove that you can, if you be scratching your head
Wondering some shit, the internet's got a bajillion
Ways to inherit said knowledge, we in an era
Where skills can be shared with a couple of clicks
See I dropped outta university
Yep that's what I did, learned so much online
Accelerating past the kids with the formal education
I'd say I'm doing mighty fine, fucking up one day at a time
I'm learning how to smile for folk living in denial
A useful trick for life, be an excellent liar in spite
Of the ethical plights, expressed from all sides
Most people are craving the validation that their ideas are right
I'm guilty of this too, takes everything to move my pride aside
But for so long, I lived wrong, strong armed to divide
Yikes, now redemption's my guiding light
Tomorrow's a playground that looks nothing like yesterday
Said every generation ever, it's history live in action today
Live in action today, live in action today, live in action today
Tomorrow's a playground, I'll learn the rules to this game
Every age fears being replaced, it's only history live in action today
Live in action today, live in action today, live in action today
Opinions, a curse and blessing
Individuals stressing their lessons
Their essence derived from preset measures
Founded in texts, that shouldn't be questioned
So when I offer suggestions
Contrary to popular conventions
I find myself ostracized, divisive
Due to poor vehicular selection
The terrain alone is offensive
My mentions, appear oppressive
The select sequesters progression
Forced equity, constantly caressing regression
The collectives, spit negligence
Whilst meddling spells is cast, to who's detriment
Idealogues draw em in like how religion already did
The trap
Tomorrow's a playground that looks nothing like yesterday
Said every generation ever, it's history live in action today
Live in action today, live in action today, live in action today
Tomorrow's a playground, I'll learn the rules to this game
Every age fears being replaced, it's only history live in action today
Live in action today, live in action today, live in action today
So if complaining's a waste
It saturates, leaves a bitter taste
