Welcome to the world, baby boy, I’ll paint you red and white and blueThe indoctrination starts as soon as you come out the wombPretty quick we’ll make you stupid with curriculums at schoolAnd if the classroom doesn’t do the trick, we’ll make you watch the newsPick your team, right or left, pick the red pill or the blueYou can vote, but even if you win, still everyone will loseDon’t forget to buy designer because Gucci makes you coolWe prioritize material belongings over truth

Get a job that you can’t stand so you can buy some cancer foodGo overseas and die for freedom, there’s some oil we could useOur democracy exists so that you think that you could chooseBut our algorithms make you do what we want you to doWhat’s the problem, you’re depressed? Society has you confused?We got medication for you that you’ll probably abuseGo get married to a lady who also don’t have a clueAnd pump out a few babies that are just the same as you

Welcome to the system, everyone’s a victimDoesn’t matter if you’re black or white, it hates you allHere inside the system, violence is a symptomFighting for what’s right, but somehow everyone is wrong

Welcome to the system, everyone’s a victimDoesn’t matter if you’re black or white, it hates you allHere inside the system, violence is a symptomFighting for what’s right, but somehow everyone is wrong

Welcome to the world, baby girl, I’ll paint you pink if that’s okayWe’ll encourage self-destruction through the music that you playWe divided all the men by tryin’ politics and raceAnd honestly, it’s workin’ awesome, so for you we’ll do the sameNever teachin’ you to love yourself, inject you full of hateObjectify your sexuality then blame you for the rapeAnd weaponize the differences that make our men and women greatAnd just to screw with you, erase the genders, everyone’s the same

We’ll empower you with rights to vote and fight for equal payThen have the men turn into women and you’ll fight for them againBut you thought you had it figured out, but everything has changedWelcome to the system, ….. please enjoy your stay

Here’s a Bible and a bottle of the cheapest booze we makeFind a man who can take care of you to fill the holes we madeBuy a house and settle down, fulfill your duty, procreateAnd make a couple babies who will also do the same

Welcome to the system, everyone’s a victimDoesn’t matter if you’re black or white, it hates you allHere inside the system, violence is a symptomFighting for what’s right, but somehow everyone is wrong

Welcome to the system, everyone’s a victimDoesn’t matter if you’re black or white, it hates you allHere inside the system, violence is a symptomFighting for what’s right, but somehow everyone is wrong

Welcome to the world, everybody, I’ma paint you black and whiteI’ma make you hate each other so that everyone will fightI’ma give you all religion, let the righteous find the lightBut I will also give you science to oppose the Word of ChristAnd I’ma give you borders, they’re imaginary linesIf you cross them, go to war and win when everybody diesAnd I’ma give you money that you’ll value more than lifeAnd let the one percent have everything while you fight to surviveAnd then I’ll give you politics, I’ll call it left and rightAnd while you divide yourselves, I will conquer both the sidesCan’t you see? I’m the system, my whole purpose is divideWhat you choose will never matter because everything is mine

Welcome to the system, everyone’s a victimDoesn’t matter if you’re black or white, it hates you allHere inside the system, violence is a symptomFighting for what’s right, but somehow everyone is wrong

Welcome to the system, everyone’s a victimDoesn’t matter if you’re black or white, it hates you allHere inside the system, violence is a symptomFighting for what’s right, but somehow everyone is wrong

Welcome to the system, everyone’s a victimDoesn’t matter if you’re black or white, it hates you allHere inside the system, violence is a symptomFighting for what’s right, but somehow everyone is wrong
