Things are changin'
Things are changin'
Changin' now
Now
Changin' now
Uh, things are soon to be changin'
The way that we consume information's making humans enraged
And turning people who used to be complacent into
Agents of chaos, computer age miseducation
Internet switched up the rules of engagement, there's no
Face to face, just some dude in some basement
Sayin' shit that used to mean that you'd get your face hit
Now it means you can find a crew to be insane with
They distort and confuse when they reportin' the news
A tickin' time bomb, they shorten the fuse
Algorithm reinforcin' your views, who's at fault? (I don't know)
The brainwashed readers or the leaders of the cult? Uh
Lot of players in the rat race
Who collects the checks when you payin' for that ad space?
They sell fear like tobacco and beer
Soon as the check clears they pack up and disappear
Things are changin'
(Got the whole world in the palm of your hands)
Things are changin'
(But beware of what you don't understand)
Changin' now
(New ways that they can tell lies and spread hate)
(New tools that they use to eliminate)
Now
(Old face with a new disguise)
(Don't let 'em control my mind)
Changin' now
Things changing for the worse while things changing for the better
Racing with the weather, racing for the cheddar
Brazen and disheveled
We afraid that our potential participation in rebellion might erase all the pleasure
Addicted to the string that we hold from within
Tied to the fear that if we let go [?]
Predicated our hatred of [?] was intrinsic
[?] such as ourselves but that [?] was a fib, oh my
Things are changing but the script the same, I know why
I got some info that if I told you just gon' [?]
Truth hurts when it indicts all you was
But who gon' quench your thirst when all the water's mud?
A tight narrative's one hell of a drug
Pace of change one hell of a slug
But when all the levity's been spent
You either gon' hide up in the Hamptons or [?] in the legacy of Fred
That's as simple as it gets
Things are changin'
(Got the whole world in the palm of your hands)
Things are changin'
(But beware of what you don't understand)
Changin' now
(New ways that they can tell lies and spread hate)
(New tools that they use to eliminate)
Now
(Old face with a new disguise)
(Don't let 'em control my mind)
Changin' now
