Fly Lyrics - Pound Syndrome - Hopsin

I was taught that education is the only way to make it 

Then how'd I get so much money inside my savings? 

My teachers never saw the heights that I was fucking aiming 

Did the man who invented college, go to college? Hm, okay then 

Am I the only one that noticed humans on the same shit? 

Y'all thoughts are sailing on the same ship 

And if that's the case, then that's the reason that you ain't shit 

Let me enlighten you my niggas, just let your brain drift 

First of all, the best type of marketing is marketing that doesn't feel like marketing 

It makes the people feel like they a part of it 

And when it's done right, corporations think its marvelous 

They feed us these ideas and then we place 'em in our hearts to sit 

It's why players are good at getting chicks 

It's why Nike is good at selling kicks 

It's why Disney is loved by all the kids 

Why McDonald's owners are super rich, we too blinded to ever see 'em pitch 

See when this happens we take our health, wealth, lives and just hand them off 

Thinking that we did this from organic thoughts 

I know you seen parents trick kids with candy, toys, and Santa Claus 

The same method is used to trap adults 

But instead of candy it's with money, religion, drugs and alcohol 

Mention that shit and it's gon' arouse us all 

I done seen niggas get into fights over cigarettes like a pack of dogs 

They get you hooked and then they laugh at y'all

I really hate to break it to you but you're life's being played with 

You have not witnessed the world cause you're stuck in the Matrix 

Everything we have been taught was all a lie 

Open your eyes, open your mind, and fly 

Man, can't you see we're robots who know not what we doing, we got no shot 

In the real world until we climb out of this ice cold box 

Your whole life has been part of a whole plot 

To keep you at the bottom while they on top, stay quiet, then they won't stop 

They always tryna show us what we don't got 

They do it to all of us 'til we finally break and go cop a gold watch 

Knowing we need the cash for rent 

My ass is sick just thinking about how rich and powerful all these bastards get 

They package ideas like it's oxygen 

They make us feel like if we ain't got it, we fucked and we can not fit in 

This fucking system is not your friend 

And understand they controlling your thoughts cause they got a lot to win 

Niggas get turned away when I mention this 

Ignorance is bliss but I don't give a fuck, I won't censor shit 

The Matrix is real when you invented it 

It's way too intricate for you to ever realize that you fucking simpleton 

I really hate to break it to you but you're life's being played with 

You have not witnessed the world cause you're stuck in the Matrix 

Everything we have been taught was all a lie 

Open your eyes, open your mind, and fly 

Yo, fuck Hollywood, fuck all these reality shows 

Making us feel lame unless we're blowing stacks on new clothes 

Making us feel like we ain't cool unless we have a few hoes 

Making us feel like we ugly, unless we have a new nose 

I see naturally beautiful women get Botox, fake tits 

Fake lips, they so brainwashed and it doesn't make sense 

Focus on your life and the path you're pursuing 

Cause y'all too busy worried about what Kim Kardashian's doing 

Check it, most of this shit that you sheep are watching on television 

Is fake as fuck and is not real, I rebel against it 

It's the Devils business, they just reel y'all in 

If they say it, we do it, yo, I'm tryna tell y'all man 

The system created the stereotype for the Black image 

That's why my people are scared to be different, why don't you get it? 

I'm done practicing these ridiculous rituals 

It's time I become a real individual and just do me 

I really hate to break it to you but you're life's being played with 

You have not witnessed the world cause you're stuck in the Matrix 

Everything we have been taught was all a lie 

Open your eyes, open your mind, and fly 

Use your mind, be yourself 

And, and nobody else but you 

And? in life there's no rules, no rules, no rules 

Fly away 

Fly away 

away, away, away 

Life's to short just live it 

The world's all yours go get it 

Just go and get it, it's beautiful
