Machines

"Its interesting because, um, you know, these instruments were designed for people to use, for PEOPLE to use..."

'Right'

"You know, its just a tool, another tool...the way, the way an axe is a tool, an axe can be a tool to cut wood & build a house, or it can be a tool to slaughter your neighbor...y'know?

People blame machines very often for...saying 'oh, its the machines fault!' How can it be the machines fault? We have to plug it in! The machine doesn't do anything but sit there until we plug it in...it doesn't plug itself in, it doesn't program itself....yet!

'It's on the way though!'

"It's on the way!!" *Laughter*

Verse

Look, hold on...lemme,
hold on...lemme

Let me, remind myself I gotta watch some skies,
though its a perception, try to open up wide, yeah
I feel the, vibe grow strong like the ties to the tribe,
we stay rising to the top, we stay live, we stay woke
shit'll turn ugly if you don't go slow, uh
age of information, gotta watch how it flow,
homie, what good is food for thought, if it ain't homegrown?
watch your step while you carry your own,
wait a minute, ey.. let it switch, real quick....

my hypothesis on how to find the way to the truth,
is never mind what they do, that prime time voodoo,
they can't, alter your mind long as they can't find you,
that's why i merge with the background, fool, my solution...
dancing in the key of life, in the heat of the night, uh
breathing in sunlight, regardless
if i'm a product of Genesis & the the-o-ries of Darwin,
i'm a child of that Love Supreme with some dreams of finding it,
tryna, keep my socks clean, my energy pure, hey
before dawn, I had to weigh these dreams,
in real life, that's the price you gotta pay to be free,
lately, I been realising there's more layers to the scheme,
writing's on the wall, some shit I can't read..yeah
dark clouds descending on us like lo-custs,
still might be ok, as long as we don't let go of,
the wheel, see the machine wan' control us,
step your Glen Jones up, say "I am somebody"

i am somebody...
say i am somebody...

i am somebody x 5
