Lyrics
Verse 1
Every syllableโs surgical, cut through the maze,
Weโre decipherin’ systems, exposin’ the phase,
Critical discourse, dismantlin’ praise,
Rhetoric twists as the power displays.
These narratives spun, they entangle the brain,
From the mediaโs grip to political gain,
The masses stay passive, controlโs in the frame,
Every phrase that they craft is a link in the chain.
CDAโs the cipher, we crack it, no doubt,
From the margins to centers, weโre pullin’ it out,
Every statementโs a battle, itโs cloaked in the clout,
They weaponize language, we turn it about.
Chorus
Words morphinโ, distortinโ, changinโ 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 buildinโ, thrillinโ, spillin’ through the air,
Multisyllabic, the truthโs laid bare,
Critical analysis, takin’ it there,
Unravelin’ discourse, we donโt even care.
Verse 2
Language is lethal, slippinโ through seams,
Itโs laced with control, buried in schemes,
Politicians paintinโ your hopes and your dreams,
While hidin’ the truth, cloaked under the gleams.
Advertisers twistin’ the meaning you hold,
Shapinโ desires that fit into molds,
The stories they tellin’, the powers unfold,
Every sloganโs a weapon, disguised in the bold.
Critical moves as we slice up the text,
Digginโ deeper than syntax, we hit whatโs complex,
Itโs context and function, the culture connects,
Every phrase is a tool to decide whoโs up next.
Chorus
Words morphinโ, distortinโ, changinโ 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 buildinโ, thrillinโ, spillin’ through the air,
Multisyllabic, the truthโs laid bare,
Critical analysis, takin’ it there,
Unravelin’ discourse, we donโt even care.
Bridge
Twistin’ and spinnin’, every line’s got a root,
They implantin’ agendas, we aim and we shoot,
Itโs all in the cadence, the rhythmโs 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 whatโs concealed in the backdrop of speech,
From the boardrooms to classrooms, thereโs power they teach,
The rhetoricโs layered, the heights that they reach,
Each syllableโs structured to strengthen the breach.
Peep the subliminal, slippin’ through facts,
From the whispers to shoutouts, thereโs 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 wordโs ever free,
Itโs tied to the power that people canโt see,
From podiums raised to the talks on TV,
Itโs control in disguise, it’s their mental decree.
Chorus
Words morphinโ, distortinโ, changinโ 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 buildinโ, thrillinโ, spillin’ through the air,
Multisyllabic, the truthโs laid bare,
Critical analysis, takin’ it there,
Unravelin’ discourse, we donโt even care.
Verse 4
Each rhyme is a puzzle, we twist it and flip it,
From ideologyโs grip, we steadily rip it,
Every tactic they push, we catch it, we clip it,
Language is power, but we gonna flip it.
From metaphorโs veil to euphemisms that creep,
Itโs power embedded, they control what we keep,
Critical discourse digs into the deep,
Multisyllabic flows that reveal what they sweep.
The systemโs a labyrinth, we crack every door,
From the phrases they craft to the policies core,
CDA sharpens and cuts to the floor,
Breakinโ the shackles that discourse explores.
Chorus
Words morphinโ, distortinโ, changinโ 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 buildinโ, thrillinโ, spillin’ through the air,
Multisyllabic, the truthโs laid bare,
Critical analysis, takin’ it there,
Unravelin’ discourse, we donโt even care.
