[00:08.87] Welcome to the world, baby boy,

[00:10.71] I'll paint you red and white and blue

[00:12.23] The indoctrination starts as soon

[00:13.85] as you come out the womb

[00:14.42] Pretty quick we'll make you

[00:15.50] stupid with curriculums at school

[00:17.08] And if the classroom doesn't do the trick,

[00:18.42] we'll make you watch the news

[00:19.47] Pick your team, right or left,

[00:20.82] pick the red pill or the blue

[00:22.15] You can vote, but even if you win,

[00:23.47] still everyone will lose

[00:24.54] Don't forget to buy designer

[00:25.86] because Gucci makes you cool

[00:27.46] We prioritize material

[00:28.53] belongings over truth

[00:29.58] Get a job that you can't stand

[00:30.91] so you can buy some cans of food

[00:32.23] Go overseas and die for freedom,

[00:33.31] there's some oil we could use

[00:34.63] Our democracy exists so that

[00:36.22] you think that you could choose

[00:37.56] But our algorithms make you do

[00:38.62] what we want you to do

[00:39.68] What's the problem, you're depressed?

[00:41.21] Society has you confused?

[00:42.34] We got medication for you

[00:43.67] that you'll probably abuse

[00:45.00] Go get married to a lady

[00:46.05] who also don't have a clue

[00:47.39] And pump out a few babies

[00:48.71] that are just the same as you

[00:49.77] Welcome to the system,

[00:50.84] everyone's a victim

[00:52.16] Doesn't matter if you're black or white,

[00:53.49] it hates you all

[00:54.55] Here inside the system,

[00:55.62] violence is a symptom

[00:56.95] Fighting for what's right,

[00:58.00] but somehow everyone is wrong

[00:59.60] Welcome to the system,

[01:00.93] everyone's a victim

[01:02.26] Doesn't matter if you're black or white,

[01:03.58] it hates you all

[01:04.38] Here inside the system,

[01:05.70] violence is a symptom

[01:07.04] Fighting for what's right,

[01:07.84] but somehow everyone is wrong

[01:10.76] Welcome to the world, baby girl,

[01:12.34] I'll paint you pink if that's okay

[01:13.96] We'll encourage self-destruction

[01:15.29] through the music that you play

[01:16.35] We divided all the men

[01:17.69] by tryin' politics and race

[01:18.74] And honestly, it's workin' awesome,

[01:20.07] so for you we'll do the same

[01:21.66] Never teachin' you to love yourself,

[01:23.00] inject you full of hate

[01:23.80] Objectify your sexuality

[01:25.39] then blame you for the rape

[01:26.44] And weaponize the differences

[01:27.51] that make our men and women great

[01:28.84] And just to screw with you,

[01:29.90] erase the genders,

[01:30.70] everyone's the same

[01:31.49] We'll empower you with

[01:32.56] rights to vote and fight for equal pay

[01:34.15] Then have the men turn into women

[01:35.48] and you'll fight for them again

[01:36.53] But you thought you had it figured out,

[01:38.13] but everything has changed

[01:39.20] Welcome to the system, bitch,

[01:40.79] please enjoy your stay

[01:41.86] Here's a Bible and a bottle

[01:42.90] of the cheapest booze we make

[01:44.27] Find a man who can take care of you

[01:45.59] to fill the holes we made

[01:46.94] Buy a house and settle down,

[01:48.00] fulfill your duty, procreate

[01:49.32] And make a couple babies

[01:50.65] who will also do the same

[01:51.71] Welcome to the system,

[01:52.77] everyone's a victim

[01:54.10] Doesn't matter if you're black or white,

[01:55.43] it hates you all

[01:56.49] Here inside the system,

[01:57.56] violence is a symptom

[01:58.89] Fighting for what's right,

[01:59.68] but somehow everyone is wrong

[02:01.53] Welcome to the system,

[02:02.86] everyone's a victim

[02:04.19] Doesn't matter if you're black or white,

[02:05.53] it hates you all

[02:06.59] Here inside the system,

[02:07.92] violence is a symptom

[02:08.99] Fighting for what's right,

[02:09.78] but somehow everyone is wrong

[02:12.98] Welcome to the world, everybody,

[02:14.58] I'ma paint you black and white

[02:15.90] I'ma make you hate each other

[02:16.87] so that everyone will fight

[02:18.30] I'ma give you all religion,

[02:19.61] let the righteous find the light

[02:20.68] But I will also give you science

[02:22.01] to oppose the Word of Christ

[02:23.34] And I'ma give you borders,

[02:24.68] they're imaginary lines

[02:26.01] If you cross them,

[02:26.54] go to war and win when everybody dies

[02:28.67] And I'ma give you money

[02:29.73] that you'll value more than life

[02:31.05] And let the one percent have everything

[02:32.35] while you fight to survive

[02:33.45] And then I'll give you politics,

[02:34.79] I'll call it left and right

[02:35.85] And while you divide yourselves,

[02:37.18] I will conquer both the sides

[02:38.51] Can't you see? I'm the system,

[02:39.84] my whole purpose is divide

[02:41.16] What you choose will never matter

[02:42.43] because everything is mine

[02:45.68] Welcome to the system,

[02:47.01] everyone's a victim

[02:48.07] Doesn't matter if you're black or white,

[02:49.66] it hates you all

[02:50.73] Here inside the system,

[02:52.06] violence is a symptom

[02:54.45] but somehow everyone is wrong

[02:55.78] Welcome to the system,

[02:57.11] everyone's a victim

[02:58.43] Doesn't matter if you're black or white,

[02:59.76] it hates you all

[03:01.08] Here inside the system,

[03:02.15] violence is a symptom
