Caskey - Bad 4 Ya lyrics
rate me(This another ad for ya, everything bad for ya)
(Psychology)
This another ad for ya, everything bad for ya
This another ad for ya, everything bad for ya
we done had enough of that
This another ad for ya, everything bad for ya
we done had enough of that
This another ad for ya, everything bad for ya
yo let the television develop my vision
this one hell of a prison that I am standing inside
capitalism, capitalizing on my condition
every time these ads all circulate im makin decisions
and being taught what to choose
being taught to consume
fear is all they ever promote inside of the news
and I'm confused with they motives, defused with the bogus
and locusts inside the field, it aint necessary to grow it
I got family at home, everybody need the newest shit that's comin on,
they are comin on to me like a tour bus groupie
tryna hop inside my hooptie on the low
they thinkin the life I'm in is a movie
they are programmed, I am from the land that is no man's
bumpin nasty Nas, and some slow jams
my eyes on the low hands, in the coke cans
these commercials enticing
they the start to the circle inviting me (to keep your eyes on the screen)
Watch everything, watch, watch everything, watch everything, watch everything
keep your eyes on the screen
Watch everything, watch, watch everything, watch everything, watch everything
keep your eyes on the screen
Watch everything, watch, watch everything, watch everything, watch everything
keep your eyes on the screen
Watch everything, watch, watch everything, watch everything, watch everything
This another ad for ya, everything bad for ya
we done had enough of that
This another ad for ya, everything bad for ya
It's psychology, someone owe me an apology
I usually aint concerned with they policy
but honestly this rewriting my whole mainframe
it's like I gotta purchase just so I can maintain
what's the verdict on life? are we to be appraised and then forgotten?
and why we always gotta be slaves to someone's pockets
Decide, is you gon' live a life consuming materials or be the one who can stop it?
Keep your eyes on the screen
Watch everything, watch, watch everything, watch everything, watch everything
keep your eyes on the screen
Watch everything, watch, watch everything, watch everything, watch everything
keep your eyes on the screen
Watch everything, watch, watch everything, watch everything, watch everything
keep your eyes on the screen
Watch everything, watch, watch everything, watch everything, watch everything
This another ad for ya, everything bad for ya
we done had enough of that
This another ad for ya, everything bad for ya
"Television is not the truth! Television is a God-damned amusement park! Television is a circus, a carnival, a traveling troupe of acrobats, storytellers, dancers, singers, jugglers, side-show freaks, lion tamers, and football players. We're in the boredom-killing business! So if you want the truth... Go to God! Go to your gurus! Go to yourselves! Because that's the only place you're ever going to find any real truth. But man, you're never going to get any truth from us. We're all your know! You're beginning to believe the illusions we're spinning here, you're beginning to believe that the tube is reality and your own lives are unreal. You do whatever the tube tells you. You dress like the tube, you eat like the tube, you raise your children like the tube, you even think like the tube. This is mass madness, you maniacs! In God's name, you people are the real thing, WE are the illusion! So turn off your television sets. Turn them off now, turn them off right now! Turn them off and leave them off. Turn them off right in the middle of this sentence I'm speaking to you now, turn them off!"
