feat. Talib Kweli[Intro]Take a piece of America backIt's called truth...[Verse 1: Talib Kweli]We the last of the vintage flowers we carry it on our shouldersI keep my friends close and the devils a lot closerWhen the Freedom Riders approach them, their appetite is vulturousSoldiers of fortune ain't never no match for soldiers of cultureMy flow is so *****ing honest, you said you wanted to hear itYour lying, cause all you wanted was for me to lift up your spiritsThe truth is too *****ing ugly and trust me the shit got layersYou touch me, you think you tough, leave u toothless as rugby players,From sufis to soothsayers discussing the true saviours, we move with the gangstasYou niggas sweeter than the fruit flavors, the booth slayer,Proving it's futile to hide from us, you misguided as missiles so aSuicide bombers taking orders from the mullah and waiting for karma to pull up..Their stones are no match for bulletsIsraeli rachets are fullerGotta race to meet Allah like they chasing them with a cop carLike there's honor in being a martyr and a terrorist is a rockstarDodging the Abu Dhabi or dodging the paparazziStill probably as popular as Swastikas for nazis,The cops protect the property,Properly, when they crack your heads,Murderers get as *****y as Perseus when the cracker deadI wonder what be running through these crackers' headsSo my niggas is spilling more blood thanCincinatti castle blacker red?I'll take an Actifed, go back to bed, allergic to the fumesHaving a funeral for the news cause the facts is dead.The trust is gone from the neocons to Barrack ObamaAmerica eats its young from Casey Anthony to the OctomomFix it and mix it up, like Marshall Law for the Octagon,I spit the fire til it burn down Babylon[Bridge]Take a piece of America backYou will learnIt's called truth[Verse 2: RA The Rugged Man]Death by suicide bomb, protestants, Bibles, a Koran, or IslamFrom Genghis Khan to Vietnam I can smell the napalmRape victims, ripped stockingsRedneck clan members doing church bombingsInnocent foetus' being aborted with no optionsHuman governments ruin 'emWorrying what weapons could be used to be nukin' 'emJesus was crucified in JerusalemSlaves treated like property, to Pearl Harbor to Hiroshima to NagasakiAdolf Hitler, to every murderous NaziTo the Gambinos, to the Gottis, to every mafia atrocityChild pornography, babies starving and dying in povertySerbians fighting Croatians in YugoslaviaMuslim women being raped, up to 40,000 in the war in BosniaThe 50 million killed in the second World WarThe government's poisoning the minds and the bodiesOf the babies that are born poorAirplanes blown up by Islamic extremistsIn religion there's always dramaWhether worshipping the profit Mohammed or JesusSmall pox to Napoleon's troops dying from typhusFrom the Spanish flu to the black plague today its AIDS virusBodies in coffins, political extortionsRacist mobs murdering, Willie Turks, Michael Griffith and Usha ForkinsCheck the murder rate, is it human nature to murder and hate?The Catholic church claimed women were witchesAnd burned 'em at the stakePedophile predators attacking.38 Beretta used by Ghandi's assassin16 bullets in Malcolm, It happened uptown ManhattanAnd the homicide, Reagan, '80s epidemic of crackAnd soldiers in action dying in Iraq and never coming backAnd now let's...[Outro]Take a piece of America backYou will learnIt's called truthIt's called truthYou will learnIt's called truthIt's called truthAnnotate
