"Captured" lyrics

"Captured"

Wait up
Stop
Ah

Don't put a dollar amount on the effort I'm giving, my nigga it's priceless
Let's keep it a buck, we see that you stuck a prisoner of your devices
Yes I am alive, I am awake, you are not living, you're lifeless
Stuck in a screen, you think it's a dream, I see this shit as a nightmare

Now you are captured, that's not a caption
That's a distraction, look how you acting
Now you are captured, buying the propaganda
That they sold you, nigga what happened?
Now you are captured
The goal is divide and conquer
The energy is getting stronger
It's all an overreaction time is passing, you have been

Stuck in a cycle repeating yourself, yeah, my nigga I see what it is
Clear as a mirror, they painted the picture depicting the way you should live
Some of you niggas are stuck in a loop, you aloof to the shit that you did
Existing inside of a prison, they gave you a life sentence unaware that it's never ending
It's a sickening cycle, they searching for love and approval of someone's opinion
Unable to think for yourself, you gon' follow the crowd like the rest of the minions
And now they got total control over what you consume, an ultimate dominion
Unable to comprehend that this is capitalism, this shit is a business

Don't put a dollar amount on the effort I'm giving, my nigga it's priceless
Let's keep it a buck, we see that you stuck a prisoner of your devices
Yes I am alive, I am awake, you are not living, you're lifeless
Stuck in a screen, you think it's a dream, I see this shit as a nightmare

Now you are captured, that's not a caption
That's a distraction, look how you acting
Now you are captured, buying the propaganda
That they sold you, nigga what happened?
Now you are captured
The goal is divide and conquer
The energy is getting stronger
It's all an overreaction time is passing, you have been

Get up, get up
Don't sleep, nigga, wake up, wake up
Can't live on a timeline looking for a lifeline, that's a downer
If you open your eyes you could find a surprise that this shit is crazy
Everything is a game, that's the way they made it
Either way, you're gonna lose so the way you play it
Is irrelevant as fuck, do not mistake it
They want your information, once they get it
You trapped and there's no way you're making it out
That's how they play on your insecurities
The like or follow, you addicted to clout
It's a form of mental warfare
That you don't fear 'cause it feel good
Draining your serotonin, if they told you to stop
You couldn't, you still would

Don't put a dollar amount on the effort I'm giving, my nigga it's priceless
Let's keep it a buck, we see that you stuck a prisoner of your devices
Yes I am alive, I am awake, you are not living, you're lifeless
Stuck in a screen, you think it's a dream, I see this shit as a nightmare

Now you are captured, that's not a caption
That's a distraction, look how you acting
Now you are captured, buying the propaganda
That they sold you, nigga what happened?
Now you are captured
The goal is divide and conquer
The energy is getting stronger
It's all an overreaction time is passing, you have been
