Yo, they tell you on the screen that the race makes you strong,
But the science been sayin’ they been sellin’ you wrong.
Competition’s toxic, man, it eats at your soul,
Sports hype and workplace grind takin’ their toll.
Inequality kills, it’s a matter of fact,
Stress on the body, man, the data’s exact.
But they hide it, they spin it, they sell you a dream,
Make you blame yourself while they pull the strings.

Television brainwaves, keep you in the maze,
Programmed eyes, hypnotized by the plays.
Ads in your head say, “Better move quick,”
Scarcity lie, man, it’s just their trick.
Shallow over substance, style over truth,
They robbin’ your wisdom, poisonin’ youth.

They say, “Get in quick, ‘cause the stock won’t last,”
But the shelves refill — man, it’s all broadcast.
World’s got enough for every human need,
But greed got ‘em pushin’ that endless feed.
Make products break fast, so you buy ‘em again,
Planned obsolescence like original sin.
Wastin’ resources, pollutin’ the seas,
Just to sell you junk and keep you on your knees.

Rich man sins, gets a slap on the wrist,
Poor man slips, and his life’s dismissed.
Behavior’s shaped by the place you in,
But the blame’s all shifted, man, they play to win.
The system’s rigged, it ain’t you alone,
It’s the soil and the seed that makes what’s grown.

Every channel, every ad, pushin’ you to spend,
Not to heal the world or to help a friend.
They glamorize greed, normalize the fight,
And demonize the ones who can’t climb that height.
Yo, turn off the static, see the bigger plan,
We could meet every need for every man.
But the box in your room keep you blind and still,
While they cash in pockets from your time to kill.

Yo, the science is clear, but the truth is suppressed,
They dress up the lie in a suit and a vest.
Don’t let the TV tell you what’s real,
Break the trance, man, reclaim how you feel.
