	Story Behind the Song Lyrics taken from songs written during a great time of corruption and media frenzy. Most likely the Diallo murder. Done on first take. Flange caused vocal amplitude problems that may be corrected on a later mix. Lyrics (Adlib) The America I've seen'd get Norman Rockwell scarred/ Trustworthy stock fell hard/ and now brother killin brother for a dime/ yet another form of crime/ sweeps our nation/ but we keep on facin/ the other way/ yet the other day/ we lost thousands to the silent homicide/ yes crime is on the rise/ strive is on our minds/ ties is on our eyes/ so we blind/ yet we find/ imaginary peace/ it happens where we cease/ and believe the lies/ then we leave the ties/ behind for new eyes/ and view wise/ it skews lines/ to new heights/ and few try to fight it/ but I did/ And I've been/ Wanted/ Cuz I taunted/ the system/ and dissed 'em/ and listened to truth/ enlisted the troops/ for the war/ more and more/ are signing/ our timing is right/ we're finding the light/ at the end of the tunnel/ re-begin in the rubble/ our pleasant lives/ all peasants rise/ and use your real eyes/ to realize/ the real lies we've been given/ the real lives we've been livin/ were disguises till winnin/ this losin fight/ and you and I/ know suicide/ would do it right/ but abuse our sight/ for the afterlife/ anti-hell/ for heaven/ might as well be left in this place/ where they track and catch us falsely calm us down/ ash to ash I say we all fall down... Free world is a mystery/ only they can twist the history/ and seed lies/ feed 'cides/ while they burn ministries/ you learn instantly/ not to trust a voyeuristic parent/ but the toys are in the carriage/ and we all accept the lies/ all accept the tribes/ who wouldn't stand for it/ so they panned forward/ and for what?/ a fallen man/ a swollen hand/ a stolen land/ a hole in sand/ to dwell in/ like being red was a felon/ but they fell in/ and can't escape their reservation/ and cultural preservation/ is a treasure facin/ extinction/ it sinks in/ the mainstream/ and games seem/ fun again/ but come again/ slavery attacks/ bravery is axed/ all savory is taxed/ and currency depletes itself/ but history repeats itself/ and this rehappens currently/ but we have learned to see/ the truth/ with proof/ of CIA supplyin' out fiend/ and DEA keep lyin' about weed/ Pigs makin the innocent bleed/ but we gon' finish the deed/ and diminish the need/ for government/ uncoverin'/ hidden truths/ get in troops/ and we'll loot the bag/ while big brother watches us salute the flag/ (Adlib)
