Brother Ali - Digital Age lyrics

Living in a time where life is cyber
You the type to think that everything you pry
Is your two cents up in a cypher
You just need to quietly admire my desire
Get inspired by a higher form
Of life or just retire a riot's only fire
It's the ingredients inside of you
Wood you, tiger I'm Mike Tyson, I'm iron
Meaning you say you would
When I only say that I am
And my universe is only too adverse
There's no trying
Sci-fi pioneering, scientific tie-in
A falsified environment
You save your life with a right click
You dogs high and mindless on the
Mic and when I'm lying you can stop me then
You're not even excited to recite it

Worlds colliding, your rhetoric is silly
And I ain't hustling, I'm building
Ain't a thing that's built quickly
Could only be, dim see
You could dress it up pretty
But a weak foundation
I could break you with my pinkie
Sniffing up all the blow
Getting your body swole
But, I look inside your eyes and
I can know your hallowed soul
Lying to yourself from the
Moment you press go
You brought it on your own, you're
Only known for what you own, yah
Chain is gorgeous, but you didn't make it
And your drugs are flawless
But you didn't create it
Then your clothes are immaculate
But you were born naked we all die
Our legacy the only thing we take with

Listen now
We're living through this digital age
Even though you ain't locked up
In no physical cage
Still gon' need to see your way
All through that mental maze
Each new innovation puts us
Deep inside a case
Picked up all the scriptures and
I flipped through every page
Looking for some proof that these are
Not the end of days
Every single sacred relevation's
Been displayed
Only thing that ain't been happened yet
The dead have not been raised
You forever passing
'til my paths are made of passion
My intoxicated
Toxic break your thoughts you couldn't fathom
You gon' get the gat, you earned it
Up up and at 'em
Like the first man on that planet
Out the bad shit that done happened

I'm doing really really well, living
In a minute in hell, like it's a citadel
Where the million listeners under my spell
So they couldn't even tell
Anytime the ignorant prevail
I skip bail and and end up tipping the scale
That rude truth still get telled
Keep on lifting up, prevail
My soul, too gold
Too broad to fail and it isn't for sale
Even with the pressure to prevail
I shall not crack like the Liberty Bell
And in the days and months to come
I say it once so listen up well
Y'all are selling nature heaven
For a digital hell
