[Radio Announcer]

Explosions in the Israeli town of Yafo

in central Israel near the Ben-Gurion International Airport

This first blast, uh, occurred about 1 and a half hours ago

that's about half past eight in the morning Israeli time

A second blast occurred 10 minutes later in another vehicle

parked a couple hundred meters away from the first blast



[Cilvaringz]

Defeat your enemies with violence, not culture refinements

Right? And show your love diamonds that's blinding

Under the eyelids of men, women and children of all color and religion

I guess building underneath the ceiling of a universal temple is essential

To break through the iron fists of war and swinging damn swords

See, Remedy and I, we swarm as one colony to make you wonder what you die for

But why you murdering our kids?

When all we've got to defend ourselves with our bricks

And stones, can't you hear us moan?

We all out on the streets 'cause you destroyed our home

Nah, you took our food, shelter, and clothing and left us naked

Only to cover ourselves with black seeds of hatred

But right now, whoever's right or wrong

I wonder if we'll ever get along as brothers from different mothers



[Remedy]

I heard a boy crying, two kids dying

Young Israelis, they said the Palestinians were lying

Who's to blame? We set fire to your flame

They withheld the names of the Jews held in vain

Jump into a tank in the far West Bank

There's violence on the Gaza Strip, who's to thank?

Listen! Babies crying

Life lost, Holocaust style, bodies flying

Surprise and surround you, we run rings around you

Silver with the blue and white stars-who we are

We unite, people alike

Strength comes in numbers, all ready to fight

Humanity's song for peace

There's war going on in the Middle East

Build, destroy, build the beast

Sharon and Arafat, Remedy, counter-attack

What's The Cure? Yo, RZA, where you at?



[RZA]

Positive education: always correcting errors

You can never gain peace by inflicting terror

And strapping bombs to arms

Running up inside buildings killing little children and moms

Instead of trying to take land, y'all should shake hands

And give respect to the great father Abraham

You've been fighting over Palestine since Saladin

Have you learned what the word 'non-violent' mean?

Or turn the other cheek? You burn your brother cheap

When ten grip came home we gave his brother sheep

RZA used to be recruiting troops and shooting fruit

When you both be seeds from the same root

Even when young Moses was lost in the desert

He was taught wisdom from an Arabian Shepard

My pen is mightier than CNN

Right now I teach you how to C (see), N, N

Close your eyes silently, breathing deep

Inhale this air all the way to your feet

Then exhale slowly through your nostril

Combine the Torah, Qu'ran, with the Gospel

With your mind open and eyes shut

You can't tell the difference of who's who and what's what

Please educate Allah's children everyday

A lesson a day keeps the devil away
