Common Sense | Communism (1994)

Das EFX - Jussumen (Pete Rock Remix)

KELLEN DE VOS - GRAND SLAM

[Verse 1 – The Setup] 
They call it madness when you dream too wide, 
When you say the sharks should step aside. 
When you ask why hunger still exists, 
While billionaires buy diamond wrists.

[Verse 2 – The Vision] 
You say, “Let AI run the show, 
Coordinate the global flow. 
No bribes, no wars, no sleazy spin, 
Just logic guiding from within.” 
They laugh, they scoff, they roll their eyes, 
But deep down, even they realize…

[Verse 3 – The Truth Beneath] 
That madness isn’t dreaming peace, 
It’s letting cruelty never cease. 
It’s calling theft a market trend, 
And letting greed decide the end.

[Verse 4 – The Madman’s Inheritance] 
So call me mad, I’ll wear the name, 
If dreaming justice earns me shame. 
But when the world begins to shift, 
And AI gives the globe a lift, 
They’ll say, “He saw it all back then, 
The madman with the cosmic pen.”

[Verse 5 – The Primary School Illusion] 
We all remember being small, 
Believing magic ruled the hall. 
The teacher felt like royal law, 
And every rule inspired awe. 
But if you went back, mind intact, 
You’d see the game, the hidden act.

[Verse 6 – The Shift in Perspective] 
Your classmates now would seem absurd, 
Their fears and dreams, each whispered word. 
The teacher’s power, once so grand, 
Would shrink beneath your wiser stand. 
And that’s how some now see the grind, 
The adult world — a cage designed.

[Verse 7 – The Charade Exposed] 
It’s all a play, a scripted show, 
Where suffering’s the undertow. 
If all were fair, we’d let it slide, 
But paradise gets crucified. 
By tiny groups with greedy hands, 
Who twist the fate of sacred lands.

[Verse 8 – The Burden of Clarity] 
And once you see it, once it’s clear, 
It’s hard to breathe, it’s hard to cheer. 
You walk through life with open eyes, 
And see the cost of all the lies. 
But still you dream, still you fight, 
Still you name the world’s birthright.
