lyrics

[Verse 1]
I’m technobabblin’, I got a lot to say in so little time
So listen up beautiful people to my next hit rhyme
I’m not a savior, and I’m not exactly Satan, either
When people ask me whether red or blue, I say neither
My life is a grayscale picture set to play on repeat
So keep it flowing like honey, and go on, loop the beat
Once again, I’ve got a ton of things that I’m ready to say
This is My Duality, so you know I’m about to take it away
Social media is the topic I’ve decided to speak about now
Facebook, twitter, Instagram, they’re your gods so bow
They’ve got your minds held hostage in a tiny little screen
And they’ve taped your mouths shut so you can’t even scream
They’re robbers, your sanity and intelligence are at stake
Yet so many people think this topic is up for debate
I’m not about to fall to the crowd and give in to it
Yeah I use some, but I’m not gonna be ignorance’s conduit

[Hook]
Yeah, bow to me, Zuckerberg, you gave the crown to me
Yeah, bow to me, Dorsey, you gave the crown to me
Yeah, bow to me, Systrom, you gave the crown to me
Yeah, let me speak, M-O-M, I’m ‘bout to help you see

[Verse 2]
Do you not understand what the internet is doing to us all?
How our nation’s children are growing egos teen feet tall?
Or do you not care, because they have you so blinded
I lost my mind long ago, and I’m still trying to find it
But it will not be found if someone confirms my fears
That our lives have been one big lie for all of these years
The common folk are just pawns in a global regime
Sorry to burst your bubble, but nothing is as it seems
Now I’m something Uncle Sam is gonna be attacking a lot
Because I make it so obvious that I have a militant plot
To save as many of you lobotomites I can, like it or not
So the government can take a step back, oh, Great Scott
You exclaim because this kid should not be talking like this
Oh you thought we were all suicidal, slittin’ our wrists?
Nah, we’re smart, and we’re rising up against the machine
So better nobody try to stop us, nah, don’t try to convene

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
I’m angry not because I’m a youth that’s stuck in revolt
Or because I choke sometimes like a jammed up colt
I’m angry because you’re pushing my generation down
We are the next leaders of America, mayors of every town
We’re the future governors, and also the next presidents
But that can’t happen if we’ve got nothing left to represent
Stop acting like you’re holier than thou, you ain’t heaven-sent
You’re the worst of the worst, no room for you to repent
Technobabble is the name of this song, so don’t get confused
When you change the channel and see Mind on the news
“Local Louisville Youth Arrested For Terroristic Threatening”
I’m just speaking the truth, I’m not selling methamphetamine
I got no time for the hard stuff, my rhymes are harder anyway
And I’m not afraid to go toe to toe with any politician any day
I’m so tired of always hearing the same old stupid sob story
And if you listen real close, you’ll hear an angry mob forming
