Mourning In America

Brother Ali
앨범 : Mourning In America And Dreaming In Color (Deluxe Ver.)

I don’t usually use
those big words
Cause I don’t usually
deal with big people
I find you can get
a whole lot of small people
And whip hell out of
a whole lot of big people
Murder murder murder
Kill kill kill
Cannibals walk the earth
and get ill blood spill
Eyes sunk deep in their skull
their bone chill
Few for survival
most for the thrill
Terrorism is the war of the poor
Hold up a mirror so
the script get flipped
Cause when it’s in reverse
it ain’t wrong no more
Cause Warfare’s the terrorism of the rich
Who’s the true guerilla
When the bomb on your body
killing innocent civilians
But a life is a life
and a killer is a killer
You’re at a desk chillin'
push a button kill a million
See the anguish of the parents
When they’re carrying
the body of the baby
that they cherish
When innocent people perish
It’s a very thin line
between a soldier and a terrorist
Murder murder kill kill kill
Death and destruction
a cap get pealed
Harm or heal destroy and rebuild
Shots still ring out
the blood still spill
Murder murder
Kill kill kill
Death and destruction
a cap get pealed
Harm or heal destroy and rebuild
Shots still ring out
the blood still spill
Overseas we can
mutilate and mangle
Let me give you an example
what our troops are coming back to
Cold cities where the youth
are getting strangled
The community in peril
and our future looking narrow
Your school already failed you
The boys in blue will nail you
They salute you with a barrel
The streets are a certified
dead zone
Decorated with chalk lines
and headstones
All the way live and
every night the bullets flying
Even if you ain’t dying you
a traumatized survivor
When you grow up
in a climate of overriding violence
You will never get beyond it
it always be inside too
And death just surrounds you
Fallen classmates’
ghosts haunt you
Crime just calls you
Cause you look at
what you walk through
Ain’t certain if you’ll make it
Ain’t sure you even want to
Murder murder
Kill kill kill
Death and destruction
a cap get pealed
Harm or heal destroy and rebuild
Shots still ring out
the blood still spill
Murder murder kill kill kill
Death and destruction
a cap get pealed
Harm or heal destroy and rebuild
Shots still ring out
the blood still spill
Tears and sorrow block the sunlight
Head low heart broke eyes
closed tongue-tied
Waters raise the tide is climbing
Speeding time the sky is crying
Shots are fired bombs and sirens
War and riots mourning in America
Now that society forgot you
And they locked you
in an obstacle course
where nothing’s possible
If you slip up and they caught you
They got boxes
where they lock you
make a million dollars off you
They rule you too rude to school
They screw you in a booth shoot
electricity through you
Or inject death into you
On a television set and
Just let it ooze through you
Every time a leader tries to
stand up for our freedom
Someone claps them
with the heater their brain
and back leaking
A shame their family grieving
And the only way to see them
Is a displaced dream
displayed in a museum
They say they built
our nation for a reason
Then they stained it
with the bleeding of the slaves
that never seen it
I ain’t hating
I still want to believe it
And I’m not trying to leave it
I just call it how I see it
Murder murder kill kill kill
Death and destruction
a cap get pealed
Harm or heal destroy
and rebuild
Shots still ring out
the blood still spill
Murder murder kill kill kill
Death and destruction
a cap get pealed
Harm or heal destroy
and rebuild
Shots still ring out
the blood still spill
They haven’t got
anything to lose
And they’ve got
everything to gain
And they’ll let you know
in a minute
It takes two to tango
When I go
You go
