[Intro:]
|
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
|
|
[Verse 1:]
|
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
|
|
[Chorus: x2]
|
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
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
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
|
|
[Chorus: x2]
|
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
|
|
[Verse 3:]
|
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
|
