DESENSITIZED
VERSE 1
TIME'S RUNNING OUT SO WE DECLARE WAR
DON’T WANT TO OPEN YOUR HEART I’M GONNA KICK DOWN THE DOOR
YOU THINK YOUR LIFE IS A GAME THEN I THINK THAT’S A SAME
WHEN THE CIRCLES BEEN COMPLETED YOU AIN’T GOT NO ONE TO BLAME
I’VE COME IN JESUS NAME I’VE COME TO SMOTHER FLAMES
THAT MIGHT BURN YOUR FLESH I DON’T DO THIS FOR FAME
CUZ IN THESE LAST DAYS I’M GONNA FIGHT FOR SOMEONE’S LIFE
AND IF I LOOSE MINE I’M GOING HOME TONIGHT
YO WHAT’S THE INDUSTRY EVOLVED TO
IF I HAD TO USE A SIMILE TO DESCRIBE IT I’D SAY IT’S LIKE BELLEVIEW
CRAZY BETTER YET I THINK IT’S INSANE
AND THEY WON’T STOP TILL THEY PERVERT EVERY CELL IN YOUR BRAIN
AND NO MORE USING SUBLIMINALS A SECRET CODED MESSAGE
TO HIDE THE REAL MEANING THEY COMES RIGHT OUT AND SAYS IT
LIFE IS ALL ABOUT MONEY AND SEX AND VIOLENCE
THAT’S WHY YOU GOT KIDS JUST WILING
TAKEN ARTILLERY IN THEY SCHOOLS KILLING THEY CLASS MATES
THINKING FROM REALITY THEY GOT TO ESCAPE SO THEY POP IN THE CD OR THE DVD
AND THEY MINDS GET PROGRAMMED GRADUALLY
AND THEY FRONT LIKE IT DON’T AFFECT THEM YAH THEY IMMUNE
TO WORDS AND PICTURES THAT ARE SURE TO BRING DOOM
AND BEFORE THEY EVEN GET THE CHANCE TO REALIZE
IN TIME TO THE DARK SIDE THEY'VE BECOME DESENSITIZED
(CHORUS)
WHAT’S GOING ON YA’LL
WE MUST OPEN OUR EYES TURN OUR ATTENTION TO THE SKY
THE WAY THIS WORLD IS PROGRESSING DON’T ACT SURPRISED
WE’VE BECOME DESENSITIZED
VERSE 2
ARE YOU IMMUNE TO THE THINGS WHAT’S GOING ON AROUND
I SWEAR THIS WORLD AIN’T NOTHING BUT THE DEVIL’S PLAY GROUND
IF IT WASN’T FOR MY LOVED ONES THAT’S UNSAVED
I WISH GOD WOULD BURN THIS WHOLE WORD UP TODAY
AND GO BACK TO BEING ELOQUENT DO YOU THINK IT’S RELEVANT
THAT HE’S COMING SOON CUZ THIS WORLD IS DOOMED
YOU TRY TO KEEP YOUR KIDS SAFE IN A LITTLE COCOON
BUT I HEARD A GIRL GOT MOLESTED IN HER OWN CLASSROOM
CAN’T EVEN READ THE AKRON BEACON JOURNAL
WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT MY WIFE AND MY TWO LITTLE GIRLS AND WONDERING
WHAT THIS WORLDS GONNA BE LIKE IN ABOUT TEN YEARS
YOU GOT KIDS HOME SCHOOLED CUZ THEIR PARENTS ARE SCARED
YOU GOT THE MEDIA GIVING TROUBLED TEENS IDEAS
AND GOT KIDS AT THE AGE OF FIVE WITH NO FEARS
YOU NEED TO SEARCH YOURSELF THROUGH
DO YOU GET THEM SAME CHILLS THAT YOU USE TO OR DOES IT EVEN OCCUR
OR DO YOU FEEL LIKE ANY MORE THAT THIS LIFE’S A BLUR
AND YOU WONDER WHERE’S THE END FROM EVERY THING DISTURBED
DOES YOU HEART HURT DOES IT REALLY TAKE YOUR BREATH
DO YOU REACT THE SAME WAY OUR HAS THAT FEELING LEFT
WHEN YOU HEAR A TRAGEDY DO YOU EVEN CRY
WONDER WHY OR HAVE YOU BECOME DESENSITIZED
(CHORUS)
VERSE 3
EMCEES ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR RAISING YOUR KIDS
AND THAT’S PRINCIPLE IS TRUE FOR ANYONE IN THE BIZ
AT HOME IS WHERE THE REGULATIONS NEED TO BEGIN
TO MANY PARENTS WANT TO BE ONE OF THEIR CHILDREN’S FRIENDS
CUZ THEY DON’T WANT TO BE THE BAD GUY
WHATEVER THEIR KIDS WANT THEY GIVE IT TO EM
AND RESPECT GETS RUINED
ACCIDENTALLY POP IN ONE OF THEY DISCS THROW A FIT
CAN’T BELIEVE WHAT YOU HEAR WHOSE MUSIC IS THIS
IF YOU ONLY NEW WHAT’S OUT THERE
YOUR KIDS ARE NOT PREPARED
THE TRAPS HAVE BEEN SET
BY THE ENEMY BET
AND THE MESSAGE REBEL
AGAINST YOUR PARENTS REBEL
AGAINST SOCIETY REBEL
AGAINST AUTHORITY REBEL
ONE DAY YOU NOTICE A CHANGE IN YOUR SON’S PERSONALITY
AND END UP ON SALLY JESSIE
CRYING TELLING HER AND THE CROWD ABOUT YOUR SON LITTLE MITCH
WHO PUNCHED YOU IN THE STOMACH AND HE CALLS YAH AND HE CALLS YAH
YOU NEED TO SWITCH
DON’T BE AFRAID TO SAY NO
WITHOUT WATER AND LIGHT HOW ARE THE SEEDS GONNA GROW
JUST ASK THE PARENTS OF COLUMBINE IF THEY MIND
IF YOU LIMIT YOUR KIDS ACCESS FROM GETTING ONLINE
(CHORUS)
