k**er Mike - Reagan- Annotation Project lyrics

[Ronald Reagan:] Our government has a firm policy not to capitulate to terrorist demands. That no-concessions policy remains in force, despite the wildly speculative and false stories about arms for hostages and alleged ransom payments, we did not, repeat, did not trade weapons or anything else for hostages, nor will we [k**er Mike:] The ballot or the bullet, some freedom or some bullsh** Will we ever do it big, or keep just settling for little sh** We brag on having bread, but none of us are bakers We all talk having greens, but none of us own acres If none of us on acres, and none of us grow wheat Then who will feed our people when our people need to eat So it seems our people starve from lack of understanding Cause all we seem to give them is some balling and some dancing And some talking about our car and imaginary mansions We should be indicted for bullsh** we inciting Hella children deaf and pretending it's exciting We are advertisements for agony and pain We exploit the youth, we tell them to join a gang We tell them dope stories, introduce them to the game Just like Oliver North introduced us to c**aine In the 80s when the bricks came on military planes [Ronald Reagan:] A few months ago I told the american people I did not trade arms for hostages. My heart and my best intentions still tell me that's true, but the facts and the evidence tell me it is not [k**er Mike:] The end of the Reagan Era, I'm like number twelver Old enough to understand the sh**'ll change forever They declared the war on d** like a war on terror But it really did was let the police terrorize whoever But mostly black boys, but they would call us "n******gs" And lay us on our belly, while they fingers on they triggers They boots was on our head, they dogs was on our crotches And they would beat us up if we had diamonds on our watches And they would take our d** and money, as they pick our pockets I guess that that's the privilege of policing for some profit But thanks to Reaganomics, prisons turned to profits Cause free labor is the cornerstone of US economics Cause slavery was abolished, unless you are in prison You think I am bullsh**ting, then read the 13th Amendment Involuntary servitude and slavery it prohibits That's why they giving drug offenders time in double digits Ronald Reagan was an actor, not at all a factor Just an employee of the country's real masters Just like the Bushes, Clinton and Obama Just another talking head telling lies on teleprompters If you don't believe the theory, then argue with this logic Why did Reagan and Obama both go after Qaddafi We invaded sovereign soil, going after oil Taking countries is a hobby paid for by the oil lobby Same as in Iraq, and Afghanistan And Ahmadinejad say they coming for Iran They only love the rich, and how they loathe the poor If I say any more they might be at my door Who the f** is that staring in my window Doing that surveillance on Mister Michael Render I'm dropping off the grid before they pump the lead I leave you with four words: I'm glad Reagan dead
