about

Bad news is all around us. I feel like most news is bad or sensational news. Once you're socked up in it, it's hard to get out. Please use your mind and don't let the news control it.

lyrics

What am I seeing
It’s get hard to believe it

Guess we the target
They aiming to brainwash us

Losing direction
We can barely maintain

Truth and news
are not the same thing

Third eye open
I can see its a game

Remember
Truth and news
are not the same thing

The television
Got me exhausted
All I seem to hear is
celebrity gossip

My mind is a mess and they keep
feeding me garbage
All they talking
About Is the trendiest topics


I can see it now
I can see it clear
Bad news sells
Hoping that you got
something to fear

They say whatever
In hopes that the viewerships spikes

Because viewers are really the
the equivalent to likes

They misleading us on purpose
And I hate it
Its all about money
Bring in the numbers for the ratings
Its even online
With drama and click baiting
Foley for entertaining
Lacking good information

Gotta Guard your moment
And your thoughts
No matter where you get the news
Gotta check the source

And don’t get me started on all this propaganda
mind control
And its getting too hard to handle

They thinking im a dummy
But I aint never shook
I get my information real time or in a book

They try to sell it to us
They trying to mess me up

Long as they making the money
Right or wrong
Bad or good


Kinda odd
Having a journalist job
Cuz even when there’s good intention
Man its gotta be hard

You gotta
Keep the audience
So you sell em a story

Make em laugh
Cry
Or get outraged in a fury


Especially dealing lives of celebrities
You do whatever
Even losing your integrity

For the headlines
But trust homey I know
Just to get people talking
That watercolor convo



Ah ah
That odd news I refuse
Forget the clicks
The likes and views
Get a clue


Ah ah
That odd news I refuse
