[Verse]

Automation, regurgitated news to harm the nation

Reverberated views are tools used to guard the stations

Hard to face it, but if we don't take it to the basics

Operation stays in place with hatred as the basis

Never knew my IQ would increase by losing TV

Makes sense as the spin cycles are constantly on repeat

CNN says the NSA is here to protect

GTFO or be KIA these acronyms gone be our death

Tabloids are always near to assuage

With the sphere of influence, you’ll adhere to a cage

Forcible debt or the imparting of fear to the slaves

You feel inured so the scandals appear to amaze

Entertainment tells us breed so we feed the machine

Sex tapes, fake beefs, we have no reason to lead

This revolution won’t be televised, I pray that it’s soon

Until then your prime objective: obey and consume

[Hook]

Automata

Ain’t exempt because your income or your alma mater

Different sentiments but still we’re just the common fodder

Infamous the lies they’ll feed us and will call em honest

It’s dissonance but we ignore it for these lauded products

[Verse]

Sacrificin sanity for the ratings they must accrue

Corruptible, no substitute for the subterfuge suffered through

Hip hop was the last bastion so they infected it

Injected with subliminal messages backmaskin

Depleted vision and hedonism distracts masses

Succumb you’re haphazard, a typical black slackin

Interest lies in menticide beamed from cellular obelisks

Ominous monoliths useful source for all reconnaissance

With force ratiocination on course for abolishment

We barely cognizant still Wetiko attacks our common sense

Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars, wavelengths are parasitic

It’s apparent that they are virulent if you dare to listen

Brought us devolution and intellectual pogroms

Then frame your history as reducible to a montage

Married to the beast, nuptials born in sin

Cleanest conflicts are the ones that you don’t know you’re in
