lyrics

you feel
what you think is real
but you don't even know what you conceal,
could you take the real you out and reveal,
I bet we'd like you if you let the real you out,
but you don't know who you are
because your shadowed and
self doubt,
all wrapped up like a package
out of a Hollywood shop,
its all for your ego
don't you know
stop
because beauty is earth
and we need a rebirth,
its all about connection,
but we got this onslaught of egos
and rejection.,
put down the ego my friend
it's an illusion a mask,
a defense a pretense,
put down the ego my friend
who are you really
and whats your purpose in the end,
Man.. MTV
used to be
my salvation,
it was the music visual vibrations
coming through the screen
and now the message it is so obscure
and its so obscene
I cant believe
just what these views have seen,
see its Violence and stupidity
has become a way
of making money
for MTV
and its such a
its such a joke to me,
Its total hypocracy,
I mean..
where's the music?
put down the ego my friend it's an illusion its a mask, its a defense its a pretense, put down the ego my friend who are you really and whats your purpose in the end?
