[Intro clip from "Schoolhouse Rock"]
With no more kiiings
We're going to elect a president!
No more kiiings
He's going to do what the people want!
No more kiiings
We're going to run things our way!
No more kiiings
Nobody's going to tell us what to do!
Rockin' and a-rollin', splishin' and a-splashin'
Over the horizon what can it be?
Looks like it's going to be, a free country...
[Hook]
All around me I see pain and suffering
Feel like I'm bout to go insane im struggling
Paranoid, scared of every noise
Sometimes it's to the point that I can't function..
But I will not concede defeat
Because I recognize that this life's bigger than me...
7 billion minds waiting to be set free
Propoganda is a hell of a disease..
First thing to remember is it's all about the weapons
War is profit they want you to feel perpetually threatened
So they pick a foreign nation and invade on false pretenses
While manufacturing fear to justify the aggression
Second thing to remember is follow the cash flow
Every US intervention is centered 'round black gold
We went to Libya with a ma**ive attack force
But Rwanda hardly got a f**in' US task force
Third thing to remember everyone's got an agenda
Dick Cheney went from CEO to Vice Presidential
Then initialed the war plans for Afghanistan and Iraq
Then gave old company all the reconstruction contracts
Its time to face the facts no matter what pain they engender
Our country's run by wealthy men with rather quick tempers
Profiteering persecutors posing as freedom defenders
While they silence all dissenters, that's the fourth thing to remember
[Hook]
Fifth thing to remember is politics is a movie
Politicians are actors big business does the producin'
Lobbyists be directing how the actors vote and do sh**
The media handles marketing and the box office is boomin'
Sixth thing to remember they want you to play the fool
Because they know that ign'ant folk is easier to rule
Without critical thinking you can't determine the truth
So they dumb down the curriculum and cut funding to the schools
Making rules that subjugate all creative thought and form
Subconsciously teaching kids that its bad to stand alone
So the seventh thing to remember is they want you to conform
To a predecided list of characteristics they call the norm
And the eighth thing to remember is the history is biased
Cause victors prefer to keep the losers' stories quiet
But if you listen closely you can hear the sound of silence:
Whispers of the victims of atrocities and violence
[Hook]
The Council of Nicaea was Constantine's form of business
He denounced the scriptures of the group known as Meletian Christians
Omitted them from the bible then claimed that he had consensus
So don't forget religion ain't immune to sovereign interest
Man its senseless how we buy into the fabricated conflict;
Both parties claim the other is the source of all our problems
So think before u take the pill of hate that they prescribe us
And remember that before they conquer us they must divide us
Waves of violence crash upon the diplomatic islands
Of western countries that was used to having money pilin'
Buyin' oil is no different than buying bricks bars or dro-
If you pay off the connect you can get that sh** for the low
But the people have overthrown all of the tyrants we showered with gold
Cause they're sick and tired of being economically controlled
The Arab Spring has turned to winter hearts are growing cold
How we gon' react now that were ten feet deep in snow?
[Hook]
