"Why 2K? (Nu Metal Napster Mix)"

Rock Remix

It's good to see you Cypher, glad you're back it's been awhile
The future? I don't know if it will make you smile
Technology's improved, we've got AI and the blockchain
People are less racist than they were and that is not lame
But we've still got Nazis and we've still got pollution
Misinformation has prevented that solution
For climate change, check out the class disparity
But we've still got the Simpsons, but no more Weird Al parodies
Remember Limp Bizkit? Well yeah they're still around
The Warped Tour's been retired, it's pretty different now
By the way there was a global pandemic international
And crazy right-wing people all stormed the U.S. Capitol
And video games make more money than the movies
Everything is streaming now it's gotten kind of spooky
We've got phones in our pockets and we're connected
It's kind of good, it's kind of bad
It's about what I expected

Wake him up
Hey Sound Cypher, the remix happened
I found that sound that you like from the year 2000
Wake him up
I just wanna stay in 1999
Unpause, you're stuck on rewind

Why, Why 2K
Why, Why, Why 2K

What about the music industry?
Are you telling me that people buy vinyls of their idols, not a CD?
You can listen with no wires; it comes through a beam?
And stereos, everything around me stream?
And you say Napster's gone. Did what's his face...
Shawn, go on to disrupt more in that space?
There's a huge place like classmates dot com?
And people like to read it on slates in their palm?
You all create videos? I'd take a look
Slow down, what's a cloud to do with a store that sells books?
You said a virus spread fast like California fire
Was it like Melissa? Did it stop emails through the wire?
Do you still email or is simple mail too plain?
ICQ, MSN, Yahoo, or AIM?
Anyway it's gotta be better than SMS
Can you believe there's a limit of 100-some characters of text?

Wake him up
Hey Sound Cypher, the remix happened
I found that sound that you like from the year 2000
Wake him up
I just wanna stay in 1999
Unpause, you're stuck on rewind

Why, 2K
Wh-Why, Wh-Why 2K

Reboots and remixes, what's new, what's the same?
Nostalgia survived, with movies and games
So video games are bigger than movies now, wow
What kind of films are out and what are they about?
Remember Batman? Keaton's awesome for sure
People loved the film so much they made 16 more
Are those the same movies or just identically titled?
It sounds like the 80s and 90s got recycled
IP is king, it's a reckless attitude
Ghostbusters came back and Men in Black too
Is Will Smith still in it? Man, he's the best
His big hit rocked; Wild Wild West
He's had a few hits, uhh, I'll explain later
Bel-Air got a reboot with some gritty real flavor
Sounds like the 90s... well, they were the pinnacle
You can have the remix, I'll stick to the original
So you're going back? That's not a bad idea
Keep working on those tracks, peace man, yeah I'll see ya

Wake him up
Hey Sound Cypher, the remix happened
I found that sound that you like from the year 2000
Wake him up
I just wanna stay in 1999
Unpause, you're stuck on rewind
