[Intro]

I know you're watching, I know you hear what they're saying...

But are you LISTENING?

(Open your mind.... open your mind.... open your mind....)

[Hook](2x)

Everywhere I go, all I ever hear is white noise

On the radio and TV, all I hear is white noise

Poison carried to the people through the white noise

When the time comes, I hope you make the right choice

[Verse One]

Sometimes, the road to the truth is so illusive its confusing, and reality becomes illusion

Canibus said that back in '98, but as we traveled through time and space

We have yet to see any signs of change

We're still being played by the people we're supposed to trust

Somewhere we slipped up and let the Devil get close to us

It ain't hard to tell, the system's corrupted entirely

That's why you see his hand in every facet of society

Almost all of our basic knowledge and behavior

Is based on what we see on TV, and now its major

This generation is so dependent on the mass media

We're quick to accept the bullshit they're force feeding us

All those expensive products we covet

Don Draper knows, advertising is how you program the public

And all we do is enforce it, by thinking its important

To murder each other over the newest Air Jordan's

Same as it ever was, we obey the talking heads

We don't have to eat flesh to become The Walking Dead

Even in the past, they used media propagation

To convince us that America was always a honest nation

We fall for politicians giving speeches with pathos

I'm not above you though, I used to be in the same boat

But I realized the white noise was dulling my senses

Now I'm Roddy Piper looking through the Hoffman Lenses

[Chorus 2X]

[Verse Two]

Some of you might laugh when you hear this

But I'm far from a tinfoil hat-wearing conspiracy theorist

Nowadays Illuminati is a popular topic

But none of these listeners actually used the obvious logic

The law, as it stands, exists to protect the elite

To reinforce the wealthy and powerful, the rest is beneath

Illuminati ain't fake, right?

Then why would they need a secret society when they operate in plain sight?

These corporations do their dirt in the open

And only when you threaten their profits are you worth their emotion

I salute Ed Snowden, the man is a true patriot

He exposed the system, so stop placing your faith in it

Project Paperclip to MK Ultra, nothing has changed

Like putting drugs in our veins, the media has ruptured our brains

You wanna tell me that I'm crazy though?

Can't you hear the subliminal racism from rap radio?

It's nothing but negative stereotypes of black people

So you'll believe they're all drug dealers who act lethal

But they say its only entertainment, ain't it embarrassing?

They don't report the news anymore, they write narratives

And now they're passing laws against net neutrality

In the end, they're gonna take away your individuality

But you're stuck on fallacies, bob your head to the rhythm

Of these rappers staying relevant with occult symbolism

This subject has been covered by a few of my brothers

Like Supastiton and the 1100 Hunters

They tried to warn against these weapons of mass distraction

The Jones' telling us what trends are back in fashion

Fuck your riches, it's the truth that I've sought

I've been biting my tongue for so long they put me on suicide watch

Here's my advice before I pick up the hook:

Turn the TV and radio off, and pick up a book!

[Hook](2x)

[Outro]

"The bottom line is that the government is getting what they have ordered. They're getting what they have paid for. They do not want your children to be educated. They do not want you to think too much. That is why our country and our world has become so proliferated with entertainments, mass media, game shows, television shows, amusement parks, drugs, alcohol, and every kind of entertainment to keep the human mind entertained so that you don't get in the way of important people by doing too much thinking. You better wake up and understand that there are people who are guiding your life and you don't even know it."
