Break Away

Break Away

(To Three Six Mafia “Stay Fly” beat)

Verse one:

Everybody knows that you work for the bread
Past that, you sit back ‘till dead then
Everybody knows about the scene in corruption
Palestine sufferin’, politics bluffin’
I see it clearly
And people like me are noticin’ our power
Saying “government, fear me”
See it as it is
Realism kid
If the signs fib anyway, be illiterate
and
We a little bit nuts
But no more than the gerbils in the office
Shucks

I say we set a mousetrap
Play the role of the housecat
Dfind getting’ out that
Evidence so prevalent
Not ‘cuz I said it is, stop poppin’ sedatives

Take action not that Paxil
Hate makes cash but the facts still speak
The way it should be, only listeners teach
Like
Stop that death panel shit every week

See
Illusion breeds confusion
Leaves us stupid, useless stooges
Listen up kids, see the real way it is
Red elephants in bed with the biz
Yea
Listen up kids, see the real way it is
Red elephants in bed with the biz

See us cynics get it ‘cuz we be realistic
We’re burnin’ coal like biscuits
Is this
Too much to handle
Get this
The status quo is business
Our mirror is our hitlist
Put solar power on wishlist
If we fail to do our dishes
This is suicide unassisted

Hook:
Our world is what’s inside our head projected
Trust in life again, but this time make it right
I said
Yea, this time make it right

Verse two:

What, we lost our nerve, now paralyzed
This what we deserve?
Self-terrorized
Naw, we gotta pull the plug
Cut the power
Not about the Jordan’s
You’re affordin’
Our
Feet must march to the beat that we refuse to see

If we’re gonna keep walkin’ at all
Then we gotta let the planet start walkin’ it off
Otherwise we’re gonna get knocked off
Bring a paradigm to a cliff and knock it off
Got addicted, we cannot get off
On our way to the rehab, it’s eleven o’clock
Yea, we talk but it’s all we do
Chit chat, get gas
To the mall we move
Take a deep breath
Like CO2
‘Cuz we heatin’ up fast like miso soup
And I try to keep it ripe for you
But you gotta get it right for you
Not spiteful
And it’s your rightful places too
Without an eyeful of rifle
So we work for the bread
No butter
Try to get a cut of
Cheese, but it’s toasty
Mother
Can’t believe we evolved into a gutter
Orderin’ takeaway
How can I break away?

Our world is what’s inside our head projected
Trust in life again, but this time make it right
I said
Yea, this time make it right
