歌词
A new American revolution has begun.
Not against the forces of a colonial kingdom,
but a rebellion against an oppressor that has risen among us
It is not a foreign invasion we have to fear,
rather the threat of a force within our nation
that has usurped what was once a dream of
having the greatest democracy ever known to man
We now live in a world
where the population has grown exponentially
And the planet is running out of resources
to sustain us all.
We in the inner-city
and those struggling in the suburban ghettos
may not realize it yet,
but make no mistake,
the people who control the technology
and run every enterprise that makes up our world
have seen this coming for a long time.
The ideas of renewable energy, global warming,
the idea of collectively working
were purposefully bought out,
derailed, demonized, or corrupted in favor of
an economic structure designed by a monetary caste system
In a desperate attempt to convince us
that we need to maintain that extravagant existence,
they’ve pretended we might share in their dream
That we can justify any inhumanity in its name.
Out of this blind ignorance was born the curse of slavery.
Many of the founders of this nation were themselves Masons.
That is not a Left wing or Right wing conspiracy theory.
It is a widely known and accepted fact
So then explain to me how a nation founded by men
who not only understood the long and complicated history of Europe,
but also that of Africa could permeate
such a lie in convincing the American public
that one race of men was superior and one inferior.
When, in fact, we know that all the early men the people
who created civilization and every aspect of what we see today,
the foundation of all modern human life, were from Africa
The greatest cowardice of course came not with slavery itself,
unfortunately. But with the excuses for slavery.
For if America had been as brave as the Roman Empire
and all other empires that have come after her, and claimed
“No, we were just stronger and that’s why we took you,”
then when slavery was over,
racism would’ve probably followed in suit
But instead it was the social lie,
the religious lie that was told
that stayed in the minds of people
that separated one human being from another.
In order to distract us from the issues of class and freedom,
they created issues around religion and race
to dominate the world for centuries to come
Some claim that they respect the culture of life in this country.
They cry out for indignity of children
that are slaughtered before they are born.
But God has not penetrated their souls,
for they have no empathy.
Nothing in their cold hearts
for the hundreds of thousands of
lives we have taken in our wars overseas,
for that which they call “collateral damage,”
which are the burnt and damaged children of the world.
They have no prayers for them.
Only snide commentary on the internet
and laughter in their hearts.
And yet you claim to be one with God?
We talk about immigration in this country.
Might doesn’t make right, ladies and gentleman;
it just makes right now.
What we are saying to the rest of the world is,
one day, when America grows weak,
one day when her legions falter,
on the day when her economy crumbles...
China, Russia, Europe, whatever power has arisen...
all you have to do is come here
and conquer us in a few military excursions,
and then you too can set up shop here,
and in 100 years you can tell every red-blooded American,
“No, you are an illegal human being.
I am the true citizen. I have all the rights.
You have no rights."
Maybe you forgot how you got this country.
Maybe you take for granted the blood,
the sweat, the tears, that the people
who live in practical serfdom shed everyday.
For we may not run America, but we make America run
We talk about the Law,
yet how many indignities have been legal in the past?
How many treaties with Native American people have we broken?
How many international laws have we violated?
And, speaking of laws how can a corporation
be regulated by a government that is funded
and controlled by corporations?
How can there be accountability for people
who see a profit margin above the lives of Americans?
Above the lives of human beings in other countries?
We have taken the soul out of ourselves
and placed them inside machines
My words, of course, will be marginalized,
demonized in typical fashion.
Any time you dare to question the power structure
they say you hate America.
No, I love this country.
I see its beauty every day in its people.
And I love it a lot more than those
who have abandoned the American worker
that have chose to exploit and try to
take away every single benefit she has,
those that attempt to make excuses for every atrocity committed,
in the name of supposed freedom.
Those who demand accountability from everyone,
but offer none themselves...
who favor contracts over lives...
Who favor invasion and control over organic democracy overseas
The greatest flaw that any intelligent person has
is to think that they’re smarter than everyone else.
And so as the government has planted its spies amongst us,
we have planted our spies among them.
They have infiltrated every branch of the American government.
They have retrieved names, data, hard numbers.
The paper trail that will expose those that truly control this country,
those that control the political parties,
those that control the oil industry, the energy.
Those that stand behind the companies faceless,
whose names have never been revealed
Until tod.. (GUNSHOT)
