War!
(DJ Mockstar, Bawarchi King)
Its war, rich against poor
Corporations stole the flag, now they wantin' some more
It's war, rich against poor
Money grabbin' back stabbin' can't take it no more.

Monetary terrorism, fought by the banks
Payin' off the politicians to join in the ranks
You give thanks
Everyday to the land of the free?
Only the rich participate in the American Dream.

Another call, another past due notice
Got the game straight fixed in their favor... and they know this
Got me drownin' in debt but I can't shake em off and
Scratchin' my fingernails on the roof of the coffin

They committin' fiscal murder with blood on their hands
While their money's makin' money out in foreign lands
Payin' off the government one bill at a time
It's all goin' down right in front of your eyes

Here in the USA we reduced to catch phrases
Soundbites, headlines, spray tans on white faces
Sayin he ain’t MY president” Let's face it
Them old rich folks be some old rich racists

Its war, rich against poor
Corporations stole the flag, now they wantin' some more
it's war, rich against poor
Money grabbin' back stabbin' can't take it no more.
Its war, and we're on the defensive
Everybody apathetic, nobody getting pensive
It's not a fair fight when the weapon's expensive
Organize, rise up, launch a counteroffensive

Your biggest fear is livin' in your ghettos and cities
Not in a cave somewhere or some mid-east country
Your biggest fear is in the workin’ middle class
Monetary inequality they temper fast

Corporate states of America crushin' our necks
How the hell we gettin’ poor while they cashin the checks?
They see a loop hole and jump right through it
Why pay a tax on the millions when the poor gonna do it?

Look around you man, y'all should be mad
All the grandmas, the sisters, the moms and the dads
Even the preachers and the poets should be gettin’ hostile
All cuz of the chumps on both sides of the aisle

Even the old folks who don’t care anymore
Even the armed forces, even the fuckin' peace corps
Even the youth who ain’t been mad before
Get ready, watch yo back, cuz they bringing the War!
