Lyrics

[Intro]
Meditation or medication?
I don't know anymore
Education? Incarceration?
I don't know anymore
[PreChorus]
There's a line, I think we crossed it
No way over, under, or around it
Not the life your mom and pop lived
Arms and legs inside this ride 'cause
[Chorus]
This is modern times in America
Brother got some money and lost his sense of mind
Times in America
[Verse 1]
If you don't got no fun, she walks away
If you don't got no pill, don't knock on her door
She a robot slave to the cell phone frame, she knows it
And I don't know anymore
[PreChorus]
There's a line, I think we crossed it
No way over, under, or around it
Not the life your mom and pop lived
Arms and legs inside this ride 'cause
[Chorus]
This is modern times in America
Brother got some money and lost his sense of mind
Times in America
Sister got some money and lost her sense of mind
Times in America
Batiste
[Bridge]
A tale as old as time
Modern times in America, mass hysteria
Everything blurring on my radio
On my screen, make me wanna go, ah!
[Chorus]
In America
Sister got some money and lost her sense of mind
Oh, America
Ooh, we got some money and lost our sense of mind
In America
[Outro]
In America
In America
In America
In America
In America
In America
In America
In America
