Verse 1
So (E minor) what about Africa,
(D major) oh they're just black
Half (C major) a year spent on (D major) the pope
and glossed over the facts
About (E minor) the rape and murder
and civil (D major) ized aristocrats
Scram (C major) bling for Africa
like (D major) rats trampled through trash
As (E minor) sailants for cash,
plus (D major) control and domination
Polit (C major) ical plans to strangle
(D major) hold the population
For (E minor) ce of habitation,
game (D major) of capture the flag
Turning my body (E minor) and soul
into (D major) tattered up (E minor) rags
Cicero said it best,
if (D major) I could annex other planets
Now technology (C major) oc cupy my (D major) mind,
god damn it
For (E minor) the love of Ray J,
I know (D major) God couldn't plan it
Global (C major) warming's got (D major) us all locked,
how do we stand it?
(E minor) Make a mountain out of molehill,
(D major) drop bombs without Congress
Wear (C major) ing my colors (D major) with my people
Acting obnoxious, what (E minor) you got?
I want it
(D major) Your block? I'm on it
(C major) The wretched of the earth,
(D major) imperialism's upon us
(E minor) Watch the snakes that (D major) coil and strike
An (B minor) d bite whoever fights for (D major) their rights
The spoils of (E minor) life
Show the cavemen fire,
(D major) burn them alive
(B minor) Gentrification, game of (D major) gore, genocide
Uh, (E minor) irrelevant lives of
(D major) the elephant tribe
Democracy, (B minor) the priesthood
That's why (D major) the priests is worldwide
On (E minor) the scene, demon crap,
(D major) promotional lies
About (E minor) a region of (B minor) heathens
that (D major) should be civilized
The ruling (E minor) elite, brutally beaten, (D major)
it's a lie
Geno (C major) cide for a third man, (D major) I civilize
If divided (E minor) we fall, how do y 'all (D major) rise?
Divide, conquer, (C major) strategize,
imper (D major) ialism aside
Be (E minor) it race, gender, or class,
(D major) place in the caste
System (C major) that within slavery last (D major) s
If not (E minor) physical,
the mental will (D major) endure vast
Series (C major) of inequality, (D major) not up to the task
Revolu (E minor) tion surely will pass,
(D major) just like a chase shirt (C major) fad
1914 began, (D major) worst path to end (E minor) the days
In the rage of (D major) the two wars
half the world
Suffered in depression
while the rest of them laughed
By (E minor) the rest I mean,
sons of (D major) the ones
who chained us to (C major) the slave trade
Years later, (D major) blenders for the AIDS craze
(E minor) by any means mani (D major) fest destiny
not just (C major) ex pand to the west
you see (D major) it's bigger than the u .s
(E minor) big ger than the u .n
(D major) new imperialis (C major) m
a clever vision
see (D major) the eu movement
(E minor) snake sliver in (D major) the midst of hell
live a wild (C major) documented cell
they (D major) sell their bullshit for (E minor) rent
watch the snakes that (D major) coil
and strike an (B minor) d bite
whoever fights for (D major) their rights
the spoils of (E minor) life show the caveman fire
(D major) burn them alive
gentri (B minor) fication game of (D major) gold genocide
the (E minor) irrelevant lives of
(D major) the elephant tribe (B minor)
That's why (D major) the preachers worldwide
on (E minor) the scene deeming crap,
(D major) promotional lies
About (B minor) a region of heathens
that (D major) should be civilized (E minor) (D major) (B minor)
(D major) (E minor) (D major) (B minor)
(D major) (E minor) (D major)
(B minor) (D major) (E minor) (D major)
(B minor) (D major) (E minor) (D major)
(C major) (D major)
The epi (E minor) tome of cynicism,
(D major) the sense of living,
where you (C major) can't see the
light and your (D major) senses
The by (E minor) -product of lies
and the iron (D major) conduct
The rise of (C major) the machines,
red, blue, (D major) ties in the tux
Thugs (E minor) rhyming, no love, blood,
(D major) diamonds and slugs
Hey, you (E minor) know mine,
my people just mine and get cut
The minerals hide in the pores
(D major) of the earth
The poor die, (C major) the rich switch
sides and (D major) take turf
Rudyard (E minor) Kipling tried casting (D major) a spell
The white man's (C major) burden,
the black man's (D major) hell in a shell
Corruption, (E minor) violence, (D major) ethnic conflicts
An (C major) d they still wondering
where the (D major) bomb is
(E minor) With lack of education and health (D major) care
The sense of (C major) self disappeared
the com (D major) munity scared.
(E minor) Watch the snakes that (D major) coil and strike,
(B minor) an d bite
whoever fights for (D major) their rights.
swirls of (E minor) light show the cavemen fire,
(D major) burn them alive.
(B minor) Gentrification, game of (D major) gold,
genocide.
(E minor) The irrelevant lives of (D major) the elephant tribe,
democracy, (B minor) the priesthood.
That's why (D major) the priests is worldwide,
on (E minor) the scene, demon crap,
(D major) promotional lies,
about (B minor) a region of evil
that (D major) should be civilized.
(E minor) Watch the snakes that, (D major) watch the,
(B minor) watch the snakes
(D major) Shake that cradle, (E minor) cradle, or strike
Cradle, (D major) (B minor) cradle, or strike (D major)
Watch (E minor) this watch this (D major)
Watch this (B minor) watch (D major) this
Simple lines
(E minor) (D major) (B minor) (D major)
