Control Media

From the album System Failure by Scottychams

Intro

Work, consume, sleep, repeat

Yo

Work, consume, sleep, repeat

Yo

Work, consume, sleep, repeat

Control media

Control media

We living in

Controlled media

It’s like

Verse 1

Yo media controls

Political missions of visions

Of descriptions

Of idols and rivals

But I know

That they control the po

At least that’s what I’m told

From the officer herself

She ain’t even worried

Concerned with her wealth

Well, you know what means

These corporations controlling

Everything they backing

They got fake rapport

For support

And they trying to get more

And it’s controlled media

Rockefeller, Rothchild pact

Like crack to addict

I’ve been pushing past it

Got reactions when I said

That we should go for passion

I’ma start rapping

And you can do anything

Gotta aim for something

Realize all the lies they was telling you is nothing

This whole fucking time they was just bluffing

They needed the rhymes

To coincide

For the cosign

Establish

Bad habits

And fund the results

Have fun with their resolve

Cause they ain’t there to solve

They just there to profit off the margins

I can see it so obnoxious now

I woke up and wonder how

I ever got by before inside the lie

But I woke up one day

And finally realized

Bridge

We living in

Controlled media

Controlled media

Verse 2

Yo I tried to hide from destiny

Until I found out

That it would get the best of me

It’s testing me, shit

It could have been my death foreseen

But we living this life

Like more than one time

So have fun right

I do some nights

On something nice

But to all

Controlled media

And alumni

To this lie

Listen

Ambition is going after passion

Like fuck the system

It failed

But now they got you so indoctrinated

That you trying to defend it

And pretend it’s all fine

I know you can see the exact

Same lies from a different side

Look outside the box

Shit you ain’t believe there’s a box

That’s where you stopped and closed your mind

When you can manifest beliefs once you

Outside the plan

You gotta have one to not fall into another’s

System failing so don’t be another runner up

They fucking up

I’m summing up

My vision to the

Victims of the system

Listen

Though I say it spliffing

It’s the truest shit I’ve written

Chorus

Controlled media

Controlled media

Yeah and now

We’re just stuck living in

Controlled media

System failure

No shit it sound ridiculous

The truest shit always is
