1
[Talking]
2
The new age is upon us
3
And yet the past refuses to rest in its shallow grave
4
For those who hide behind the false image of the son of man
5
shall stand before God!!! It has begun
6
The beginning of the end
7
Yeah..
8
Yeah... yeah, yeah
9
[Verse 1]
10
The voice of racism preaching the gospel is devilish
11
A fake church called the prophet Muhammad a terrorist
12
Forgetting God is not a religion, but a spiritual bond
13
And Jesus is the most quoted prophet in the Qu'ran
14
They bombed innocent people, tryin' to murder Saddam
15
When you gave him those chemical weapons to go to war with Iran
16
This is the information that they hold back from Peter Jennings
17
Cause Condoleeza Rice is just a new age Sally Hemmings
18
I break it down with critical language and spiritual anguish
19
The Judas I hang with, the guilt of betraying Christ
20
You murdered and stole his religion, and painting him white
21
Translated in psychologically tainted philosophy
22
Conservative political right wing, ideology
23
Glued together sloppily, the blasphemy of a nation
24
Got my back to the wall, cause I'm facin' assassination
25
Guantanamo Bay, federal incarceration
26
How could this be, the land of the free, home of the brave?
27
Indigenous holocaust, and the home of the slaves
28
Corporate America, dancin' offbeat to the rhythm
29
You really think this country, never sponsored terrorism?
30
Human rights violations, we continue the saga
31
El Savador and the contras in Nicaragua
32
And on top of that, you still wanna take me to prison
33
Just cause I won't trade humanity for patriotism
34
[Hook]
35
It's like MK-ULTRA, controlling your brain
36
Suggestive thinking, causing your perspective to change
37
They wanna rearrange the whole point of view of the ghetto
38
The fourth branch of the government, want us to settle
39
A bandana full of glittering, generality
40
Fighting for freedom and fighting terror, but what's reality?
41
Read about the history of the place that we live in
42
And stop letting corporate news tell lies to your children
43
[Verse 2]
44
Flow like the blood of Abraham through the Jews and the Arabs
45
Broken apart like a woman's heart, abused in a marriage
46
The brink of holy war, bottled up, like a miscarriage
47
Embedded correspondents don't tell the source of the tension
48
And they refuse to even mention, European intervention
49
Or the massacres in Jenin, the innocent screams
50
U.S. manufactured missles, and M-16's
51
Weapon contracts and corrupted American dreams
52
Media censorship, blocking out the video screens
53
A continent of oil kingdoms, bought for a bargain
54
Democracy is just a word, when the people are starvin'
55
The average citizen, made to be, blind to the reason
56
A desert full of genocide, where the bodies are freezin'
57
And the world doesn't believe that you fightin' for freedom
58
Cause you fucked the Middle East, and gave birth to a demon
59
It's open season with the CIA, bugging my crib
60
Trapped in a ghetto region like a Palestinian kid
61
Where nobody gives a fuck whether you die or you live
62
I'm tryin' to give the truth, and I know the price is my life
63
But when I'm gone they'll sing a song about Immortal Technique
64
Who beheaded the President, and the princes and sheiks
65
You don't give a fuck about us, I can see through your facade
66
Like a fallen angel standing in the presence of God
67
Bitch niggaz scared of the truth, when it looks at you hard
68
[Hook]
69
It's like MK-ULTRA, controlling your brain
70
Suggestive thinking, causing your perspective to change
71
They wanna rearrange the whole point of view in the ghetto
72
The fourth branch of the government, want us to settle
73
A bandana full of glittering, generality
74
Fighting for freedom and fighting terror, but what's reality?
75
Martial law is coming soon to the hood, to kill you
76
While you hanging your flag out your project window
77
[Talking]
78
Yeah..
79
The fourth branch of the government AKA the media
80
Seems to now have a retirement plan for ex-military officials
81
As if their opinion was at all unbiased
82
A machine shouldn't speak for men
83
So shut the fuck up you mindless drone!
84
And you know it's serious
85
When these same media outfits are spending millions of dollars on a PR campaign
86
To try to convince you they're fair and balanced
87
When they're some of the most ignorant, and racist people
88
Giving that type of mentality a safe haven
89
We act like we share in the spoils of war that they do
90
We die in wars, we don't get the contracts to make money off 'em afterwards!
91
We don't get weapons contracts, nigga!
92
We don't get cheap labor for our companies, nigga!
93
We are cheap labor, nigga!
94
Turn off the news and read, nigga!
