Media is a huge part of American life and those with the most influence are usually those glamorous people on TV and in movies. To get on TV or in the movies, you gotta be beautiful. It is so prevalent in America that we often don't realize how ruled we are by our media sources. This song hopes to get people thinking about that.
lyrics
You are ruling me
Beautyocracy
What’s your reason please
For deceiving me
I don’t understand
What’s your master plan
Beautyocracy
Save my soul
I’m wanted
Dead or alive
Know my role
But I’m haunted
By the beautify lies
You’re enslaving me
Beautyocracy
Disenfranchisement
By your government
I don’t understand
What’s your master plan
Beautyocracy
Save my soul
I’m wanted
Dead or alive
Know my role
But I’m haunted
By the beautify lies
You know they always say
If it looks too good to be true
It probably is too good to be true
And you know
You know
You look so good
Save my soul
I’m wanted
Dead or alive
Know my role
But I’m haunted
By the beautify lies
