Viva La Revolucion

Wake up to a new day and your faces are pale
Watching the news, flicking through the pages daily mail
Every word is a lie, spewing propaganda
And you wonder why the fuck I’m having issues with temper
Every TV channel invest in brainwashing kids
Advertising new shit they say next Christmas you’ll need
Enforcing slavery to support your consumerism
Perpetuating the wave of terrorism
Every government official is thief and a fraud
That’s why they hide in their shells behind the National Guard
Now I’m not some anti-west conspiracy theorist
Go ahead add my name to your top 10 most wanted list
At the bottom of my gut I know they fucked us over
The way the government claims to be our four-leaf clover
Exchanging weapons from dusk to dawn in return for oil
With their hands on every gram of coke that crosses the border
Another youth is the victim of police brutality
Fuck what you see on the news, this is cold reality
Subliminal marketing, media censorship, telling lies
Fake reality TV, pulling wool over your eyes
And you wonder why my music aint generic
Cuz these studio gangsters are sounding sort of pathetic
I don’t need no fucking radio play homie
You think I’d go through all of this just to make money

Chorus

Funny how they trialled and executed Saddam
Claiming he’s a threat cuz his making nuclear bomb
Though Regan and Saddam were like father and son
He gave him chemical weapons to go to war with Iran
Hasta la victoria siempre, we fight
Join forces no matter if you’re black or white
Take your money out the bank, turn off the TV
Fuck the law-abiding citizen I’ll speak freely

You simple mindless fucking drones are too lazy to look
Cuz in your pointless little life you’ve never opened a book
When you don’t feel the need to know you wont stand to defend
With your head in the sand things look better or you pretend
The prince of Persia the alpha, and the omega
The dragon slayer, after every government leader
You are responsible, I can see through your façade
I’ll say it again you’re all thieves and your game is a fraud
Margaret thatcher covered up the Hillsborough disaster
David Cameron’s banner red hang Nelson Mandela
Gorge Bush must be trialled for 9/11
Tony Blair plotted the bombings of 7/7
To be safe, silence wont be the price that I’ll pay
I’d rather stand on my feet and fight a war every day
Every hour and minute, viva la revolucion
Until Palestinians claim back the land that they own
United states of America, the land of the free
The same nation that was built upon slavery
Not to forget the genocide of all the natives
With the largest prison complex freedoms over seized
I may be a sinner, but father can you forgive me?
Or give me a reason as to why you’ve forsaken me
I ask for strength, and not for an easier test
To carve a path and shed a light to make a way for the rest
This is my take on what I learnt from Immortal Technique
Whose knowledge of lyrical combat’s at its peak
Viva la revolucion brother cuz I got your back
We’re going to war you know we got to take the power back

Chorus

Funny how they trialled and executed Saddam
Claiming he’s a threat cuz his making nuclear bomb
Though Reagan and Saddam were like father and son
He gave him chemical weapons to go to war with Iran
Hasta la victoria siempre, we fight
Join forces no matter if you’re black or white
Take your money out the bank turn off the TV
Fuck the law-abiding citizen I’ll speak freely
