Mind Tricks
Drake

Verse 1:
Left side claimin' they're the saviors, so divine
But yo, they blind to the grind, tryna redefine
Equality, false prophecies, they stay in line
Yellin' 'bout rights, but they left logic behind
Talkin' in circles, man, they babble, Babylon
Politically correct, but they dead wrong
Burn bridges, then cry when the heat's on
Life ain't a sitcom, this ain't no pontoon
I'm the captain, your rhetoric ain't makin' waves
Preachin' peace but droppin' bombs like crusades
Two-faced, talkin' out both sides of the mouth
Can't claim truth when deception's your route
Callin' for change but never leave the couch
Social justice warriors in a Twitter bout
Playin' victim while pointin' fingers, ouch!
Stuck in their echo chamber, hear the shouts
Bringin' fire, no need for a truce
Your ideals twisted, better call Dr. Seuss
A house of cards, soon it'll collapse
Witness the system implode, perhaps
Call it Mental Gymnastics, gettin' tangled
Can't juggle facts, yo, you got mangled
Fantasies unravel, your utopia's tangled
Burn like a candle, left in the scandal

Chorus:
Mind tricks, illusions ain't so rare
Talking bout freedom, but do they even care?
Mind tricks, twisted, can't repair
False narratives spread everywhere

Verse 2:
They shout diversity, but it's all a con
Groupthink, drinkin' Kool-Aid from a poisoned pond
Cryin' wolf with privilege, sob stories gone
But entitlement, that’s the true marathon
Mad at the world, say it's unfair
But won't lift a finger, ain't self-aware
Got a debt ceiling, and they're overdrawn
Bankin’ on sympathy, they overdone
Preach love, but it's dressed in disdain
A mask so fitting for a masquerade game
Cancel kings, quick to dethrone
Talkin' justice but castin' stones
Virtue signal, like it’s Morse code
Identity politics, bear a heavy load
Equality’s their word, tyranny their show
Glasshouses shattered by the stones they throw
Down the rabbit hole, no Wonderland
Lost in agendas, no master plan
Spinnin' tales, like they Peter Pan
Never growin' up from their Neverland
Hypocrites, their system’s broke
Fabricated truths, vanish in smoke
Painting pictures with invisible inks
Trying to make sense, when they can't even think
Twistin’ the lens, it’s the same old tricks
Mindless puppets in a political mix

Chorus:
Mind tricks, illusions ain't so rare
Talking bout freedom, but do they even care?
Mind tricks, twisted, can't repair
False narratives spread everywhere

Hook:
Witty comebacks for empty words
Fueling the fire, though it sounds absurd
Symbolic jabs, hit hard on cues
Rude awakenings come from these views
Explicit shots, call it a barrage
Taking down illusions, numerous sabotage

Chorus:
Mind tricks, illusions ain't so rare
Talking bout freedom, but do they even care?
Mind tricks, twisted, can't repair
False narratives spread everywhere
