Fly Song Lyrics

I was taught that education is the only way to make it
Then how'd I get so much money inside my savings?
My teachers never saw the heights that I was fucking aiming
Did the man who invented college, go to college? Hm, okay then
Am I the only one that noticed humans on the same shit?
Y'all thoughts are sailing on the same ship
And if that's the case, then that's the reason that you ain't shit
Let me enlighten you my niggas, just let your brain drift
First of all, the best type of marketing is marketing that doesn't feel like marketing
It makes the people feel like they a part of it
And when it's done right, corporations think its marvelous
They feed us these ideas and then we place 'em in our hearts to sit
It's why players are good at getting chicks
It's why Nike is good at selling kicks
It's why Disney is loved by all the kids
Why McDonald's owners are super rich
We too blinded to ever see 'em pitch
See when this happens we take our health, wealth, lives and just hand them off
Thinking that we did this from organic thoughts
I know you seen parents trick kids with candy, toys, and Santa Claus
The same method is used to trap adults
But instead of candy it's with money, religion, drugs and alcohol
Mention that shit and it's gon' arouse us all
I done seen niggas get into fights over cigarettes like a pack of dogs

They get you hooked and then they laugh at y'all

I really hate to break it to you but you're life's being played with
You have not witnessed the world cause you're stuck in the Matrix
