iRobot

Everything is systematic and automated

We can't breathe freely

What happened to our free will and what happened to our creativity?

Trapped in a system and made identical

We are society's victims and it's sometimes slyly our fault

Practically Robots

We are cloned to look like the next man

I can promise you that wasn't God's plan

Because as long as I stand you've got to understand

we are all unique

We are designed differently,

the ambition/our purpose slightly differs from one another

Even from your sister or brother

Look deep into your soul and forget about cars or boys and girls for one sec, forget about the clothes or how or when you're going to get the next Pay Cheque and tell me what you live for.

We live in an environment where change and differentiation and variation is discouraged and it starts right off from primary school.

They try and unify us by what we wear instead of how we are.

They brand us like we are foreign cars. They try and tell us shine bright like stars but little do they know they hinder us from expressing ourselves, which makes our souls a tad bit dark

We're losing our born identity

And it's not just the uniform

It's the way we conform to the way society and technology transforms at its optimum and prime

We are conformers in disguise

Technology is developing rapidly

Almost to the point where we can't keep up

And it sucks because we don't realise the disadvantages

Sometimes I feel like saying Suck the rules and regulations

Hearing rumours about breaches of privacy and invasions

That they wanna track our devices for our locations

And it includes the little pigs in the station

With their dumb investigations

My bro was being spied for months cos they believed he was banging F or somethin'

Luckily they unjustifiably bagged him when his mum wasn't in

what did he do tho

I still thank God he was innocent

But like I said, sometimes it's slyly our fault

Cos we aren't alert and we're just slumbering

We lack that free spirit that runs wild

Instead all we care about is getting high and drinking spirits til our mind goes wild

While we focus on trapping cos some of us had tough childhoods and some watched Fairly Odd Parents and knew about that Timmy Turner, now Bob Bill Ade and Timmy only care about wearing designers or carrying burners

Or going to public places trying to assault one another

Like the incident that happened on 19/07/2016 in Hyde Park

But we have the audacity to scream

#BlackLivesMatter

Deep it we've gone from dressed in Kangol to now trapping in the Bando...

Speaks volumes, that's real Baseman

But you're putting your work rate into the wrong thing my g's

No wonder why your soul's diminishing

Cos we care about image instead of the state of our hearts and the empires in our state of mind that we are using our estates as battlefields and it's actually us destroying the beauty of it.

A robot apocalypse

We are causing suicide and we are causing genocide with our twisted minds and tortured hearts

Look at where we are

Please people wake up

If God made us in the likeness of his image

Then this is the only image we should die for

Instead of the dirty pixelated images our mind has framed as ER

We definitely need clean hands and a pure heart

But some of us have turned into red handed mechanical beasts that slaughter just to claim approval from one another but reality is we notice the inner monster we see the system failure, somewhere we know there is an error cos we don't see our hearts when we get intimate with the mirror

Maybe it needs a jumpstart

I look around and all I see is robots
