Canibus - The Matrix Lyrics






How can I escape?
Is it too late?
What is our fate?
The matrix, since 1998, I've been trying to escape

Take your pick, use your intellect Bis, ignorance is bliss
This game is a fix, it's a matrix, quick
Val Valerian, he was the first to say the Matrix created by aliens
Cultures interlock, global worldwide hip hop
The beats drop and ya don't stop to rock
Compelling and unsettling, meddling in the sovereign sensation,
We life in a slave driven nation, 36 chambers, three thousand six hundred years of blood sweat and tears, fighting our fears in the matrix
Slow kill slaughter, poison in the water, alpha alligators on river bank borders
First warrior to cross, ate up boss, tried to find him, body parts came up lost
Back track, back to the drawing board, we war with carnivores
And we taking it straight back to the source

Last night I heard the death call ringing
Quietly breathing it was softly singing
It might be blinding but you can't hide from this
All eyes on you black star big screen in the matrix

This whole wide world is one huge prison yard
Some of us are inmates the rest are guards
We gotta' break out!
A huge disguise pulled over our eyes
We're awake but blind

This is just the beginning, user interface uses facial recognition dragnets for a prison
It's a media frenzy, multimedia maps are a trap for the innocent that are media friendly
Crypto currency coins - iPhones and Androids, down the rabbit hole back to the void
Breathe - look around, what do you see?
Nightmares in double vision you struggle to break free
Can't trust what you drink or eat, can't trust what you think or see
Can't even trust going back to sleep, I used to dream of electric sheep
Who stand in line to vote and elect these creeps
Who transformed paradise peaks into sanctuaries on the street
But this ain't what I lined up for, and this ain't what you signed up for
This is torture ya'll, that's what they build a fortress for

The Matrix is real, Enki still battle Enli, or birthright the Merovygian Vrill
Orthodox Catholic Krill, crusade in for the kill, for centuries annihilate at will
Whom the Gods wish to destroy first they make mad, the next thing they do is make people break bad
Negotiation averted, no more fear, destroy the Matrix, then go from there
Start from scratch like Noah's Telomers DNA disclosure, what it is composed of?

    Omg this was so AWESOME! This song is one of the songs that get me super pumped whenever I hear it. It is so empowering to me. It speaks about the restrains of this world making us aware. It definitely is one of my favorite songs ever! Great idea the whole Matrix concept.
