"Brainwashed: Manipulation of the Media"
  by Brizzy


Society has been brainwashed and lied to
Would believe the media if he said the sky was green and the grass was blue
He knows that the people will listen to anything he says
They don’t even have the courage to formulate a question to ask
Just ride with what’s told
…The problem is…
Is that the people are not bold
Not bold enough to stand up and ask “What, when or How”
Just roll with the is…
Well what is for now
We all know that things constantly shift
Just as does the continental drift
Society lets him control its way of life
Choose what is or isn’t wrong or right
Live lives controlled by material things
If only they knew, that this was not Dr. King’s dream
He dreamt of integration not material fascination
The issue will continue as long as the people allow
To stop him the people must unite now
Unite against him and his untrue prevarications
And if not they will continue to be lied to
Conditioned to believe his lies are truth
Brainwashed

Yep the media has this way to easily minipulate people because our societies people are stuck between what's real and what they want to be real that they live in there own reality. ;/ educating yourself and standing up for yourself is a solution.. nice write once again ;]

that's the media's job, to over sensationalize certain things based on what they feel like we wanna watch, and even if we don't wanna see it we have no choice because its everywhere you turn, i definitely feel this one
