Flat Facts
We were Kings and Queens
Now we're lying in crimson
So does that mean anything
When we're packing the prisons
I mean, we're unearthing the truth
That's been whitewashed from history
Yet, some still view us as uncouth
Dreams now nightmares of hypocrisy
I see so many things differently
After fine tuning my spectacles
Seeking out knowledge religiously
Transforming his stories into spectacles
Habitual lies disguised as facts
Some of what we think are rights
Are nothing more than just acts
When analyzed under bright lights
Enlighten with some tokes
Swing at deception wit' a bat
Columbus on his voyage boat
You think the world is flat?
Now we're lying in crimson
So does that mean anything
When we're packing the prisons
I mean, we're unearthing the truth
That's been whitewashed from history
Yet, some still view us as uncouth
Dreams now nightmares of hypocrisy
I see so many things differently
After fine tuning my spectacles
Seeking out knowledge religiously
Transforming his stories into spectacles
Habitual lies disguised as facts
Some of what we think are rights
Are nothing more than just acts
When analyzed under bright lights
Enlighten with some tokes
Swing at deception wit' a bat
Columbus on his voyage boat
You think the world is flat?
