| This track is not an attack upon the American people
|
| It is an attack upon the system within which they live
|
| Since 1945 the united states has attempted to
|
| Overthrow more than 50 foreign governments
|
| In the process the us has caused the end of life
|
| For several million people, and condemned many millions
|
| More to a live of agony and despair
|
| The strength of your dreamin
|
| Prevents you from reason
|
| The American dream
|
| Only makes sense if you’re sleepin
|
| It’s just a cruel fantasy
|
| Their politics took my voice away
|
| But their music gave it back to me
|
| The land where their Or consumed by consumption
|
| Killing themselves to shovel down food and abundance
|
| I guess a rapper from Britain is a rare voice
|
| America is capitalism on steroids
|
| Natives kept in casinos and reservations
|
| Displaced slaves never given reparations
|
| Take everything from Native Americans
|
| And wonder why I call it the racist experiment
|
| Afraid of your melanin
|
| The same as it’s ever been
|
| That ain’t gonna change
|
| With the race of the president
|
| I see imperialism under your skin tone
|
| You could call it Christopher Columbus syndrome
|
| Is it Obamas nation or an abomination?
|
| Is it Obamas nation or an abomination?
|
| Is it Obamas nation or an abomination?
|
| Doesn’t make any difference when they bomb your nation
|
| O! |
| Say can you see by the dawn’s early light
|
| What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming
|
| Whose broad stripes and bright stars through perilous fight
|
| O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming
|
| The worlds entertainer
|
| The worlds devastator
|
| From Venezuela
|
| To Mesopotamia
|
| Your cameras lie
|
| Cause they have to hide the savage crimes
|
| Committed on leaders that happen
|
| To try and nationalize
|
| Eating competitions while the worlds been starvin
|
| Beat up communism with the help of bin-laden
|
| Where would your war of terror be without that man
|
| Every day you create more Nidal Hassans
|
| Kill a man from the military, you’re a weirdo
|
| But kill a wog from the Middle East you’re a hero
|
| Your country is causing screams that are never reaching ear holes
|
| America inflicted a million ground zeros
|
| Follow the dollar and swallow your humanity
|
| Soldiers committing savagery you never even have to see
|
| Those mad at me, writing in emails angrily
|
| I’m not anti-America, America is anti-me
|
| Is it Obamas nation or an abomination?
|
| Is it Obamas nation or an abomination?
|
| Is it Obamas nation or an abomination?
|
| Doesn’t make any difference when they bomb your nation
|
| And the rocket’s red glare,
|
| The bombs bursting in air,
|
| Gave proof through the night
|
| That our flag was still there,
|
| O! |
| Does that star spangled banner yet wave
|
| O’er land of the free and the home of the brave
|
| I don’t care if him and Cheney are long lost relations
|
| What matters more is the policies I lost my patience
|
| Stop debating bringing race into conversation
|
| Occupation and cooperation equals profit makin
|
| It’s over — people wake up from the dream now
|
| Nobel peace prize, jay z on speed dial
|
| It’s the substance within, not the colour of your skin
|
| Are you the puppeteer or the puppet on the string
|
| So many believe that they was instantly gonna change
|
| There was still Dennis Ross, Brzezinski And Robert Gates
|
| What happened to Chas freeman (APAC),
|
| What happened to Tristan Anderson it’s a machine that
|
| Keeps that man breathing
|
| I have the heart to say what all the other rappers aren’t
|
| Words like Iraq, Palestine — Afghanistan
|
| The wars on, and you morons were all wrong
|
| I call Obama a bomber Cause those are your bombs |
