Everyone’s got a hidden agenda watch them push it on you | |
Everyone’s got a hidden agenda don’t pretend not to | |
It’s a battle for your mind and a battle for your pocket book | |
They’ll play on your emotions until your heart is hooked | |
Reel them in tell them what’s your intent | |
No mr. salesman you don’t have my confidence | |
See I’m not sure if I can trust your heart | |
So don’t feed me your lies disguised in sheep guard | |
Everyone’s got an agenda can you tell me what for | |
Everyone’s got an agenda can you tell me what’s yours | |
From the liberal media to the conservative core | |
From politics to the dude trying to play it cool on the dance floor | |
Its human nature runs deep and reeks of secrets | |
No matter how hard you try no man can keep it | |
For a time maybe but one day you’re gonna have to face it | |
And when that time comes you won’t be able to fake it | |
(chorus) | |
Left yourself lying in the dark waiting to be exposed | |
Catch yourself hiding from your heart and what God only knows | |
Smile put on your game face | |
Your death bed awaits | |
And sure there’s grace but it’s going to sting a bit | |
Try to sell it to God and see if he buys your sales pitch | |
Watch them tell you they’re more than their worth | |
Watch them take advantage of the church | |
But then again stepping stones were meant to be walked on | |
They’ll leave and come back once the floor boards are gone | |
And they’re sitting in the basement pondering energy wasted | |
Trying to figure out how to make it | |
Take it to the innocent and manipulate it | |
Job well done religion look what you’ve created | |
Easily slipping easily fading away | |
Easily forgetting why it was that I was made | |
Easily saying all the right things I need to say in order to make it easier for myself to get paid | |
Don’t look at it like this moments of trite bliss | |
This propaganda is lifeless | |
Move at the speed of which light is | |
Fast forward through the time as I write this | |
Now I might not have been the wisest | |
But I put my soul into each line if money ain’t the motive it’s priceless | |
I followed a trend called timeless | |
(chorus) | |
These folks don’t walk it but they go about it and they talk it | |
Now-a-day’s they’ll turn anything into product | |
Merchandise name your price try and turn a profit | |
Even the sacred's been turned dishonest | |
(chorus) |
