let go. yea. i got a lot of shit on my chest. a lot of weight on my shoulders. too much shit on my mind. i gotta let it out. my people need me. look. me
in four i was born in a war-torn corner. jenin
phaliastine where the bombs stomped on us
try to escape but they never stop falling on us
we'd end up with the weight of thw whole world on us
what's the difference between peace and war
you can make war from peace
but not peace from war
man
why you think they teach us for
what the speech is for
can't nobody fuckin' speak no more
not i'am getting to the point i cant breath no more. 'cause all i ever read is disease and war
young soldiers die before their seeds are born
they go back and fourth
like somebody's keeping score
and if i know
that mean that somebody else know
if we all know that doesn't mean that helps close
i want peace i guess that makes me a dreamer
this is for the victims of the middle east and katrina
do we deserve this
is it worth it
why the fuck they got us feeling like we worthless
they do it on purpose and it's workin'
hey
i aint tryna say that we perfect
we had a history of violence
we had a history of violence
we had a history of violence
we had a history of violence
we had a history
we aint asking you to love us
stop tryna judge us
who made the decision to go ahead and say fuck us
but you seeing them hover
it doesn't matter how high
them warplanes fly
god's above 'em
what happened to palestinian right
lebanese freedom
or war aimed at civilian life
building get shot down
children goin' fight
millions watch but they keep on killing despite
i'am watching daughters that cry
over father that die
hit the power plans
no power
no water supply
forget the lies; this is when the truth comes in
they hit airports and ports so no food comes in
my spinnin' is the worlds revolvin'
right now we teaching our kids that if theres a problem only war can solve it
truth or dare
tell the truth i dare
discount boys with toys
like they who to a mayor
theres people out there too broke to give us their two cents
i speak for them
if you relate i speak for you too then
they say peace
but we don't have a clue when
how we let them drop bombs on the un
tears trickle down my face
this is a war against my race
so don't just expect me to fall in my place
think of the kids
they cant be replaced
it a disgrace
over one million civilians displaced
tryna hold back his cries
one hand on his mouth
his paps died in a levi
he the man of no house
aint no plannin' it out
this is what this land is about
and he'll be damned if he let them kick his family out
i've seen it
am i dreamin'
they call us names
when they acting like extremists
they left us in pieces
that's not what peace is
that's not the teachings of mohamed
moses
jesus
do we deserve this
is it worth it
why the fuck they got us feeling like we worthless
they do it on purpose and it's workin'
hey
i aint tryna say that we perfect
we had a history of violence
we had a history of violence
we had a history of violence
we had a history of violence
we had a history
what happened to our history
all the good we've done
y'all base your opinion on us
based on what 2% of the religions thinks or the race thinks
