Propaganda

(album: Gravestones - 2020)

Yeah

First of all, shout out everyone the government can't control
The paper or Facebook or breaking news on the radio
These platforms are becoming propaganda machines
They promote what they believe in or disagree and delete
It's for the safety of the people? I got issues with that
Why? Could look it up on Google because Hitler said that
I'm speaking my mind, I got social media tripping
If I got freedom of speech, y'all got the right to not listen
They think censoring the right-wing's the right thing to do
'Cause the owners of the platforms have left-wing views
I'm not republican or liberal, I'm searching for the truth
And they're not giving us a choice, the information been removed

I wish they'd tell us why
There is something in the sky
Not just tell us that we're fine
Well, they paint Hell as Paradise

Don't believe the lies the TV tells you every night
And don't believe the hype 'cause they want everybody blind
I can't be a brick inside your wall
And I can't be a number by default

Shout out everyone who's tryna make sense of it
They report fake news and then they hide all the evidence
Shout out my Trump fans, they treated as criminals
'Cause the internet's primarily controlled by the liberals
We get one perspective, the rest neglected, suppress expression
We're not respected, don't get represented
Censoring the truth is like what lynching is to justice
You're deciding what's acceptable for us before it's public
That's not caring for our safety, that's perpetuating narratives
You're scared 'cause information makes my generation dangerous
Manipulating global points of view, this shit is mind control
Selectively presenting me with facts so my design is flawed

I wish they'd tell us why
There is something in the sky
Not just tell us that we're fine
Well, they paint Hell as Paradise

Don't believe the lies the TV tells you every night
And don't believe the hype 'cause they want everybody blind
I can't be a brick inside your wall
And I can't be a number by default

The truth don't hurt as bad as darkness, the facts will light the way
The fire won't burn unless we spark it, so light those flames today
Leave the couch in your apartment, keep both your hands raised
We'll end the war their lies have started when everyone's awake

Don't believe the lies the TV tells you every night
And don't believe the hype 'cause they want everybody blind
I can't be a brick inside your wall
And I can't be a number by default
Don't believe the lies the TV tells you every night
And don't believe the hype 'cause they want everybody blind
I can't be a brick inside your wall
And I can't be a number by default
