Kanye Told Me to Tell You This


I tried to go around and wake up the people Show them how the system is so fucking deceitful They trapped your mind with ideas of right and wrong On the highway to hell and you just ride along Maybe I can set you free if I write a song But it seems that I was way too woke The higher power heard every word i spoke They came to take control, they came to take my soul They came in and snatched me up, put a bag over my head and threw me in a hole I woke up tied down in a chair in front of black TV. Men in white cloaks walked in and said they were happy see me They said don't worry this is the best for me. Then they pulled out sheet of LSD With a ton of acid on my tounge I could feel my pineal gland starting to hum Asking traumatic questions about my past I didn't know how longer it would last They broke the will of my conscious Black all around me, every thought was just nonsense Step 1, complete... Psychosis Now on to step 2 the hypnosis The T.V turned on and they started showing me things War, rape, enslavement, everything power would bring With highten sensibilities I had not choice but to listen They whispered into my ear... This is your mission Tell the lie as if it was true, and you better not lie about the truth Then they let me go and said good luck with the change I knew I was no longer insane because they had took over my brain.
