Verse 1
(E minor) Let me now turn to our program
for the future.
...economy right now...
It's ex (B minor) tremely supporting of
(E minor) the president and his policies...
...FBI scientists have
found chemical traces
consistent with a bomb or a missile
on a piece of wreckage...
...police using clubs
and tear gas against demonstrators...
...motherf***** (C major) so -and -so
and a white fascist...
...they say you're getting some
of your (D major) own medicine... (E minor)
Tellin' lies to (D major) our children,
tellin' (C major) lies to (B minor) our children,
(E minor) tellin' lies to (D major) our babies (C major)
Only truth can (B minor) take us
You (E minor) can't fool all the people all of the time
But if you (D major) fool it right once,
then the rest is far behind
Tell me who's got con (C major) trol of your mind
In your worldview, is it (B minor) the news
or the movie you taking your girl (E minor) to?
Know what I'm saying,
cause Uncle Sam got a plan
If you ex (D major) amine what they telling us,
then you will understand
What they (C major) planting in the seeds
of the next generation
Feed (B minor) ing our children miseducation
No one (E minor) knows if there's UFOs
or any life on Mars
(D major) Or what they doing
when they up in the stars
Because I (C major) don't believe a word
of what the President said
He (B minor) feeling our head with lies,
got us hypnotized
When he be (E minor) speaking in cold words
about crime and poverty
Drug (D major) s, welfare, prisons, guns, and robbery
It (C major) really means us,
there's no excuse for the slander
What was (B major) good for the goop
is still (B minor) good for the gander, (E minor) see
I don't believe
Bar Marley got the cancer
31 (D major) years ago
I would've been a panther
(C major) They killed Huey
cause they knew he had the answer
The (B minor) views that you see in the
news is propaganda (E minor)
Telling lies to (D major) our bitches
Telling (C major) lies to (B minor) our children (E minor)
Tellin' lies to (D major) our babies
Only (C major) truth can (B minor) take us home
I (E minor) don't want no computer chip in my arm
I (D major) don't wanna die by a nuclear bomb
I say (C major) we all rush to Pentagon
Pull out guns and grab (B minor) the intercom
(B major) My first (B minor) words will be,
I believe (E minor) man made God
Out of ignorance and fear,
(D major) an d God made man
And why the hell would he put us here?
(C major) I thought he's supposed
to be the all -loving
The same God who let (B major) Hitler
put (B minor) the Jews in (E minor) the ovens
We don't fall for the regular shit
They try to feed us all (D major) this half
-assed leadership
Flip a position, they turn (C major) politician
And shut the hell up and follow tradition
Boy, (B minor) your TV screen
is telling lies to your vision
Every (E minor) channel got some brainwashed
cop shit to watch
Run (D major) nin' up in niggas' cribs,
claimin' that they earn shots
It's (C major) a plot, but bust it,
can you tell me who's greedy?
Are (B minor) the big corporations,
the pigs, or the media?
(E minor) Sign of the times,
terrorism on the rise
Commercial (D major) airplanes fallin'
out the skies like flies
Make (C major) me wonder what secrets
went down with Ron Brown
Who burned (B minor) the churches
to (B major) the ground
with no (B minor) evidence found
It's not (E minor) co incidence,
it's been too many steady incidents
It (D major) could've been the Klan
who put that bomb at the Olympics
But (C major) it probably was the FBI
Debate the cause,
cause if (B minor) they make us all panic
They could start martial law
I (E minor) don't believe Bob
Marley died from cancer
31 (D major) years ago I would've been a panther
(C major) They killed Huey
cause they knew he had the answer
The (B minor) fuse that (B major) you see
in the (B minor) news
is propaganda
I (E minor) don't believe Bob
Marley died from cancer
(D major) 31 years ago, I would've been a panther
(C major) You killed Huey
cause you knew he had the answer
The (B minor) views that you see in the news
is mother (B major) fuckin' propa (E minor) ganda
What telling lies, fooling mil (D major) lions?
What are they (C major) teaching our kids
in these school (D major) build (B minor) ings? (C major)
(E minor) Televised, enterprise,
waking up, (D major) camping
Controlling our (C major) lives
This ain't livin', (B minor) no this ain't (E minor) liv in' FBI,
CIA, (D major) ATF, KKK, (C major) IRS, TNT, (B major) (B minor) CBS, NBC
(E minor) F .B .I. C .I .A. (D major) A .T .F. K .K .K. (C major) I
.R .S. T .N .T. (B minor) C .B .X. (B major) (B minor) N .B .C.
(E minor) Tellin' lies to (D major) our babies
Tellin' (C major) lies to our (B minor) (C major) children
(E minor) Telling lies to (D major) our babies
Only (C major) truth can (B minor) take us
From (E minor) here (D major)
We view each other
with (C major) a great love
and a (D major) great understanding
(B minor) And that we try to ex (E minor) tend this
to the general black (D major) population
and also (C major) people, oppressed people
all over the world. (D major)
(B minor) An d I think that we (C major) dif (E minor) fer
from some other (D major) groups
simply because we
understand the system
better (C major) than most groups
under (B major) stand the system.
And with (E minor) this realization,
we've (D major) attempted to form a
strong polit (C major) ical base
based in the community
with the only strength that we have,
And that's the strength of a
potentially destructive force
if we don't get freedom.
