Lyrics

Verse 1

Every syllable’s surgical, cut through the maze,
We’re decipherin’ systems, exposin’ the phase,
Critical discourse, dismantlin’ praise,
Rhetoric twists as the power displays.

These narratives spun, they entangle the brain,
From the media’s grip to political gain,
The masses stay passive, control’s in the frame,
Every phrase that they craft is a link in the chain.

CDA’s the cipher, we crack it, no doubt,
From the margins to centers, we’re pullin’ it out,
Every statement’s a battle, it’s cloaked in the clout,
They weaponize language, we turn it about.

Chorus

Words morphin’, distortin’, changin’ in the flow,
Critical discourse, we see how they grow,
From the towers to streets, every power they throw,
We dismantle the structure, expose what they show.

Rhymes buildin’, thrillin’, spillin’ through the air,
Multisyllabic, the truth’s laid bare,
Critical analysis, takin’ it there,
Unravelin’ discourse, we don’t even care.

Verse 2

Language is lethal, slippin’ through seams,
It’s laced with control, buried in schemes,
Politicians paintin’ your hopes and your dreams,
While hidin’ the truth, cloaked under the gleams.

Advertisers twistin’ the meaning you hold,
Shapin’ desires that fit into molds,
The stories they tellin’, the powers unfold,
Every slogan’s a weapon, disguised in the bold.

Critical moves as we slice up the text,
Diggin’ deeper than syntax, we hit what’s complex,
It’s context and function, the culture connects,
Every phrase is a tool to decide who’s up next.

Chorus

Words morphin’, distortin’, changin’ in the flow,
Critical discourse, we see how they grow,
From the towers to streets, every power they throw,
We dismantle the structure, expose what they show.

Rhymes buildin’, thrillin’, spillin’ through the air,
Multisyllabic, the truth’s laid bare,
Critical analysis, takin’ it there,
Unravelin’ discourse, we don’t even care.

Bridge

Twistin’ and spinnin’, every line’s got a root,
They implantin’ agendas, we aim and we shoot,
It’s all in the cadence, the rhythm’s the loot,
CDA cracks open the hidden pursuit.

Watch how the power plays hide in disguise,
Through clever constructions, they limit the rise,
From the cornered confessions to political ties,
Every line is a noose when it tightens the lies.

Verse 3

We dissect what’s concealed in the backdrop of speech,
From the boardrooms to classrooms, there’s power they teach,
The rhetoric’s layered, the heights that they reach,
Each syllable’s structured to strengthen the breach.

Peep the subliminal, slippin’ through facts,
From the whispers to shoutouts, there’s nothin’ it lacks,
Language is coded to fill in the cracks,
CDA brings it back, we expose all the tracks.

No silence is neutral, no word’s ever free,
It’s tied to the power that people can’t see,
From podiums raised to the talks on TV,
It’s control in disguise, it’s their mental decree.

Chorus

Words morphin’, distortin’, changin’ in the flow,
Critical discourse, we see how they grow,
From the towers to streets, every power they throw,
We dismantle the structure, expose what they show.

Rhymes buildin’, thrillin’, spillin’ through the air,
Multisyllabic, the truth’s laid bare,
Critical analysis, takin’ it there,
Unravelin’ discourse, we don’t even care.

Verse 4

Each rhyme is a puzzle, we twist it and flip it,
From ideology’s grip, we steadily rip it,
Every tactic they push, we catch it, we clip it,
Language is power, but we gonna flip it.

From metaphor’s veil to euphemisms that creep,
It’s power embedded, they control what we keep,
Critical discourse digs into the deep,
Multisyllabic flows that reveal what they sweep.

The system’s a labyrinth, we crack every door,
From the phrases they craft to the policies core,
CDA sharpens and cuts to the floor,
Breakin’ the shackles that discourse explores.

Chorus

Words morphin’, distortin’, changin’ in the flow,
Critical discourse, we see how they grow,
From the towers to streets, every power they throw,
We dismantle the structure, expose what they show.

Rhymes buildin’, thrillin’, spillin’ through the air,
Multisyllabic, the truth’s laid bare,
Critical analysis, takin’ it there,
Unravelin’ discourse, we don’t even care.
