Generation after every gen, does the ignorance of people just ever stick out to you They say "find no heart, forget your brain, relax a bit Can't seize a pain, should not exist" Replaying in your mind's queue Then the rest just focus on the headlines, propaganda lying out awake Past the bedtime But as long as you keep your hands in mine Struggle love think and preach how everything is just fine Yet things are falling out, the strong like to hide behind a pout Great storm of ideas float no drought Know electric skies will shine brighter in this brown out "Close up your body" "You don't look out for me" "Nowhere in life, sustainability" "Shut your damn mouth, you're not allowed to speak" "Close up your body" "You don't look out for me" "Nowhere in life, sustainability" "Shut your damn mouth, you're not allowed to speak" You know I've been thinking Not trying to force it, but I hope you can let it sink in Cause I We're living on a set from Gen X to Gen Y, must a "Z" remind you of the alphabet Primary instinct, morals that should ground us Live a type of way much greater than our founders More effective than the egocentrics of the past 'Cause I'm tryna make you self aware about your act Shun out all the woke, shun out all the great Shun out all the people who choose to grow themselves Not just themselves, unlike you Anyways "Close up your body" "You don't look out for me" "Nowhere in life, sustainability" "Shut your damn mouth, you're not allowed to speak" "Close up your body" "You don't look out for me" "Nowhere in life, sustainability" "Shut your damn mouth, you're not allowed to speak" Are you really that proud of being all up in the spotlight Said not to be loud if you're the only one crying Waahhh Why are you crying when you blame the masses The same people make excuses in front of the cameras Just cause you're older don't mean you're wiser Just cause I'm younger don't mean I'm a fool for saying what I have in mind You think it's not true Despite But I won't stoop below Are you mad Are you this mad Are you just mad that I'm vocal Let's just celebrate Good people still exist no matter what, combat the hate Let's just celebrate Good people still exist no matter what, combat the hate Your pride Forget your pride Why the pride Too much pride So much pride, baby So prideful
