War and slavery, exploitation |
|
The common basis of a Western nation |
|
Official version, a falsified story |
|
The truth lies buried in a shroud of glory |
|
Influential people aren't serving time |
|
For being involved in organized crime |
|
But stashed away in beautiful mansions |
|
Guess who provides for their generous pensions |
|
Oppression, ignorance, censorship rule |
|
Education is more than what's taught in school |
|
Forced in a mold, held down by threats |
|
Decisions are made over our heads |
|
But there is a way to refuse and resist |
|
We don't need to be ruled with the iron fist |
|
We are the people, we are strong |
|
Let's make up our minds and prove 'em wrong |
|
Black man, white man, yellow man |
|
Black man, white man, rip the system |
|
Religion and TV, we're under the thumb |
|
Prone to believe 'cause we're already numb |
