John D. Contradiction - Oh Yeah Lyrics

We live in a world where everyone is so stressed out
Depressed, greedy, that shortcuts are glorified enough
To the Point where you start to think its the only way you can make it, I refuse to believe that
Dont try to tell me that we're not here to paint a picture
Like its so outlandish but we cherish scriptures
We're dumbing down what man did, then we play the victim
Once in control we call it system
Once insecurity hits, multiply it and then we list them
Reality hits then we deny and resist them, man
The old me I really miss him
And I still wish that he would listen
Photographic, I can't take its
Automatic, I can't fake it
I planned it, I can't stand it
Can't stand it but I planned it
And they look at me like, and they look me like
Im the dumbest nigga they seen in they life, dumb it down if your seeing right, I hope im saying it right
Sometimes its hard just to muster motivation, time chasing
Were racing, instant gratification, im pacing patiently waiting
No time for angels or satan, make sure dat I finished plating
So you can all stuff your faces, its sad
After you eat, you talk about things you wished it had
Then emphasize all the things that you felt made it bad
When did our lives turn to a cash and a grab
We live our lives and jump from fad to a fad, but always sad and mad
Photographic, I can't take this
Automatic, I can't fake this
Cant stand it, but I planned it
I planned it, but can't stand it
