lyrics

yea for some reason Christopher Columbus
is still seen as hero
that's treason to truth
cut off the arms of the Tainos
if they didn't gather enough gold
so here we go
contrary to belief he didn't land in the east
he landed in the West Indies
and how can we "discover" a land
when there exists Hopi, Mohican, Cheyenne, Cherokee
and many more
our history shouldn't be a mystery
these lies I deplore
how can we know where we're going
when we don't know where we've been
we gotta be honest about this bloody history
so it doesn't happen again

the gangs and the government are no different

make no mistake
family gatherings and feasts are great
but Thanksgiving is a euphemism for Thankskilling
we celebrate hate
the natives gave the settlers a helping hand
taught em how to survive and till the land
and the thankin the natives got
was blankets with small pox
shot the fathers, raped the mothers and the daughters
knocked em out with fire water
this country united states entity
was founded on a collective murder, rape and armed robbery
and these leaders wonder why these shorties
come with pistols to come up
when the president have disputes
he orders the troops to shoot
and the nemesis gets blown up

the gangs and the government are no different

oh God I think the devil is winnin
all this violence today is a reflection of the beginnin
in every neighborhood, city and country
there's some beasts that prey on they own peeps
it covers every race and all nationalities
they call it makin a livin
I call it killin
your neighbors who suffer from addiction
a skewed perception of distortion
make an honest man pay protection
lets not sugar coat that's extortion
from the block where they might break your neck
to the government that pulls a weekly jack move
on your paycheck
dodge the gangs and the government
cuz they swoopin' like vultures

the gangs and the government are no different
