Anerica the vhore
Prisoners of var
Fron the projects and the ghettos
To the indigenous reservations
We live in an occuppied nation
A nation of incarceration...
A demonstration of mass manipulation
A disassociation of the people
Some considered regal
And masses portrayed as illegal
Vhat happened to all men are created equal?
The police beating people to the ground
¥hile still screamin' "Get down!"
When they come around
Harrasin' tear gassin’
Aimin' taser guns and waving batons
My neighborhood's like Vietnam
And we're the Viet Cong
Man we haven't even done nothing wrong...
Video cameras and metal detectors
Crime created by
Capitalistic infecters
The dissectors of life
‘Their privilege the knife
The reason ve struggle and strife...
With a political parlance
That makes people dance
A mastered rhetoric
That feels so euphoric
And even considered historic
They twist up the minds
And disguise all their lies
Blinding the eyes
And muf€ling our cries
Politicians are magicians
They'11 sell us a dream
“The American dream"
Another devious scheme
They'11 never come clean
That the American dream
Isn't all that it seems...
Prisoners of var
The exploitation of the poor
4nd divisions of classes
ALL the while enslaving the masses
Witness our liberties
Turning to ashes. ..
America the whore
Prisoners of var
From the projects and ghettos
To the indigenous reservations
We live in an occuppied nation
A nation of incarceration...
Future generations
Subjects to the system
Is anybody listenin'
Sent off to institutions
There's got to be better solutions
Ve can't keep feeding this machine
It's cbscene
Picture the scene
Packed into cages for ages
The war still rages
Slave wages
We're getting burned
Yet we still haven't learned
¥hile the government shows no concern
Only concerned with their corporate interests
As ve sit back and witness.
Picture our poverty
Government robbery
With an economic monopoly
As we get lay offs
‘The government pays off
The banks
And they show no thanks
House foreclosures
Government exposures
Trillion dollar wars
Kicking down doors
Patriot Acts
Watch the economy collapse
Rights stripped away
Each and every day
Ve are subjected to tyramy
They only lie to you and me
It's time to wake up and see. ..
Listen and you'll hear
Show no fear
The drum of revolution
Is beating within our hearts
Let us sharpen our arts
Us is where everything starts
It's time to collect our thoughts
And gather our lots
Educate and organize
Create a structure that will
Never rupture, crumble, or break
Our liberties are at stake
Ve make our own fate
Make no mistake
Our livelihood is on the line
And nothing will ever be fine
Until ve make everything yours and mine...
America the whore
Prisoners of var
From the projects and the ghettos
To_the indigenous reservations
Ve live in an occuppied nation
A nation of incarceration. ..
Power to the people ®
And nobody is illegal...

Borders, state lines, closed quarters
The continuous orders
Boundaries, fences, walls, barbed wire
IThe political liar
IThe only desire
To keep us detained and contained
Refrained from liberty...
satellites, spot lights, video surveillance
lAs they comnense to close us in
Lock it down
Get. the fuck down
Tackled, shackled
Listen as they cackle
The sounds of their guns crackle
Coming in with tear gas
Faces covered in masks
The task
To keep us monitored
[And maintained
It's insane...
Visas, mastercard, passports
Thunb prints
And rising rents
Demands of eye scans ©
Documented and filed
Treated like a child
Nutbered and counted
Counted, selected, and requested
Suppressed under arrest

Distortions
Ipods, cell phones, hunan clones, and green zones
MP3s,HD TVs, digital age, the aging signs @
Signs of the time, walk that line, pay that fine
Distractions and coming attractions
Time for direct actions a creation of factions
Gollectives and clubs organizing, devising,
Dehyprotizing, arrising from the ashes
No more lashes from the capitalistic whip
A loosening from the reverie grip
Slip into our boots and lace them up tight
Let's get it right, set our sights and take back
our rights
Too many distractions and not enough action
Billboards, comercial advertising, downsizing
Prices rising the economic decline, wined and
dined with lies, lies, lies
Overpaid and undercut the political slut
Selling out the people illegal corporate interests
Var seems adventurous to those without conscience
U.S. conquest will never rest, downloaded,
Corroded, fully loaded, WDs, DVDs, and satellite
Vs, upgraded, rebooted banks looted, coffers
Brptied, convince me we're not in a state of
Insanity, profanity, in search of our humanity
8, G20, plenty of money but ain't it funny
How poverty and the strong armed robbery
Of our liberties is rampant, living in encampments
Miltiple life sentences with erhancements
But vhat then?

Sold, sealed

Dead end sallys
Side streets
The drugs speak
A lifeless freak
The penniless plots
Twisted thoughts
Privilege

No equality
The slow labotomy
Under bridges and shallow ditches
The houseless dwell
A foul smell
Poverty's like jail
The living hell
An abandoned house
Quiet as a mouse
Squatters
Someone's sons & daughters
Loitered, littered
And lifeless
Saddened as T write this
Cardboard boxes, milk
Crates the head aches
Society takes
While privilege creates
The seeds of hate
Liquor stores
The corner whores
Tending to their chores
‘The cul-de-sac of contempt
Still charging rent
Wondering vhere 1ife vent
Dehumanized, illegalized,
And crininalized
Blind eyes
The stifled cries of poverty
Privatized property
Privilege is robbery
Houseless
The penniless plots
As the rich continues to plunder
While poverty is buried
Six feet under
Privilege equals poverty
No equality
So the pemniless continues
To plot...
Yo Warning shots
Criminalized and dehunanized
Don't look so surprised
We've all been laced up with lies
It's time to decolonize
Vake up and realize
They never wanted us to make it
No real freedom
So we take it
Every made up law
Ve break it
Ve must never forget
That the politicians
Don't give a shit
They want us all blinded
And closed minded
Obedient, submissive
They're dismissive of our needs
So we must proceed
Vith no warning shots
No warning shots
Fuck the cops
Who patrol the blocks
Goin' in our pockets and socks
Plantin' hot rocks
So pack a Glock
And keep it locked arid cocked
Your hand on the stock
Of that rifle
No longer will they
Stifle our voices
Let's make our own choices
Take a chance
Ve can advance
A revolutionary romance
With no warning shots
Yo varning shots
The pig plots
ook how they did Oscar Grant
Quffed up and shot in the back
Another unjust act
Bven in times of peace
They attack
It can happen to you
Happen to me
We will never be free
Unless ve cultivate
The people’s army
With no warning shots
Yo varning shots
Until ve all get a piece
There will never be peace
Let us cease the beast
and increase our numbers
Awaken from our slutbers
Break free
From the reverie
That they've sold to you & me
Tear down the authoritarian society
With no warning shots...
No warning shots
Covert actions with the
Intent to uproot their
Whole existence an
Insistance with persistance
To be free from poverty
Striving for
Equality and
Liberty unequivocally
With no varning shots
The Invasion
They invaded our nations
And carved up our lands
Slaughtered our people
So much blood on their hands
They signed many treaties
And made many pacts
Then broke one and all
Hiding the facts
They forced on us religion
Or an inmediate death
Cracking their whip
With a foul smelling breath. ..
‘They created their states
And an illegitimate govertment
Enslaved all our people
¥hile forced to pay rent
Pnforcing their laws
With the barrel of a gun
Raping our women
Just for the fun...
They kidnapped our children
Putting them to sleep
If they spoke their own language
Then they were beat
Teaching them lessons
That were not of our kind
Erasing our culture
And making them blind...
They initiated a scalp bounty
For silver and gold
Those that veren't killed
Were bought and were sold
They forced on us labor
And kept us repressed
Ve have not forgotten
‘This I must stress.
They claim to want peace
Yet have left us in pieces
Pointing their guns
The oppression never ceases
How much more can we take
Before they've taken it all
It's time that we rise
It's time that they fall...
Remember my people
From vhere we have come
Listen my people
To the revolutionary drun
Feel it my people
As it beats in our heart
Take heed to my words
A revolution we must start...
No_Gods No Masters
No gods no masters
Only human disasters
Fnslaving our people
Is all they are after
Vhere is their Jesus
He doesn't exist
Telling us lies
For this we must resist...
No gods mo masters
Only the spinning of dreans
A reverie caste
And woven up schemes
[ 111usion vas fixed
To keep us fixated
ALl of this time
Enslavenents created...
No gods no masters
They want us distracted
¥hile our liberty's subtracted
And unjust lavs are enacted
1n a world run by lawyers
Through this government maze
How long will it be
Before we see better days
And put an end to their ways...
They think they are gods
They think they're our masters
ALL of their actions
Have led to disasters
With never ending corruption
And endless consumption
Ve must stand up and proclaim
Put and end to this game

Under Attack
We're in the midst of a warzone
Vhile you're distracted on your I-phone
They're raiding your home
Frontling varfare
But you don't care
Until your freedoms are not there
We're under attack
The government's selling us out
Right behind our back...
AlL for corporate interests
And capital gain
They're selling cocaine
Then it's us that they blame and frame
Claiming we're untamed
That they should keep us chained
Restricted and maintained
We're under attack
The government's selling us out
Right behind our back...
People pay attention
Before you wind up in detention
They 're patroling our streets
As they do in Afghanistan
Hunting us down
Like we are the Taliban
Treating us as suspects
Because we are alvays suspected
[They want us disected
®
Tnfected and left inflicted
Addicted and twisted ®©
Vhere did our rights go
You were distracted and missed it
Ve're under attack
The government selling us out
Right behind our back...
They're selling us out
Have no doubts
They will sell you and T out
It's no mystery
Just do your history
No justice or liberties
Only casualties
It baffles me
How the masses cannot see
That we're under attack
The government's selling us out
Right behind our back
Vhere i< the freedom
And democracy in that...
