Ash Jetson - I wanna see the future. / Carousel.
00
Copied!
Ridin this ride called life like a carousel
The world run in cycles
Im startin to know em very well
Seems history repeats and repairs itself
Feelin the same hatred and seperation
My parents felt
Lookin round
No one learnin from mistakes
Not realizin
Admittin you're wrong is all it takes
Till then, the chains of the past can't break
Life isnt what youre given
Life is what you make
So im makin a point
To point out injustices
Half us know sufferin
But still dont know what suffrage is
Lady liberty lookin more
Like a succubus
Tricks you into thinkin youre free with
Her seductive kiss
Promises of the american dream
But know
Nothin in life is ever near what it seems
And as quick as you dream
It can turn into a nightmare
You realize youre fightin a system that dont fight fair
Police force, congress
Secret communities
The only way we'll ever win
Is through unity
As long as hate lives, its ashes to ashes
Its left vs right, its antifa vs fascists
So i write every day
Arrange words oddly
Enough, that it might
Get through the head of a nazi
Even if ifs just one
If i can make em think
And question why they hate
Ive done more than my job, see
The pen just an extension of my body
Lexicon game godly
Write code like hammurabi
Hopin the hieroglyphics break through
Your frontal cortex
If we dont change our thinkin
Then we won't see whats in store next...
And i wanna see the future, dont you?
I wanna see the future...
I wanna see the future
Hoppin in and out the past
Like a young lex luthor
Tryna find where we went wrong
So we dont repeat it
But its like records were burned
And now they kept in secret
Orwell shit, 1984
History ain't what happened
Its written by those takin score
So we can't know if shits the same
As the way before
No one thinks anything is wrong
Until the day a war
Breaks out
And by then its too late
Before the hate gets that great
We gotta realize our fate
On a ride called life
Ridin it like a carousel
Round and round
Lookin at differences over parallels
Until we see we have more in common
Than opposite
The end is comin
The future ain't destined
Could be endin and resurrection
So if we wanna see it
Lets start buildin a connection
Like
I wanna see the future, dont you?
I wanna see the future...
The world run in cycles
