Apathy

Apathy - The Villain lyrics

rate me

[Intro: Clip from Lady In The Water]

I tried to tell them about you, I don't know if I did the right thing. I don't know how they're gonna react.

[Verse 1:]

Keep the money coming, keep it so filthy

Keep your brain greedy, that's how this world built me

Picture Genghis Khan, picture Megatron

Now picture BP, picture Exxon

Picture presidents, dead ones, alive ones

Black ones, white ones, devils in their eyes ones

Picture priests, picture the preacher, picture the prophet

Picture popes, picture police with padded pockets

Picture parents in a picture-perfect town with a pinch of pedophilia that tends to sneak around

Think of politicians, they making a killing

And then they wanna turn around and call me a villain?

Picture devils and demons with disguises

Smiling with eyes tatted on their closed eyelids

Picture handshakes that most never notice

The picture's always been there, it's simply how you focus

[Verse 2:]

This ain't trap music, this ain't frat music

It's moshpit shit, get your skull cracked to it

This ain't devil music, it's just the study of

It ain't the murder weapon but it's the bloody glove

This is the thesis to show you who the beast is

The propaganda professors would never teach this

Picture people that will profit off religion

Now picture physicians who profit off certain prescriptions

Picture principals parent-teacher conference

ADHD and all that other nonsense

Psychologists will talk us out of all wisdom

While vaccine shots give children autism

Our community leaders mislead us

With laws that'll take away our 9mm's

Picture men who'll say that they speak for Jesus

I'll believe that shit when Hell freezes

[Verse 3:]

Lifers in the booth, snipers on the roof

Picture military personnel that like to shoot

Picture heroism, fill out your application

Picture terrorism, picture assassination

Picture pistols that pop instantly

Picture silencers that muffle the sound of gunshots efficiently

They say a picture's worth a thousand words

Now picture a thousand pictures of a mushroom cloud about to burst

Picture cloudy skies on the day that Howie died

Picture metal detectors inside Canarsie High

Picture a newborn baby with the gas mask

Picture a New York skyscraper avalanche

A cameraman is kidnapped by the Taliban

Decapitated they sent his head into Pakistan

Picture the gruesome Twit videos and pics

Picture triple-six, picture the villain that live within

[Outro: Clip from Lady In The Water]

A boy in the Midwest of this land will grow up in a home where your book will be on the shelf and spoken of often. He will grow up

With these ideas in his head. He will grow into a great orator. He will speak and his words will be heard throughout this land and throughout the world. This boy will become leader of this country and begin a movement of great change.He will speak of you and your words. Your book will be the seeds of many of his great thoughts. It will be the seeds of change.
