With war rising over the horizonnIt’s hard to start writingnBeen fightin in the belly of the titan, my tourniquets tighten around the livin’ but dyin’nMy pen floods the pages while the children are cryingnI want to put on an iron shirt, chase the devil out of earthnSpit until my tongue and saliva glands burstnBut first I invoke the spirit of the long gone and coming back through the songnI am one with that all-seein’ being butnIt seems as if we’re being tricked into believing that which we think we believe innEven if we disagree on who the best mc is,nWe bob to the beat as if we’re nodding in agreementnI write to freedom, though freedom hasn’t comenI let it ring to leave a message on my answering machinenI see a movement has begunnAs soon as we become the true truth seekersnDown with this Babylon regimenTo think you can die in the blink of an eyenI bid you to try, to test I & InBeen destined to fly But I’m restin tonightnAnd one bright morning I will take flightnBut until then, I’ll be rockin on the mnI see the future drippin out of a pennIf sleep be the cousin of deathnThen every time I blink’s one step closer to my last breathnIt’s said talk is cheap, but war is expensivenI speak cuz it’s free and these words are my weaponsnDon’t think for a second I will not question US foreign policy, imperial aggression inventing war for he quenching of the thirst for the oilnCuz money don’t trickle down to workers who toil, you seenBlood trickle down from the wounds of the soilnAnd broken antennas with aluminum foilnStanding on televisions, transmitting propaganda of millionaire senatorsnAnd your so-called commander in chief, b, I’m telling you the man is a thief,nIn his head he holds a plan to ban your freedom of speech,nTo build a pipeline, put Afghanistan on a leashnWhen it bites back blame the Taliban for the breachnOf security in each and every first world countrynWhere life more dissin’ If you’re thirsty or hungrynTo think you can die in the blink of an eyenI bid you to try, to test I & InBeen destined to fly But I’m restin tonightnAnd one bright morning I will take flightnBut until then, I’ll be rockin on the mnI see the future drippin out of a pennIf sleep be the cousin of deathnThen every time I blink’s one step closer to my last breathnAmerica romanticizes the old war storynHeroes, ammos, guns, blood guts and glorynAnd no wonder the majority wants a war with IraqnEven if only 15% know where it’s at on a mapnWith our backs against a stockpile of weaponrynEnough to turn the earth into a memory, ‘cept there’ll benNo one to remember this planetnIf it happens god damn it, if I get drafted todaynI swear to God, Ja, Allah and YahwehnI’ll toss the letter away and I’ll pull a Cassius Clay, In the militarynMinorities comprise the majority, Surprised? are you kidding me?nThe lies rely on brown bodies to fight for white puppet mastersnI cannot fathom how the caged bird drinksnUntil he thinks he is freenA critical mass between the heavenly future, and a hell of a past, nownTo think you can die in the blink of an eyenI bid you to try, to test I & InBeen destined to fly But I’m restin tonightnAnd one bright morning I will take flightnBut until then, I’ll be rockin on the mnI see the future drippin out of a pennIf sleep be the cousin of deathnThen every time I blink’s one step closer to my last breath
