For the Camera - The Procussions

Composing raps like dropping notes in a prayer box

In hopes we wrote a track that might evoke a new way of thought

Focusing on where you are noticing days are numbered here

Folks are chasing starts while they throw away their wonder years

Its savage the way we have kids kneeling to actors

The tragedy is half of this kids don’t feel attractive

And the media is trapping us while feeding us fashion tips

If sex where the truth I swear this magazines be abstinent

I’ve yet to see an add were men haven’t been tampering

Their airbrush and magic pen turning women to manikins

We preferring the hands of men over the hands of God

Understand you’re beautiful with or without those cameras on

Quick a photo op click the photo shop

You fit the picture and the logo now you know It’s hot

Is what they saying when their making the cash

And got the whole world smiling while we wait for the flash

Your so beautiful, your so lovely

It’s for the camera click

Your so incredible, so artificial but

It’s for the camera shoot

You look amazing, so unbelievable

It’s for the camera click

So unforgettable, so unreal but

It’s for the camera shoot

Your so beautiful, your so lovely

It’s for the camera click

Your so incredible, so artificial but

It’s for the camera shoot

You look amazing, so unbelievable

It’s for the camera click

So unforgettable, so unreal but

It’s for the camera shoot

Nobody ever asked you to dance right

Your prom night photo made you order a pill to make you eat light

Petite slim weighted women you wanna sound like

It’s all hype filling your body in heavy sound bytes

Don’t get me wrong if it means to motivate you

Just determine if the image is real or if it’s sort of fake

We outta make em tell em the truth

From what the camera shoots

And use the negetives for evidence providing the proof

Funny how that little chip on your tooth

Can be removed without a dentist just a chip inside your pentium fluke

Alert the king because there’s thieves on the roof

Hold your watches and your money cause they after the youth

Study hall is like a video shoot, you can’t tell

If the girl in the front of the class is age twelve or twenty four

Your child is in grown folks clothes

And you wonder why they striking a pose
