Blackalicious Featuring Ben Harper - Brainwashers

Brainwashers
It’s when you think how they wanna think
Speak how they wanna speak, Livin’ in defeat
When you don’t wanna question what they teach, as the truth
With no proof, with the fear of burnin’ in eternal heat
When your programmed not to be your own man, but a sheep
