A Wake (feat. Slug)

The leader of the drug cultures

The leader of the country

The root of all evils buried deep within the money

Society's a machine a puppet with invisible strings

While we dream the eye in the pyramid sings

The wings we're born with were quickly clipped to fit the form

We're kept warm and senseless, your shepherd's relentless

Every genius was considered a madman in his time

From Jesus all the way down the line to Einstein

And people are so naive to believe

They chose their frame of mind

You're conditioned so you don't provoke

While the plan is in the prime

That's why things like alcohol were designed

I'm not paranoid, you're just blind and that's fine

If you never wanna find out who invented the game

And told you can only use 12 percent of your brain

Nowadays if you believe in aliens you're perfectly sane

But a century ago a thought like that would get you chained

At its beck and call, let's set you all up against the wall

At its will, will even kill or be still my beating wrecking ball

For his enjoyment, we'll toy with what you perceive

Till you not only get the point but till you believe

Burn the books, push the heroine, assassinate the speaker

You need some dream sweetener!

But I ain't asleep no more!

Throw the scientist in prison and legalize free thought

You need some dream sweetener!

But I ain't asleep no more!

Why do you think marijuana's illegal?

Because it's green? Different? And not good for people? (No)

It's chemicals access a dormant circuit of consciousness

Which could potentially change the brains thought process

And why don't the government want you to change the way you think?

Because if you thought about what they do then you might start a revolution

So their solution is to try to stop its circulation

Paying millions a year cause they fear its provocation

They did the same with peyote, mushrooms and DMT

And prohibited scientists to experiment with LSD

They put Timothy Leary in prison because he used it

But the CIA secretly tested it on college students

They stripped the product from the natives and the highly educated

Then put it on the black market so the users would be aimless

With the right guidance, we could benefit from all of the above

But if it's not there, it's just a drug

At the request of his greatness

We filled in all the negative spaces

With void stamps to stand on

Some hands-on experience

Stampede extravaganza cautionary gone and heeded

By the majority of the uprooted seedlings

Burn the books, push the heroine, assassinate the speaker

You need some dream sweetener!

But I ain't asleep no more!

Throw the scientist in prison and legalize free thought

You need some dream sweetener!

But I ain't asleep no more!

At the emperors request

We've undressed all the children

Stripped the process of the consciousness building

At the request of the emperor

We've ventured from the center of the thought

So we can package it and market it to be bought

Alcohol is proven to paralyze the mind

And what do you see advertised on almost every billboard sign?

But wine ain't always the answer, so once upon a time

They flooded the streets with heroine

To stop the rise of the Black Panthers

They keep us doped up and psychologically clamped

The projects is just a concentration camp

Don't say we can't kill the system

Now it's time to shoot

I'll turn my head inside out if I have to

To find the truth

Land of the free

And home of the Brave New World Order

Pour some more fluoride in your water

Land of the free

As long as your freedom don't encourage freedom

And stifle the governments freedom to minimalize your freedom

The leader of the drug cultures

The leader of the country

The root of all evils buried deep within the money

Back when I was asleep I didn't know that dream were fake

But you can't kill me, when I'm awake

Welcome!

To the new arena! Nice to meet ya!

Rule number 1 is

If you got something to say, you better shut up!

Seldom

Will you even see the way we treat ya

Have a choke and a smile and pick your nuts up
