lirik lagu the valley city – alternative facts
[verse 1]
alternative facts, misleading you
messin’ with the medium
keepin’ the people down
at the status quo, leavin’ em
with no choice, and no voice
and nowhere to go
for answers, checks and balances
cheque books will challenge the truth
for what we don’t know, can’t be used
to attack the power structure
sh-t, people abused, for standing up
speaking out, kicking up a little doubt
we ain’t on the right path
time to peep another route
seems like we got a problem here
without a solution
don’t let ‘em turn our free press
into their paid pollution
through confusion; exclusion
the “affluenza illusion,”
abusing the system everywhere they can
and you can’t
revolution’s what we probably need
or else it’ll be the same old archival
agenda driven sh-t
powerful people and their rivals
will go to great lengths
to destroy the perception of truth
to get what they’re after
issa disaster, twenty-first century savage
the rapture
chaos peaks demand
put the cash in hand
if you control the supply
mess up the market on command
we can’t stand by and just let it all happen
gotta stand up for ourselves
because they want you to abandon
the pursuit of truth
always be asking for proof
if it sounds too good to be true
be careful what you choose…
[hook]
this message is brought to you by
those who wish to profit from the lies
they try to discredit all fact as fiction
blurred lines, keep us all blind to the mission
this message is brought to you by
you don’t need to know
so just stay in line
got you wadin’ through clickbait
celebrity gossip
time to stand up, and take back
the power we lost, kid!
[verse 2]
this goes out to those that choose
to question the news
or refuse to buy the line of the day
never blindly believing
every word that people say
cuz it’s way too easy to get caught up
and led astray
hey – we’re livin’ in spin
each cl-ss with its own cycle
the news never stops
unless ad revenue drops
then it’s survival, by reporting the viral
sensationalizing the downward spiral
whatever it takes to distract
dismantle my rivals
don’t let a billionaire convince you
that he cares about your issues
keep questioning
what you’re hearing people tell you
we can get through, even if it’s a struggle
gotta resist the dumb-down
flex your knowledge like a muscle
don’t let ‘em hustle you
push hard, for that transparency
can’t count on accountability
gotta make it tough for them to be
pushing empty promises, lies, makin’ deals
behind closed doors, in-camera
greasy palms, squeaky wheels
listen for the whistleblower
from inside the machine
and prepare yourself
for when they put up, the smokescreen
can’t trust anybody now
cuz agendas are plentiful
“just to get by,” when push comes to shove
morals are bendable, expendable, undependable
but at least they’re, mendable
gotta be sure, we don’t fall
to the incomprehensible…

[verse 3]
the crazy part about today is
if enough celebrities say it
enough people might believe it
and they all might start to treat it
as the truth…despite a lack of proof
uncouth, unmoved by the presentation of fact
they parachuting
making leaps of faith
jumping to conclusions
illusions, distorting information
who is really losing?
it’s the people, not the one percent
tellin’ you they know how ya feel
from a high-rise suite
overlooking the hills
it’s a bitter pill to swallow
but the world’s a business
driven by interests
personal, political, suspicious at worst
criminal at best
hard to digest, and not detest
the situation, but we gotta coalesce
and come together
find a way to make it right, unite
let the powers that be
know that we’re down for a fight
keep your alternative facts
i’m here for the real thing
if you don’t stand for nothing
you’ll fall for anything
like how we’re taught the west is best
the model for others to follow
don’t let them trick you today
then take away your tomorrow
whether it’s trump or some other chump
who’s trying to feed you lies
remember the “bad guys,”
ain’t always the ones
you’re taught to despise…
