Smoke and Mirrors
Smoke and mirrors
Smoke and mirrors
The grand illusion you see it clearer
Placate the masses bread and butter and the circus to make em lose it
So they wont even notice
Shits so backwards now its looking like forward
Guess that’s what they call full circle
Getting fun now
Two plus two equals whatever
Your trusted government wants to tell ya
And any opinion that differs
Best believe they handed out those scripts to the tv news cameras
Cuz its all just smoke and mirrors
A grand illusion to make us lucid
An easier target of oppression
Predictable as fuck just textbook humans
So im left flabbergasted
Why am I alone in such revelations?
Why is nobody else screaming and waving?
That’s right they got banned for what they were saying
So whys everyone else just going with the prescribed version of reality?
Guess that’s what years and years of psychological conditioning looks like in its non theoretical application9
Generation on generation of the steady decay
Well folks this aint the America our fore fathers made
In fact they warned and tried to protect us from this very thing
Go ahead ignore what I say
Its all fun and games
Heres a token now go play
Smoke and mirrors
As the magician takes the stage
Captivates your attention
So you don’t look away
Whole time diversion tactics succeeding
Whatever may be needed the real reasons
What they neglect to tell you lowly ignorant humans
You don’t argue cuz youre blissfully entertained
Happy to lose yourself in the mirror maze
So when did this happen? When did we choose ignorance in the place of the pursuit of knowledge?
Or was it force fed through our educational system?
Indoctrinated just like our parents before us
Now make sure to be a good little consumer
Parents unaware, most completely oblivious
Spend more time at work than teaching their own children
Let alone reviewing the curriculum
Not a care to dispute it
Im fucking angry
Generally terrified
Frightened
This is literally and Orwellian society
And we are helping them do it
Its all an illusion
All just smoke and mirrors
So when the time comes
You wont fight , you’ll go gladly into that goodnight
Lazy, complacent, ignorant humans
Freedom cant be gifted
Guess they’re just trying to prove it
Its sad to see yall fall for that
Moving exactly as predicted and en masse
Fighting against each other
Because of the opinions youre fed
Your media is controlled
Every single aspect
Perfect propaganda , Goebbels would be proud
Unless he was in that paperclip that was stashed
Trusting everything you are told
Even from the mouths contorted by plastic implants
Celeberties, actors, the pop musicians
The people placed on your screens
A class above which we could only hope to achieve
Because they got rich off of having your best interests
Its all just smoke and mirrors
The deception couldn’t be any clearer
Magician takes the stage and all faculty disappears
Pay not attention to the quiet dissolution
The fall of the first to attempt to do it
Now your freedom’s apart of the performance
Just an illusion of its former glory
Your children and theirs will suffer
For your wonton disregard of integrity and intelligence
Perhaps the final catastrophic extinction event
will clear the earth of our selfish and ugly consequences
Yall celebrate greed like it’s the epitome of human
Well , I didn’t mean to get so dark and depressing
Not usually my style but here it was fitting
Just expressing how I feel
All alone in my head
Maybe I’ll be the next voice to be silenced after I release this
Cant have someone tell their slaves that their masters exist
Especially not when I’m explaining away their tricks
