Everything's a lie, everything’s a prison

Everything aside you don't see the symptoms

Everything you try only feeds the system

Everything's a lie, everything’s a prison


[Verse]

The same reason why Lil Pump is eating off us

Is the same reason why Donald Trump is in office

We fail society as a whole

So how can we blame him when our president is a troll?

How can we blame kids when adults are hypocritical?

We say “do as we say, not as we do”, that's the ritual

And Kanye said slavery wasn't amalgam

And two weeks later you niggas still bought his album

I don't trust the po-po or the crack dealers

‘Cause both of them motherfuckers are black killers

Both of them motherfuckers attack niggas

Now they controlling us through our rap lyrics

Everything's a program that's programmed

They program the kids while selling their own brand

If we don't band together they banning us from existence

But you stubborn niggas still show resistance

I'm keeping the distance

The difference is that tension’s what they’re pursuing

Media outlets have outstretched past reviewing

And now the interviewers are interviewing the interviewers

They wanna be stars more than the artists they're in view of

Skewed, basically you don’t want to stand in the place of me

I would never take complacency

At the pace you lead I would ache and bleed

I would take your plea I would shave debris

Make decrees, you want them

How perfect must a black kid be before we feel free to mourn him

Born into poverty, liberation is property

Limitations are properly put in place even I can see

Everything's a bureaucracy, everything from Barack

To the current day cabinet they just look for the cash in it

Educated through YouTube, it's brutal

The literary standard for information is Google, it's futile

The internet is our classroom graduate from your bathroom

And spew stupid shit like a gas fume

Assuming you can make the way

I’mma have faith and embrace my fate

I'mma make way for the days I prayed

I will raise my great and escape your bait

I'mma state what's fake, I'mma stake my claim

Ignore y'all, take my aim

You could build walls, imprison us all

When karma come back you can't debate

I speak for what's pressing and feed from aggression

No need to discretion, I peak when niggas least would expect it

I leaped in the metrics, creeped up with a gleeful expression

A lethal obsession, so even in defeat there's progression

I'm like


[Hook]

Everything's a lie, everything's a prison

Everything aside you don't see the symptoms

Everything you try only feeds the system

Everything's a lie, everything's a prison
