lirik lagu yu (usa) - brainwash
[intro: yu & bilal salaam]
brainwash… c’mon
[verse 1: yu]
yeah, we were born in warm water
started when pops filled up the slot with four quarters
push forward – you’re born, and
long live the ones who never fall into 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
yo – ’cause our soul’s a heavy load
they make it seem like you gotta fold
neatly, but i was told, years ago
that if you don’t ask, you’ll never know
it’s kinda like them wet clothes left out, begin to mold
ghetto’s gettin’ bleached, now that’s serious
movin’ us out like we some kind of blackteria
in most areas, our peoples are lost
we write songs just to even the odds
brainwash
[chorus: bilal salaam]
it’s just a cold brainwash (we don’t want it)
it’s just a cold brainwash
it’s just a cold brainwash (we don’t need any more)
brainwash
[verse 2: grap luva]
rappers – are now being watched like black panthers
so many dead artists, and so little answers
they not watchin’ the elephant, they watchin’ the ant
when you tell ’em “solve the murder of ‘pac,” they say they can’t
deep lies, deception in the bowels of fame
s~x, lies, and murder is all a part of the game
high stakes
especially when big paper’s involved
money movements will always get the problem solved
expunge the gun charges, leave jail, live large, then repeat the crime
’til somebody drops dime
when they bag you, they deal with you like you’re 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 been victimized by the brainwash
should’ve known the game’s washed with deception
but don’t let it change your perception
[chorus: danedra bilal salaam]
it’s just a old brainwash
brainwash (and we don’t need it no more)
old brainwash
old brainwash (uh, uh, uh)
[verse 3: finale]
they watch 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 youth,
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
(whose is it?) do what it do in order to get through it and do it again
i refuse to lose into illusion produced by those who infuse the delusion
of grandeur in this for they amus~m~nt
confusion, from a brand, an image a fan can mimic
hard to find a sense in it
part~time hypnotist, twistin’ it
the kids have a hard time gettin’ it (i know i am)
you see the bee and akeelah spell we fell under
run and tell the younger ones under ya
the fist ain’t as high as it used to be
malevolent, we swing at one another like a bruce lee movie
can’t move me from the front line and say “trust”
i’m the cold water tossed on your face, wake up
[chorus: bilal salaam]
it’s just a cold brainwash – uh, uh, uh
it’s just a cold brainwash – uh, uh, uh
it’s just a cold brainwash – uh, uh, uh
