Zoned Out

• Written by 

man im all zoned out man I'm all zoned out
I'm just tryna figure out
man im all zoned out man I'm all zoned out
I'm just tryna figure out
 
I've been zoned out, just tryna figure out
exactly when we lost our sound
looking around, i just see these clowns
imitating each other for the crown..wow
but maybe thats what happens in a system
where we caught thinking
if we get some income we gon live a lil different
man stop tripping we all victims caught in the same prison
so all we see the money that green
danged before us making us believe
if we get a degree then we'll achieve
all the riches we seek.. please
thats why I'm stuck up in the lab
with the pen n pad ready to just lash and attack
and escape from this trap this whole movement in fact
cuz i refuse to be a puppet in a system
that only favors those with certain pigment..tation
to control this nation, further causing segregation
even tho we told it doesn't exist why dose racism persist
hate that enlists the killing of my sisters and my brothers
simply for the hatred of they skin color
i wonder, could it be cuz they fear
the end of their control is near
all we gotta do is persevere
and make it clear we won't be controlled by fear
naw, that aint our story we standing for glory
so sorry for those who aint ready for the journey
but we gotta stand strong for those without voice
people who don't have a choice
just victims following the noise step by step
they led into debt a tainted mindset that only regress
any progress they've made in this game of chess
stress clouds my mind all zoned out
 
man im all zoned out man I'm all zoned out
I'm just tryna figure out
man im all zoned out man I'm all zoned out
I'm just tryna figure out
 
man I've been zoned out, boy floating in the clouds
thats why i smoke this loud
need to roll that J try to keep my mind sane
as to not be the same as these other lames
who bring imitation rather than the change
so i use maryjane to help control my brain
so it doesn't unravel out of control
these thoughts that consume my soul
i just wanna stand for something more
something that can shine something thats divine
the hidden treasures in my mind that have grown thru out time
i don't see why
most of us stand confused just misunderstood
with brilliant minds just misused
mis placed trust into a plan that just abuses all of us
stripped of our genius since a young age molded and shaped
to be lab rats in a maze where our only escape
comes to those with the cake, the money the mulla
that this world keeps us fooled bruh
this world keep us fooled bruh
 
man im all zoned out man I'm all zoned out
I'm just tryna figure out
man im all zoned out man I'm all zoned out
I'm just tryna figure out
 
man this world got us fooled up
confused individuals lack of self identity
and its sad to see how we let society
control us entirely
stuck with professions we hate
all cuz we tryna generate
enough money to escape from the financial ladder we're placed
in, sad to see if you think about it
stepping on less fortunate just to make a profit
just so we can put a lil cash in our wallet
man we still all slaves stuck in a cage
only thing that has changed
is we all think we got freedom
in there lyes the problem and it'll take love to solve it
