[Intro]

Yeah


[Verse 1]

First of all, shout out everyone the government can't control

The paper or Facebook or breaking news on the radio

These platforms are becoming propaganda machines

They promote what they believe in or disagree and delete

It's for the safety of the people? I got issues with that

Why? Could look it up on Google because Hitler said that

I'm speaking my mind, I got social media trippin'

If I got freedom of speech, y'all got the right to not listen

They think censorin' the right-wing's the right thing to do

'Cause the owners of the platforms have left-wing views

I'm not republican or liberal, I'm searchin' for the truth

And they're not givin' us a choice, the information been removed


[Pre-Chorus]

I wish they'd tell us why

There is something in the sky

Not just tell us that we're fine

Well, they paint Hell as Paradise


[Chorus]

Don't believe the lies the TV tells you every night

And don't believe the hype 'cause they want everybody blind

I can't be a brick inside your wall

And I can't be a number by default


[Verse 2]

Shout out everyone who's tryna make sense of it

They report fake news and then they hide all the evidence

Shout out my Trump fans, they treated as criminals

'Cause the internet's primarily controlled by the liberals

We get one perspective, the rest neglected, suppress expression

We're not respected, don't get represented

Censorin' the truth is like what lynchin' is to justice

You're deciding what's acceptable for us before it's public

That's not caring for our safety, that's perpetuating narratives

You're scared 'cause information makes my generation dangerous

Manipulating global points of view, this shit is mind control

Selectively presenting me with facts so my design is flawed


[Pre-Chorus]

I wish they'd tell us why

There is something in the sky

Not just tell us that we're fine

Well, they paint Hell as Paradise


[Chorus]

Don't believe the lies the TV tells you every night

And don't believe the hype 'cause they want everybody blind

I can't be a brick inside your wall

And I can't be a number by default


[Bridge]

The truth don't hurt as bad as darkness, the facts will light the way

The fire won't burn unless we spark it, so light those flames today

Leave the couch in your apartment, keep both your hands raised

We'll end the war their lies have started when everyone's awake


[Chorus]

Don't believe the lies the TV tells you every night

And don't believe the hype 'cause they want everybody blind

I can't be a brick inside your wall

And I can't be a number by default

Don't believe the lies the TV tells you every night

And don't believe the hype 'cause they want everybody blind

I can't be a brick inside your wall

And I can't be a number by default
