Brain Washers Lyrics - Blackalicious

Tryin man, Im tryin', lies and lies aint buyin 

Where do I go, where do I go? 

Tryin yes, Im strivin, lies and lies aint buyin 

How does it go? 

Walk to a time when minds was one 

Came into creation as itself, mankind was born 

Step into the eye of the storm, survive as pawn 

Casualties of evil men, slidin the blinders on 

Lies will spawn, hey, are you conscious what side youre on? 

Is the total story told or is it they hide you from? 

Why are we, on the brink of murderin more innocent? 

Now we slide, were patriotic and so militant 

Get ya ride on, rise on, take a look 

They done even takin righteous laws, rewrote the books 

To benefit the prize they got they eyes on 

Minds run rampant, to be revealed when the proper time comes 

Brain washers 

Tryin man, Im tryin', lies and lies aint buyin 

Where do I go, where do I go? 

Tryin yes, Im strivin, lies and lies aint buyin 

How does it go? 

Brain washers, its when you think how they wanna think 

Speak, how they wanna speak, livin in defeat 

When you dont wanna question what they teach, as the truth 

With no proof, with the fear of burnin in eternal heat 

When your programmed not to be your own man, but a sheep 

Bein heard as they word it, so you think it aint free 

When you sleep in a deep sleep, standin on your feet 

When your beat makin ends meat, raw, thin and they see 

Now your labeled obsolete, workin for relief [Incomprehensible] 

In the heat on bare feet, smile, showin off your teeth 

Good grief, its a [Incomprehensible] how they work it 

And they jerk it, while they surf, plus the surf keeps 

The [Incomprehensible] underneath the brain washers 

Tryin man, Im tryin', lies and lies aint buyin 

Where do I go, where do I go? 

Tryin yes, Im strivin, lies and lies aint buyin 

How does it go? 

Tryin man, Im tryin', lies and lies aint buyin 

Where do I go, where do I go? 

Tryin yes, Im strivin, lies and lies aint buyin 

How does it go? 

Tryin man, Im tryin', lies and lies aint buyin 

Where do I go, where do I go? 

Tryin yes, Im strivin, lies and lies aint buyin 

How does it go? 

{You just keep playin', can you bring that level up in my earphones? 

And you bring their level up in my chairs, 'cause Im playin' with sticks 

And Im drownin' 'em out, so if you can give them more of this 

Yeah, you can bring that in even more, bring up} 

{Yeah, you guys play 

Yeah, thats perfect 

Sounds of science 

Kool-Aid, Chemistry, Arrow}
