Tekst Utworu

[Verse 1]
(To see a black rock band like, um)
(Who the fuck was this, man?)
(Man, who in the fuck is this fucking group, man?)
(What year you talking?)
(Uh, '90s)
(Living Color, you mean?)
(Who?)
(Living Color?)
(Living fucking Color)
(Living fucking Color)
(Find me another ro-, find me another black rock band)
(Fishbone, Mos Def tried to do a rock band)
(Find me another rock band, seriously)
[Verse 2]
We're livin' like we're programmed
Like TV's our reality
We can't escape the program
They only show us what they want us to see
[Verse 3]
Sittin' in my easy chair
I'm barely breathing
Back against the wall
You layin' on me heavy
Like I'm, like I'm
Like I'm your whippin' boy
[Verse 4]
I am the program
On a big screen
You just wanna use me, use me, yeah
And it's a
Limited time offer with no guarantee
I'm just the sucker in this scheme
[Verse 5]
We're livin' like we're programmed
Like TV's our reality
We can't escape the program
They only show us what they want us to see
[Verse 6]
Make me insensitive
My world, my face
Don't care how you feel
The latest gossip in the bozo line
You take up all my time
[Verse 7]
I can say what I want
Unidentified
I don't care how you feel
It's my agenda
I do what I want, do what I want
I don't care who I offend
[Verse 8]
Yeah, America
Yeah, let's get into it
Check
[Verse 9]
Yo, I got authority hatred
'Cause probably the majority's racist
Against the minority races
For the problems to be resolved in the races
Gonna take more than the March on Washington state
Or Al Sharpton's debates
Cops always harass the brothers
They like Clorox bleach, Good for whites, bad for colors
So when they ask to search us, I get nervous
'Cause my gran was shot down by the people hired to protect and serve us
Went from enlightenment to a dark zone
Millions of dumb people walkin' 'round with a smart phone
Everybody dressin' the same, is y'all clones?
Like we're wearin' a uniform
Bein' unique is rare as a unicorn
Refuse to do the norm and just accept yourself
Stop tryna be like everybody else, accept yourself
You free your mind, you do anything that you wish to
Ignorance is bliss, I refuse to be blissful, man
[Verse 10]
I can't wait till it's over
I can't take no more
Got me runnin' in circles
Got to get you out my head
Get you out my head
[Verse 11]
(War declared)
(The US is now officially in an information battle)
(The days of media monopoly are over)
(We are in an information war)
(And we are losing that war)
(I'll be very blunt in my assessment)
