Original TransmissionsHeat. Hey, Heat.
You walk in dressed like judgment day.
Talking smoke like it's holy flame. Name
drop fear then hide your hand. Throw a
stone then blame the glass. You build a
myth out of whispers f. Paint me black
with the words you spread. Call it truth
when it's staged and lit. whole
performance built on counterfeit.
You play games with the frame, try to
rob me in shame, but I see every move in
the script. You make projection on the
wall, trying to make me small, but I
won't wear the mask that you hand to me.
I'm not afraid, I'll say it. You throw
your shadows and calling my name. Game
playing, projecting, twisting the scene.
But I speak the truth of your projection
screen. I'm not afraid. I won't retreat.
I hear the thread underneath the speech.
Smoke and mirror fade and routine. I
speak the truth of your projection
screen.
First comes a smear, then the false
concern, then the crowd gets fed. While
the rumors burn, you call it warning. I
call it theater. A costume of virtue at
round of fever. You move like a queen on
a crooked boy. Stack the deck then
preach reward. Fake moral panic.
Selective grace. Point one finger with
three at your face. You want chaos.
Stress is care. Won't control while you
swear it's fair. But the patterns old
and the mass slips clean.
Everybody sees the play. Everybody knows
the way. You accuse confused and flee
the scene.
I'm not afraid. I say it plain. You
throw your shadows and calling my name.
Game playing twisting the scene. But I
speak the truth of your projection
screen. I'm not afraid. I won't retreat.
I hear the thread underneath the speech.
Smoke and mirrors fade and routine. I
speak the truth through your projection
screen.
Gas light glow in a dead eyed room.
Trying to sell me my own doom.
But I know the trick. I know the trade.
Fear gets loud when the lies afraid. You
can dress it up in righteous light. You
can flood the stage and pick a fight,
but truth don't break when the camera
lean.
Truth cuts through the projection
screen.
I'm not afraid, I'll say it. Play. You
carry navy with a smear campaign game
playing project and feeding the machine.
But I speak the truth through your
projection screen. I'm not afraid. I
stand in view. No m
truth. You want a target. I stay serene.
And I speak the truth of your
projections.
I'm not afraid.
I see the strategy.
I see the angle. I see the end. And I'll
speak the truth till the whole picture.
Yeah.
