lyrics

verse 1

what if I told you you could distrust the government
and still not believe all the bullshit that others coming with

what if I told you your suspicious rants are just that
and not enough data to consider so they just fall flat

what if I told you every claim must have its own merit
biases is baggage that will not make evidence apparent

it seems you’re dragging down the conversation with this current
wave of paranoia so it hampers you from ever learning

what if I told you you suffered from dunning kruger effect
so experts in any given field you won't respect

I bet you think that all your debunking is valid
but I see nothing with balance just a bunch of word salad

just a ballad of misconstrued notions
overstatements and speculations that rile up your compromised emotions

Look I understand the world is scary but is latching on to every conspiracy theory really necessary

Chorus
What if I told you none of the things you say expose truth
it’s quite the opposite homie...they just expose you

your paranoia informs ya... what you think is true
is only a reflection of the fear and you don’t have a clue

what if I told you you’re not a truth seeker
you calling people dumb see you’re not that bright either

I think you need a breather…till you figure this out
and really think about it all before you open your mouth


verse 2

what if I told you our physical senses are not infallible
in fact we’re easily fooled... our memories are malleable

subject to be altered by the passage of time
and other factors that contribute to us changing our minds

and if you think that I’m lying go and study up on neuroscience
see why your reliance on eyewitness claims is not guidance

so when people say they saw a ghost or UFO
apply a skeptical tone and see how conversations go

what if I told you you’re practically unbalanced
opinions are corrupted cause you’re factually challenged

what’s worse is that you hardly ever seem to care
about the sources of your information when you share

they say that I’m not fair..because i scrutinize to brutalize
and label every foolish notion just a pack of stupid lies

But if you' want to hear a sorry i apologize
I wouldn't hold my breath cause you'll be waiting for a long time


Chorus
What if I told you none of the things you say expose truth
it’s quite the opposite homie...they just expose you

your paranoia informs ya... what you think is true
is only a reflection of the fear and you don’t have a clue

what if I told you you’re not a truth seeker
you calling people dumb see you’re not that bright either

I think you need a breather…till you figure this out
and really think about it all before you open your mouth
