Tom MacDonald - "Fake Woke"

I think it's crazy I'm the one who they labelled as controversial And Cardi B is the role model for 12-year-old girls There's rappers pushing Xanax at the top of the Billboard But if I mention race in a song, I'm scared I'll get killed for it It's backwards, it's getting exponentially dumb It's more difficult to get a job than purchase a gun Eminem used to gay bash and murder his mom And now he doesn't want fans if they voted for Trump

We're ashamed to be American, you should probably love it 'Cause you have the right to say it and not get strung up in public As children, we were taught how to walk and talk But the system wants adults to sit down and shut up Cancel culture runs the world now, the planet went crazy Label everything we say as homophobic or racist If you're white, then you're privileged, guilty by association All our childhood heroes got Me-Too'd or they're rapists

They never freed the slaves, they realized that they don't need the chains They gave us tiny screens, we think we're free 'cause we can't see the cage They knew that race war would be the game they need to play For people to pick teams, they use the media to feed the flame

They so fake woke, facts don't care 'bout feelings They know they won't tell me what to believe in They so fake woke, same old safe zones They so fake woke, facts don't care 'bout your feelings

I think it's crazy all these people screaming facts, but they fake woke Hate their neighbour 'cause he wears a mask or he stays home Has a daughter, but his favourite artist said he slays hoes Picks her up from school, music slaps on the way home Censorship's an issue 'cause they choose what they erase There's a difference between hate speech and speech that you hate I think Black Lives Matter was the stupidest name When the system's screwing everyone exactly the same

I just wanna spend Thanksgiving Day with food and my family Without being accused of celebrating native casualties We got so divided, it's black and white and political Republicans are bigots, libtards if you're liberal There's riots in our streets, and it's just getting worse Y'all screaming, "Defund the police", y'all are genius for sure They're underfunded already, they're way too busy to work Order food and call the cops, see what reaches you first

Segregation ended, that's a lie in itself That was a strategy to make us think they were trying to help They knew that racism was hot if they designed it to sell We buy up every single box and divide us ourselves

They so fake woke, facts don't care 'bout feelings They know they won't tell me what to believe in They so fake woke, same old safe zones They so fake woke, facts don't care 'bout your feelings

We use violence to get peace and wonder why it isn't working That's like sleeping with a football team to try and be a virgin Politicians are for sale, and someone always makes the purchase But you and I cannot afford it, our democracy is worthless If a man has mental illness, call him crazy, say it silently When country's going crazy, we accept it as society Get sick and take a pill when the side effects get you high You get addicted like these rappers dying fighting with sobriety

Censoring the facts turns our children into idiots They claim it's for our safety, I'll tell you what it really is Removing information that empowers all the citizens The truth doesn't damage points of view that are legitimate They're tryna change amen to a-men and women How'd we let 'em make praying a microaggression? Instead of asking God for the strength to keep winning We cheat to get ahead, and then we ask Him for forgiveness

Feminism used to be the most righteous of fights But these days, it feels like they secretly hate guys I don't trust anyone who bleeds for a week and don't die I'm just kidding, but everything else that I said is right

They so fake woke, facts don't care 'bout feelings They know they won't tell me what to believe in They so fake woke, same old safe zones They so fake woke, facts don't care 'bout your feelings
