Thanks for listening and have a great day!

Rap track about how people are always trying to give their own version of the truth to manipulate you and achieve their own ends.

when someone is assertive you think it sounds nice
they use it on the news as a soundbite
but if you want a truth, you won't find one
just some factoids in bite-sized chunks

distill an ideology in a catchphrase
you'll have some people recite that for days
just ask the man on the street in LA
he's still holdin out for hope & change

we repeated words designed to be repeatable
not stopping to find out if they're deceitful
despicable to those of us who seek truth
think for yourself, move or be moved

your mind is a commodity to be bought and sold
by billboards left on the side of the road
the product on sale is what you feel and think
your heart is a puppet, who's pulling the strings?

planting seeds in soils still virgin to determine
the twisted philosophy of every sleeping person
that's why you've gotta wake up and wake up quick
better to jump out of bed than be shaken out, shit


the truth is not a meme
the truth cannot be seen on a TV screen, DVDs
it challenges you, does battle with you
till you stop and think, could that be true?

do you dare seek when you don't know what you'll find?
persistent, elusive, can not be defined
that still small voice could be just a dream
the truth is not a meme



films use product placement, can't escape it
but do you notice when they make more subtle statements
i saw a movie where the words of the terrorists
were actually the quotes of thomas jefferson's

so when someone mentions him you envision this
a man blowin up a boatful of innocents
there's so many layers, subtlety in grey areas
that's how it can plague us if we're not aware of it

we repeated words designed to be repeatable
not stopping to find out if they're deceitful
despicable to those of us who seek truth
think for yourself, move or be moved

some people invest money to keep the truth hidden
that's why asbestos sickness was a superstition
so many study say cigarettes are a-okay
don't you think we might make that mistake today

take a look, through the veil of complexity
and dare to see something most people never see
force the door, break open the lock for me
see stark before you, truth's dead & naked body



the truth is not a meme
the truth cannot be seen on a TV screen, DVDs
it challenges you, does battle with you
till you stop and think, could that be true?

do you dare seek when you don't know what you'll find?
persistent, elusive, can not be defined
that still small voice could be just a dream
the truth is not a meme


to those who have a critical mind
considering every word, how is it defined
liberate your mind from a false dichotomy
delineate beliefs in terms of probability

classified according to evidence and source
if it has logical support, or is logic ignored

whatever it takes to capture the thought
to all the truth seekers and the true believers
be careful when methods are renewed by deceivers
once upon a time we were viewed as heathens

can't defeat truth as long as truth completes us
it can be so cold to stare into your soul
question everything you believe you feel you know

the price is temporary, the prize is eternity
you're searching for truth, truth searches thee
thou searcheth for truth, truth searcheth thee


the truth is not a meme
the truth cannot be seen on a TV screen, DVDs
it challenges you, does battle with you
till you stop and think, could that be true?

do you dare seek when you don't know what you'll find?
persistent, elusive, can not be defined
that still small voice could be just a dream
the truth is not a meme
