Lyrics Brainwash - Finale , yU

We were born in warm water
Started when pops filled up slot with four quarters
Push forward, you′re born in
Long live the ones who never fall in the trends
We're revolving again, spin cycle
Seen so many others just like you and I
That got bleached but my roots run deeper than that
We interact minglin′ dark and light colors
Brothers and sisters gotta rinse the system
Cause our soul is a heavy load
They make it seem like you got a fold
Neatly, but I was told, years ago
That if you don't ask you never know
It's kinda like the wet clothes left out, begin to mold
Ghetto′s gettin′ bleached now that's serious
Movin′ us out like we some kind of blackteria
And most areas our peoples are lost
We write songs just to even the odds
Who are we? Where are we? And are we all where we ought to be? We have to ask those critical questions. Are you following me? So it's putting those things under the microscope. We have to understand, the basic, fundamental definition or we′re bout to lose.
[Verse Two] [Grap Luva]:
Are now being watched like Black Panthers
So many dead artists and so little answers
They not watchin' the elephants, they watchin′ the ants
When you tell 'em to solve the murder of 'Pac they say they can′t
Deep lies, deception in the bowels of fame
Sex, lies and murder is all a part of the game
Especially when big papers involved
Money movements will always get the problem solved
Expunge the gun charges, leave jail, live large then repeat the crime
Till somebody drops dime
When they bag you, they did what you like, you street trash
But if you got cash then of course your name gets splashed to the media
For the blood, the vamps get greedier
We recognize you′ve just be victimized by the brainwash
Should've known the game′s watched with deception
But don't let it change your perception
There was a brother that came off and said that all the negro spirituals that they used to sing in church, were constructed and put together with the black keys on the piano only. Fela Kuti says "Music is a weapon." How are we gon′ use this thing to do that? As a weapon? When our open enemy already knows that and he's using the music to work against us.
[Verse Three] [Finale]:
They watchin′ your pocket watch rock back and forth
A group of suit and tie guys go behind closed doors
Go to war when they devise new ways they can divide you
Disguise truth and distract the poor
Eyes and ears follow propaganda, fantasy fake
A synthetic world we waste in it's early stages
They figure we ain't got it so we gon′ want it
And when we get it we gon′ flaunt it
Oh it just do what it do
In order to get through it and do it again
I refuse to lose into an illusion reduced by those who infused
The delusion of grandeur in this for they amusement
Confusion from a brand an image a fan can mimic
Hard to find any sense in it
Twistin' it, the kids have a hard time gettin′ it
? Tell the younger ones under
Yeah, the fence ain't as high as it used to be
Malevolent, swingin′ one another like a Bruce Lee movie
Can't move me from the front line, ain′t say "trust"
I'm the cold water tossed on your face, wake up
So if hip hop is something that you are and rap is something that you do, then that needs to be defined. So, if you go to any church, any Sunday, sit quiet and listen to the rhythm of the hand claps and the sisters tappin' they feet. You can go to any village in Africa and hear the same patterns and the same rhythms. Am I right or am I wrong? (Right)
