hermitofthewoods – the way it is lyrics

[intro]
this is the mighty hermitofthewoods

[verse 1]
i don’t miss when i spit this sick sh-t with quickness
and hit this deliciousness – i mean business
i’m in this. a witness against the higher cl-sses
and the fict-tious practices that hold back the m-sses
the precedent set by this president is irrelevant
you can’t arrive at settlements with fabricated evidence
but, then again, this kind of thing happens all the time
it’s a sign of the new blind nature of the mind
the kind of design that’s known as self-sustaining
and it’s a crime that there’s complaining
but no investigating
we wait while they manipulate the flow of information
but don’t contemplate the consequence
of lack of motivation, yeah
to get people together and raise a single voice
there’s a line in the sand and you can cross it by choice
or you can go about your business
and never really know
how deep and how far the rabbit hole goes

[chorus]
i don’t know why the way it is is the way it is
it’s just the way it is
but that’s alright, i don’t mind
we’ve all got to try to get by sometimes
i don’t, i don’t know why it’s just the way it is
and that’s the way it is
and that’s alright, i don’t mind
we’ve all got to try to get by sometimes

[verse 2]
i compile versatile styles in the mainframe
to maintain my balance on this awkward terrain
it’s a strain on the system and always instrumental
in the adverse effects – it’s not coincidental
that i’m the first born son, and i’m rising in the east
i’m here to eat, drink, sleep, and throw down on beats
with infinite control over source codes and access
and a backstage p-ss to the process of the press
i’m aligned against the suits who suppress the truth
‘cause there’s proof in the seeds, the stems, and the roots
so dig a little deeper
i know it’s hard to find
but, you can’t defeat a system
if the system’s not defined
there are signs at trace levels, lost paper trails
bought of witnesses and minor details
closed-door sessions and trouble to be found
when the tail wags the dog
and not the other way around

[verse 3]
i’m suffering cognitive dissonance
from heavy meditation
i’ve got this bad taste in my mouth
and it’s not the medications
i’ve been watching civilization give way to kleptocracy
based on philosophies drenched in hypocrisy
there’s got to be some better way to p-ss the days
than to trace this maze thinking: should i be afraid?
because decisions are being made based on ammunition
while my modern positions put pressure on traditions
right now someone’s using shady tricks and tactics
to infiltrate your life in support of demographics
so unless you plan to move
and out maneuver your pursuers
then you’ve surrendered yourself as a viewer
a consumer
so read between the lines and gather evidence
of inaccuracy, coincidence, and hints of government
it takes knowledge of the system
and the rules of engagement
and the role of every player
from the penthouse to the pavement
