lyrics

Verse I:

Its a brave new world, it’s 1984
the thought police are here kicking down your door
come into your house, make pre-emptive arrests
let me stress, this is real talk, no empty threats
way past the warning signs, yo we’re living it now
don’t be scared, be prepared to maybe get out of town
watch what you say, who you hang around
the surveillance state is here right now going down

No conspiracy theory, the theory has long be gone
if you know what’s going on, then you know I’m not wrong
the evidence is evident in all the ink that they print
read between the lines, they want you to think what you think
they’re polluting your minds like what you drink from the sink
causing your spirit to shrink, third eye to blink
on a brink of a digital mind control state
third eye on the mind and you’re find the home plate

Chorus:

Black uniforms, black guns and batons
phones tapped email too, yeah it’s on
tanks in the streets smart cam in your face
this evil Klan leaving this land in disgrace

Black uniforms, black guns and batons
phones tapped email too, yeah it’s on
tanks in the streets smart cam in your face
this evil Klan leaving this land in disgrace

Verse II:

A shadow government, yeah they hide in disguise
commercial media, wants you buying the lies
all these new gadgets, people dying try
now drones fly by, that’s the eye in the sky
xbox smart cam linked to the net
scanning your face what you think you gonna get
how you much do you trust these people that you’re giving
digital DNA, networks and finger printing

The new religion of consumerism is a prison
a new tradition of superstition and supervision
through a prism you lose you vision and intuition
the television wants you to listen like a computer system
don’t be a victim, your will’s your ammunition
resist the system and assert your position
these politicians, need to take a depositions
subjecting men and women to facial recognition

Chorus:

Black uniforms, black guns and batons
phones tapped email too, yeah it’s on
tanks in the streets smart cam in your face
this evil Klan leaving this land in disgrace

Black uniforms, black guns and batons
phones tapped email too, yeah it’s on
tanks in the streets smart cam in your face
this evil Klan leaving this land in disgrace

Verse III:

It’s called government cause they’re controlling your mind
thoughts manifest and take a stroll down your spine
Like the Jesuits, they want your soul inside
burning Witches at the stakes like the olden times
But we’re in the future Now, the information age
Uprising with communications aides
This is dance music for the revolution
foiling these plans for the evil institutions

Mainstream artists are just not critical
everything out the radio, is pop digital
Facebook posts could have you locked up for lyrical
it’s the new era of the thought criminals
See these devils, they want to install their thoughts
when it be us, who should call the shots
Direct Democracy, where we’re all the boss
this is my message in a bottle like a molotov

I’m having visions, of another holocaust
and premonitions of a world where all is lost
but we can stop it if we give it all we’ve got
sacrifice if need be, stand tall on the cross
stand up for one another, don’t call the cops
community peace keepers on all the blocks

You see we can’t trust the cops,
they’re committing the crimes
when the target the artists
who’s spitting the rhymes

You see we can’t trust the cops,
they’re committing the crimes
when the target the artists
who’s spitting the rhymes
