Still The Same

Yo, this ain’t hunger, this ain’t thirst, 
It’s the engineered need that hits you first. 
Not survival, not species code, 
Just dopamine loops in overload. 
It’s the trance, the dance, the shiny bait, 
Where profit feeds on human state.

[Verse 1 – The Engineered Desires] 
“I need the latest,” “I need the best,” 
Prestige brands put minds to test. 
Fast fashion, junk food, dopamine drip, 
Scroll and consume — never skip. 
False scarcity, planned decay, 
Buy it now before it fades away.

[Verse 2 – The Trance Mechanism] 
This ain’t biology, this ain’t need, 
It’s marketing scripts that make you bleed. 
Status anxiety, neighbor envy, 
The loop that keeps your soul on empty. 
Not rooted in dignity or breath, 
Just systems that profit off slow death.

[Verse 3 – The Gender Loop (Extension) 
And yeah, it cuts deep in the mating game, 
Wealth becomes the primal flame. 
Men chase riches to attract the bride, 
Women seek comfort, not just pride. 
Playboys rise, the poor get ghosted, 
The whole damn culture’s dopamine roasted.

[Verse 4 – The Money Trance] 
“Money makes the world go round” — they say, 
But now it spins in a cancerous way. 
Economics turned on its own throat, 
Choking the species with every note. 
We chase the cash, forget the soul, 
And call it freedom while losing control.

[Verse 5 – The Systemic Collapse] 
Western democracies, self-defeating, 
Built on needs that keep repeating. 
Consumption as virtue, greed as grace, 
While dignity vanishes without a trace. 
The system feeds, but never heals, 
Just spins the wheel and seals the deals.

[Bridge – The Wake-Up Call] 
This ain’t rebellion, it’s diagnosis, 
A mirror held to mass hypnosis. 
We’re not calling for guilt or shame, 
We’re naming the glitch in the game. 
Artificial needs — the silent thief, 
That sells you joy and steals belief.

[Verse 6 – Why Species Needs Trump Artificial Needs] 
Species needs — they cross all lines, 
Borders, classes, faiths, designs. 
Artificial needs? They split and sell, 
Fragment the soul, ring the bell. 
But species needs? They unify, 
They build the base, they lift the sky.

[Verse 7 – Resilience vs Collapse] 
Systems built on real demand, 
Survive the quake, outlast the brand. 
Trends will fade, the hype will die, 
But species needs will always fly. 
Artificial loops? They crash and burn, 
While real needs hold and always return.

[Verse 8 – Justice and Coordination] 
You want justice? Feed the core, 
Not the greed that asks for more. 
Species needs reduce the pain, 
Artificial ones just feed the chain. 
Planetary logistics, health and food, 
Species needs set the mood. 
Artificial hype? It clogs the stream, 
Turns the signal into a meme.

[Final Verse – Signal vs Noise] 
So here’s the truth, no need to poise: 
Species needs are signal. 
Artificial needs are noise. 
One builds harmony, one destroys, 
One lifts conscience, one employs 
The trance, the loop, the endless spin — 
But now we name it. Let truth begin.

[Outro – The Reframe] 
So wake up, brother, break the trance, 
Don’t let false needs set your stance. 
Build on truth, not market lies, 
And let real wealth light up the skies.
