[Verse 1: Shahbaz] I knew this girl, she was my black birth mother A pearl I was in love for as well, we found each other Through heaven and hell Like a brothers show and tell She raised me from three years old Brought peace to my wondering, travelling soul I never left her, everywhere I went she was there with me She kept me down to earth, she was my gravity A passionate mist drift of the breese Until she fell down, down, down on her knees Just to please these Yanks who borded her shores Overnight she became a whore A street walker, a sweet talker But I understood her pain It was due to the days of the Queens reign From the ships of convicts, the crims, rapers, sinners The chip erased her native memory Made her religious and now the rest is history [Chorus: Porsah Laine {Vocals}] Fly high baby You know you need me like tomorrow needs the sun Trust in your lady You know that I get things done [Verse 2: Optamus] I used to see it all I used to see it fill hope But now I don't, lost that faith - look how many people be broke It used to be the land of the free, the Croc Dundee Now we're backing Bush and Blair on the war for the green A dollar bill opens a wall, man you know that's all false Howard sits there in agreement and just waits to be told She was my love, my belief, now the hatred runs deep Can't even holiday in Indo cause it's West versus East What happened to peace, what happened to the happy go lucky Girl I used to know, but now she's acting all funny My lifes love, still had pride for the people of Oz And I'm proud of these soldiers but their lives should't be lost To some cause that's not our fight, it's not anyones And it's never gonna end, it's gonna effect everyone Look at your children and the kids, this world ain't the same It's like the ignorance against religion, against race [Hook/Samples: DJ Armee] [G.W. Bush (NBC's Meet the Press 2004):] "I'm a war President, I've got war on my mind" "I am the Pyramis" "I'm a war President" [Jeru The Damaja:] "Cause I blow up spots like the World Trade Centre" "I'm a war President, I've got war on my mind" "I am the Pyramis" "I'm a war President" "Cause I blow up spots like the World Trade Centre" [Chorus] [Verse 3: Dazastah] Yeah, born and raised I was praised at a young age I got this lady, she was around me everyday She told me the laws and physics of my life And whenever I ran amuck she stalked me in the night She was all that govern, the western commandments The swings and see-saws, the parks that ran abundant I thank her for the toy she had made She was the education system at the first grade But as I grew older I saw her as a snake A business head only concerned with financial gain Destroyed my mother, drilling holes in her stomach So she could absorb the oil and get a fatter pocket She never cared about us, betrayed us for wars So she could control Dad and settle some old scores A coniving slut that breaks her own laws She's a gold-digger bitch and now I hate the whore
