Unreleased Michael Jackson song screaming at the Illuminati?

"Xscape" is an unreleased track that was illegally leaked, and is reported to be cut from Jackson's 2001 "Invincible" album. I heard the song years ago, and didn't pay much attention to the lyrics (mainly because it's so damn funky), but I read the lyrics while listening to the song the other night, and recognized many of the subtle shots at "those in charge".
I will post the original lyrics and a youtube audio, so you can make of them what you want, then I will state my opinions on them below that. Enjoy!



("Open up 6")
("He's gone!"

Everywhere I turn, no matter where I look
The systems in control, it's all ran by the book
I've got to get away so I can clear my mind,
Xscape is what I need,
From electric eyes

No matter where I am, I see my face around
They pin lies on my name, and push them from town to town
Don't have a place to run, but there's no need to hide,
I've got to, find a place,
So I won't hide away

Xscape, got to get away from a system used in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships have to go away
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

Sometimes I feel like
I've gotta get away

I tried to share my life with someone I could love
But games and money is all she ever thought of
How could that be my fault when she gambled and lost?
I'm tired of silly games,
It's time to make a change

Why is it I can't do whatever I want to?
Went in my personal life and I don't live for you
So don't you try to tell me what is right for me
You be concerned about you,
I can do what I want to

Xscape,got to get away from a system used in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships that's gone away

Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

Xscape,got to get away from a system used in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships has to go away
Xscape,the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this
man
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

When I go, this problem world won't bother me no more

Xscape
Xscape
Xscape
Xscape

Xscape, got to get away from a system used in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships that's gone away
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

Xscape, got to get away from a system lose in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships that's gone away
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

Xscape, got to get away
Xscape, the pressure that I face
Xscape, the man with the pen
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me
Xscape

Xscape,
Got to get away
Xscape,
The pressure that I face
Xscape,
The man with the pen
Xscape,
I do what I wanna
I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

You want me? Come and get me..

Get Away!

My thoughts with the lyrics:




("Open up 6")
("He's gone!"
Prison sounds, we are trapped in a cell. 6 as in 666. Jackson trying to excape from the illuminati prison.

Everywhere I turn, no matter where I look
The systems in control, it's all ran by the book
I've got to get away so I can clear my mind,
Xscape is what I need,
From these electric eyes
Pretty self-explanatory.

No matter where I am, I see my face around
They pin lies on my name, and push them from town to town
Don't have a place to run, but there's no need to hide,
I've got to, find a place,
So I won't hide away

Xscape, got to get away from a system used in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships have to go away
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

Sometimes I feel like
I've gotta get away

I tried to share my life with someone I could love
The entertainer/illuminati relationship?

But games and money is all she ever thought of
Trying to con him out of his money, and kill his reputation through scandal.
How could that be my fault when she gambled and lost?
Sony sold Jackson 50% of their music catalogue in the late 80's, including all of the Beatles' recordings. Sony is pissed, because he has made hundreds of millions off of that deal.
I'm tired of silly games,
It's time to make a change

Why is it I can't do whatever I want to?
Went in my personal life and I don't live for you
So don't you try to tell me what is right for me
You be concerned about you,
I can do what I want to

Xscape,got to get away from a system used in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships that's gone away

Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

Xscape,got to get away from a system used in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships has to go away
Xscape,the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this
man
Xscape, I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

When I go, this problem world won't bother me no more
His death?

Xscape
Xscape
Xscape
Xscape

Xscape, got to get away from a system used in the world today

Xscape

Xscape,
Got to get away
Xscape,
The pressure that I face
Xscape,
The man with the pen
Xscape,
I do what I wanna
I do what I wanna cause I gotta face nobody but me

You want me? come and get me..
Which they did in 2009.

Get Away!

Xscape .

Man, I enjoyed that. All the extraneous issues aside, Michael Jackson is one of the all time great, transcendent, artists.

I was on the verge of posting a similar thread today with a song tied to the elite. Not to take away from the discussion of the OP song, I'm going to put the video here to show how most artists seem to have a friendlier relationship with the elite.

By the Red Hot Chili Peppers

It sounds like an emo song,he`s feeling sorry for himself because the system won`t look the other way and let him molest children.

lol sorry bro, been looking for an excuse to post that all day.

I need to go read a philosophy thread about self control.

I Am Tired Of This Devil I Am Tired Of This Stuff I Am Tired Of This Business So When The Going Gets Rough I Ain't Scared Of Your Brother I Ain't Scared Of No Sheets I Ain't Scare Of Nobody Girl When The Goin' Gets Mean

My kids have the "Michael Jackson Experience" on Wii (I know...here come the jokes)

When they were dancing to Black or White...I took notice to the above lyrics.

It could be about the Illuminati, but it seems to me that it's just about the media in general. Jackson felt the media was harassing him, even when he wasn't surrounded by controversy people would make jokes or search for anything in his life to report on. He wants to get away from the media (the electric eyes, the man with the pen).

Ha! My niece and nephew have that game. They are currently the neighborhood favorites as all kids are always there to play it.

Yea. Im sure that could be part of it. He's written multiple "anti-press" songs (tabloid junkie, scream, d.s., etc..) but this one seemed directed at something else.
