Testo American Terrorist - Lupe Fiasco
Testo della canzone American Terrorist (Lupe Fiasco), tratta dall'album Body Of War: Songs That Inspired An Iraq War Veteran
Close your mind, close your eyes, see with your heart
How do you forgive the murderer of your father?
The ink of a scholar is worth a thousand times more
Than the blood of a martyr
Terrorist
We came through the storm, nooses on our necks
And a smallpox blanket to keep us warm
On a 747 on the Pentagon lawn
Wake up, the alarm clock is connected to a bomb
Anthrax lab on a West Virginia farm
Shorty ain't learn to walk, already heavily armed
Civilians and little children is especially harmed
Camouflage, Torahs, Bibles, inglorious Qur'ans
The books that take you to Heaven and let you meet the Lord there
Have become misinterpreted reasons for warfare
Reread 'em with blind eyes, I guarantee you there's more there
Rich must be blind 'cause they ain't see the poor there, yeah
Need to open up a park, just closed ten schools
We don't need 'em, can you please call the fire department?
They down here marching for freedom
Burn down their teepees, turn they TVs on to teach 'em and move
The more money that they make, the more money that they make
The better and better they live
Whatever they wanna take, whatever they wanna take
Whatever, whatever it is
The more that you wanna learn, the more that you try to learn
The better and better it gets
Americo Terrorist
Now the poor Ku Klux men see that we all brothers
Not 'cause things the same, but 'cause we like the same color
And that's grain, now that's Maine
Can't burn his cross, 'cause he can't afford the gasoline
Now if a Muslim woman strapped with a bomb on the bus
With the seconds runnin' give you the jitters
Just imagine an American based Christian organization
Planning to poison water supplies to bring the second coming quicker
Nigga, they ain't livin' properly
Wreck 'em all for a little democracy
Turn they whole culture to a mockery
Give 'em Coca-Cola for they property
Give 'em gum, give 'em guns, get 'em young, give 'em fun
But if they ain't givin' it up, then they ain't gettin' none
And don't give 'em all, nah, man, just give 'em some
It's the paper, some of these cops must be Al-Qaeda, nigga, uhh
The more money that they make, the more money that they make
The better and better they live
Whatever they wanna take, whatever they wanna take
Whatever, whatever it is
The more that you wanna learn, the more that you try to learn
The better and better it gets
Americo Terrorist
The more money that they make, the more money that they make
The better and better they live
Whatever they wanna take, whatever they wanna take
Whatever, whatever it is
The more that you wanna learn, the more that you try to learn
The better and better it gets
Americo Terrorist
Don't give the black man food, give red man liquor
Red man, fool, black man, nigga
Give yellow man tool, make him railroad villa
Also give him pen, make him pull gold from river
Give black man crack, Glock and things
Give red man craps, slot machines
Now bring it back, bring it back, bring it back, bring it back
Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back, bring it back
Don't give the black man food, give the red man liquor
Red man, fool, black man, nigga
Give yellow man tool, make him railroad villa
Also give him pen, make him pull gold from river
Give black man crack, Glocks and things
Give the red man craps, slot machines
Now bring it back, bring it back, bring it back, bring it back
Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back, bring it back, uhh
