Traphouse

from The Black Swan by Zaimah Beloved

/

about

Traphouse is a musical paradigm shift for the way we look at the way we solve our health and mental health challenges, calling attention to the similarity between elements of society we once believed to be there to solely benefit us through curing our ailments and feeding us food.

lyrics

The food industry
And them Pharmacies
The house cross the street
You a Traphouse
You a Traphouse
You a Traphouse.
Hou hou hou hou house
You a Traphouse, You a Traphouse, You a Traphouse

Poor babies sitting in class can't focus
Dr. said double up the dosage
Prescribing kids dope is just hopeless
No coping for broken folk
Insurance misanthrope
This system sure is broke.
But its masked in mass media
Victims of under informed procedures
They say it makes a life
A whole lot easier turns out
You only made a whole lot greedy
You eat it you need it you buy it
They sell it ain't free to ya
Add to headaches
They want to chemically heal ya
Derived from a laboratory
Half the story
Whole foods is your glory.
You can barely sustain
When you should've just claimed
Your gifts from the land
God is a medicine man
But messing with man your just hooked
Line, sinker, pan, cooked


The food industry
And them Pharmacies
The house cross the street
You a Traphouse
You a Traphouse
You a Traphouse.
Hou hou hou hou house
You a Traphouse, You a Traphouse, You a Traphouse

They invest in the culture
To turn you into a freak and
Hitting every club, get the love you was seeking
Pulling up on dubs, sexin thugs, STD then
Head to the doctor for a cure to ya weekend
One things for sure
Doctor definitely will tell you
Theres a new pill on the market for you
But if it's safe, he can't say, he can't sayyyy.
Long as you don't
Breathe or have a heartbeat you're okay.
The fine print, mind it
Stop the burn, kill ya liver
Why this chemical learn it makes ya problems bigger
And of course your gonna be
Back at it again
Back at all the looseness
Back to trends back to sin.
The cycle just continues
Forgetcha spiritual menu
You'll just get a new prescription
Missin ya conviction
Whatcha solve all your problems through
and the place that you running to
Is a trap house

High fructose corn syrup
Genetically modified foods
Don't worry
I promise they got a pill for it
All they want is your money honey
Even if they gotta kill for it

The food industry
And them Pharmacies
The house cross the street
You a Traphouse
You a Traphouse
You a Traphouse
