Life Sentence

They want us chained up, locked in the matrix
Living in the twilight zone, nothing makes sense
Keep the snake in the basement or awaken
Stray away from the demon or partaken

I'm politicking on the beat, left and right wing
Blue or red pill put you to sleep, it's all the same thing
Believe in everything they say, do as you're told like a drone
Get a loan to buy a home, just understand you'll never own
Get that bag, pay taxes while you're smiling and call it life
They treat you like you brain dead, let 'em know you still alive
You crazy when you out they mind frame, they put you in chains
Zombie apocalypse, no longer spirit remains
A valued member to society, a brainwashed slave
Earn a living, pay to die and dig your own grave
Indoctrinate your mind, bodies sick, your spirit lost
The price of a human life, you had to pay the cost
That's the devil, stay away from it, you wanna see a magic trick
Love story, murder mystery or a horror flick
Life is what you make of it, the worst or your favorite
Create your reality, you seasoned so you flavor it

They want us chained up, locked in the matrix
Living in the twilight zone, nothing makes sense
Keep the snake in the basement or awaken
Stray away from the demon or partaken
They want us chained up, locked in the matrix
Living in the twilight zone, nothing makes sense
Keep the snake in the basement or awaken
Stray away from the demon or partaken

Pardon my religious views don't see eye to eye with you
Believe in what you want but act like you got a clue
Nowadays they cancel you when you speak out of line
A rebel in these dark days is really hard to find
All lives matter based on your skin color perk
Totem pole top reaches the light while bottoms in the dirt
A pyramid scheme is designed to crown a king
The queen birth a nation, Mother Natures offspring
God is he but see she my mother brought me here
She did the labor, anticipated pain without fear,
I where my holy ankh so you get the message clear
Follow my own heart in rat race, constantly switching gears
I been searching for the light of truth for many years
Escape the darkness of the world, I cried many tears
In my mind battling demons that want my soul chained
But I'm just as sharp as a diamond, I can't be detained
They wouldn't let me go, I had to break free
Now I'm like a lethal weapon without the safety
I'm not afraid to die, so they can take me
Won't bow down, concede or take a knee

They want us chained up, locked in the matrix
Living in the twilight zone, nothing makes sense
Keep the snake in the basement or awaken
Stray away from the demon or partaken
They want us chained up, locked in the matrix
Living in the twilight zone, nothing makes sense
Keep the snake in the basement or awaken
Stray away from the demon or partaken
