Demon Rat Lyrics by BackWordz

Veracity

2017

[Verse 1]
You think you know the ones you should be avoiding
Meanwhile one of your boys injecting the poison
You got folks next to you faking galore
And he giving you money, but you're making him more
A couple false promises, it's obvious that you ain't getting nothin' out of the deal
But you back him forreal
And they've been running your cities for about 70 years
And you keep on supporting because he says what appeals

[Pre-Chorus]
You've got to be out of your mind
You're falling for the okie doke and that's every time
They got a hold on you and it's one of a kind
What will it take to realize that they aren't on your side

[Chorus]
You ignore the truth that's right in front of you
You still believe what you want to believe
What's it going to take for you to realize
That everything is lost and you're to blame

[Verse 2]
I used to be under the spell, I was a dummy, could tell
Now I just know you too well
Now I sit back and look at the fact
That you have never been what you claim to be
You're a fake that's been snaking me
So while you try to guilt trip me to death
I got you out the pictur and I ain't missed a step
Kind of like you never left
So you been feeding lies
But my folks still treat you like the God that you're not
But I'll give you props on that
You got us by the gonads
You're a snake in the grass
Blindly follow you and I can't be mad
Because that's on us, though that's really sad

[Chorus]
You ignore the truth that's right in front of you
You still believe what you want to believe
What's it going to take for you to realize
That everything is lost and you're to blame
We're lost and you're to blame
We're lost and you're to blame

[Verse 3]
Social justice is what they're calling it now
It's more like masked racism, I'm calling it out
Act superior but the empirical evidence shows that you think every other race is inferior though
So let's go ahead and get to the real
Decipher through all the bull and I'll tell you the deal
And I don't give a crap how that makes you feel
Because the one you need to watch is the white liberal
He's a fox indeed
Showing all of his teeth but he's smiling cheeck to check
When will you see
Don't look to him to succeed cause it ain't what it seems
And it's him that's pulling the string

[Pre-Chorus]
You've got to be out of your mind
You're falling for the okie doke and that's every time
They got a hold on you and it's one of a kind
What will it take to realize that they aren't on your side

[Chorus]
You ignore the truth that's right in front of you
You still believe what you want to believe
What's it going to take for you to realize
That everything is lost and you're to blame
We're lost and you're to blame
We're lost and you're to blame
We're lost and you're to blame
