[Verse 1]
Eager editors with truth their preference
Spoke out, didn't know who they were messin' with
Previous murders set a grisly precedent
A bullet in the head was a heavy severance
Headlining corruption, the guns and the d**
A legacy of will became a legacy of blood
Exposing crim,e a grave they dug
Togliati police swept their d**h under the rug
Ransom demand from an email sent
Nine days followed the demands were not met
Family and colleagues began to fret
For global politics Daniel Pearl paid the debt
A Wall Street journo, his courage came correct
Ambushed in Pakistan in a hideaway kept
Labelled a spy, given a false rep
For seeking truth they put a blade to his neck
[Scratches: DJ Kilo]
"Got a right to be hostile, my people's misguided"
"Become a victim in the blink of an eye"
"Got a right to be hostile, my people's misguided
Got a right to be hoes—hostile"
"Become a victim—Become a victim
Become a victim"
"Got a right to be hostile, my people's misguided"
"Become a victim in the blink of an eye"
[Verse 2]
Bleeding to d**h on Burmese bitumen
Foreign media, newspaper picture-man
Kenji Nagai is what he was christened as
Plight of the people, what his lens was witnessing
Gunned down by the government troops
They said [?] ricochet, they not tellin' the truth
Capturing proof as a good man died
The photo taken won a Pulitzer Prize
A team in Timor documenting invasion
The army was comin', what an occasion
Locals only wanted to form their own nation
Machine gun snubs what reporters were facin'
Aussie TV journos had to survive
Back home they had kids, parents and wives
Bought to an end with rifles and knives
Still today no justice for the Balibo five

Become a victim"
