[Lupe Fiasco]

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

[Lupe Fiasco]

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 learned to walk already heavily armed

Civilians and little children is especially harmed

Camoflouged Torahs Bibles and glorious Qurans

The books that take you to heaven and let you meet the Lord there

Have become misinterpreted reasons for warfare

We read 'em with blind eyes I guarantee you there's more there

The rich must be blind because they didn't see the poor there

Need to open up a park just closed 10 schools

We dont need 'em

Can you please call the fire department they're down here marchin for freedom

Burn down their teepees turn their TV's on to teach 'em and Move!

[Hook: Matthew Santos]

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

American Terrorist!

[Lupe Fiasco]

Now the poor Ku Klux man see that we're all brothers

Not because things are the same becuase we lack the same color

And thats green now that's mean

Can't burn his cross cause he can't afford the gasoline

Now if a muslim woman strapped with a bomb on a bus

With the seconds running give you the jitters?

Just imagine a American-based Christian organization

Planning to poison water supplies to bring the second-coming quicker

Nigga they ain't livin properly

Break 'em off a little democracy

Turn their whole culture to a mockery

Give 'em coca-cola for their property

Give 'em gum give 'em guns get 'em young give 'em fun

If they ain't givin' it up then they ain't gettin none

And dont give 'em all naw man just give 'em some

Its the paper some of these cops must be Al-Qaeda nigga uh

[Hook x2]

[Lupe Fiasco]

It's like

Don't give the black man food give red man liquor

Red man fool black man nigga

Give yellow man tool make him railroad builder

Also give him pan make him pull gold from river

Give black man crack Glocks and things

Give red man craps slot machines

Now bring it back bring it back bring it back bring it back

Don't give the black man food give they red man liquor

Red man fool black man nigga

Give yellow man tool make him railroad builder

Also give him pan make him pull gold from river

Give black man crack Glocks and things

Give red man craps slot machines
