Manufacturing Consent

Lyrics

[Intro] Look Yeah [Verse 1: Vinnie Paz] How you get your news? Where it come from? CNN, Fox News what I run from Americans are all political stripes Believe the information they givin' isn't precise Sensationalism and bias You think that any media mogul is pious? Most of y'all are easily persuadable You find that motherfucker on the news relatable? The echo chamber making you insatiable Cultural tribalism isn't sustainable Is you anti-vax? Is you pro-vax? How could you be either one if you got no facts? You think you build a radical philosophy? With the ubiquity of digital technology? Politics and media been bedfеllows forever Creatеd a social reality that I would never The truth and lies not comparative The amount of clicks justify the narrative Time to rethink, redesign and reform Democracy'll only work when the people informed [Chorus: Sample] Brain washing Brain washing (Brain washing, baby) Brain washing (I got a new one) Brain washing [Verse 2: Vinnie Paz] Yeah, I dropped "End of Days", some thought I was crazy But a lotta y'all thought it's amazing You think that I believe every word of it's hazy I was just tryna see what pill you was taking Bohemian Grove or Vatican assassins I studied both for years and I saw the data Skeletons on the moon, that was something I read But I dug a little deeper and left it for dead You gotta do the same, gotta investigate Fact-check, make certain, and authenticate Maybe I presented everything as factual Maybe I gave it to you like it's a manual If I did, that was wrong of me, I'm fallible I take responsibility for it, it was valuable On the other hand, it open people eyes Because I told a lotta truth on there, and people rise And spoke about chemtrails, it was pee from the skies I gave some people the incentive to see through the lies All and all, I would never take the song back I was feeling like no one was listening and fought back Social media is an illusion Think for yourself, draw your own conclusions
