Beef x Mega Beats Lyrics: "As an artist who’s worked on multiple sides of music, TV and journalism – independently – I know for a fact they have researchers that ping and firewall certain disenfranchised individuals who produce dense content, so the privileged can quickly repurpose whatever culture the artist creates to expand their white collar wealth, while simultaneously keeping their digital slave broke and contained. Social media makes intellectual property theft easier than ever. They call this capitalism. They all got cryptomnesia Conveniently It makes it easier For the weak to believe in self They say I ain’t dreaming none Me all original You should believe in wealth, in helps But I don’t see an end in sight And this is why we end our lives You Americans love to plagiarize and lie I said, I don’t see an end in sight And this why we end our lives You cunts love to plagiarize and lie You know me, I invent a flow in every song at least And I don’t sound like who’s trendy, how do I do it? I must be lying, I must be trying to hard as the fascists say Ay, soon as we can track who’s actually creating We’ll show y’all a mass demonstration, if ya know what I’m saying Evolved form, Super Saiyan Saw series, 1 through 80 Ball bearing, your cerebellum All day til it’s all gravy They don’t even know who they are The ones making all of your art They never evolve beyond where they started They just change up their aesthetic and never get smarter When I hear a celebrity speaking It sounds less interesting than birds tweeting Or like, they need a life teacher, or trying on a wife beater, or go to a local night eatery If you think intelligence relates to wealth in this country, you need health Hi, I am what you call help I am the one that you say needs help I pray for the aliens to come down and save us Please take me away Or maybe we can make robots to replace em There’s gotta be a major change They all got cryptomnesia Conveniently It makes it easier For the weak to believe in self They say I ain’t dreaming none Me all original You should believe in wealth, in helps But I don’t see an end in sight And this is why we end our lives You Americans love to plagiarize and lie I said, I don’t see an end in sight And this why we end our lives You cunts love to plagiarize and lie Rights for me? ‘Nah,’ they say, ‘You good, my G’ ‘We ain’t from the same hood, we all know dat’s evrytang’ I remember when I realized I had amnesia And they called it a meltdown, not PTSD I deleted my Facebook, and they went crazy Misappropriating my name every chance they get The latest phase came after DX Everyone around me still getting paid And all of a sudden they’re with The Basement But can’t speak my name outta laziness Y’all fuck with an industry of slumlords, genocidal maniacs, multicolored racists, bodymorphing rapists and don’t mention natives I’m the one rapper who’s actually worked for it Not a donkey, a workhorse I got a plan and a purpose I’m a fan of true versions I can’t stand up for no shoe-in They have multiple personalities getting me fucked up Like bitch, I’m a talented rapper and actor You don’t know what you think actually I pray for the aliens to come down and save us Please take me away Or maybe we can make robots to replace em There’s gotta be a major change They all got cryptomnesia Conveniently It makes it easier For the weak to believe in self They say I ain’t dreaming none Me all original You should believe in wealth, in helps But I don’t see an end in sight And this is why we end our lives You Americans love to plagiarize and lie I said, I don’t see an end in sight And this why we end our lives You cunts love to plagiarize and lie"
