Lupe Fiasco - Obama Nation Part 3 lyrics

Intro: Malcolm X- There's a worldwide revolution going in.In my opinion the young generation of white, black, brown, whatever else there is, your living at a time of extremism, a time of revolution.What is revolting a game? A power structure. The American power structure? No. The French power structure? No. Then what power structure? An international Western power structure. And I for one will join in with anyone, don't care what you are. As long as you wanna change this miserable condition that exist on this earth. There's got to be a change, people in power have miss-used, and now there has to be a change, and a better world has to be built, and the only way its going to be built is with extreme method. So what you and I have got to do is get involved. You and I have to be right there breathing down there throat. Every-time they look over their shoulders, we want them to see us. Once those intentions have made notice, we can't to the navy- of the problem, we can get to to the core of the problem,we can get to the root of the problem, and then we can correct the problem [Hook] I don't, I don't want no, Obama, Obama Nation I'm not gonna, vote for your inauguration Cause I don't need your, Obama, Obama Nation I'm not gonna Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist Gaza strip was getting bombed, Obama didn't say sh** [Verse 1: 2Pac] Heavenly Father may I holla at you briefly I wanna meet the President, but will he meet me? He's scared to look inside the eyes of a Thug n***a We tired of being scapegoats for this capitalistic drug dealing How hypocritical is Liberty? That blind b**h ain't never did sh** for me My history, full of casket and scars My own black nation at war, whole family behind bars And they wonder why we scarred, thirteen looking hard Sister had a baby as an adolescent, where was God? Somewhere in the middle of my mind Is a n***a on the tightrope, screaming "Let him die" Can't lie I'm a thug, drowning in my own blood Looking for the reason that my momma's strung out on d** Figure if we high they can train us But then America f**ed up and blamed us Down to die, for everything I represent Meant every word, in my letter to the President [Hook] [Verse 2: M-1] After you divorce yourself from the right wing Propaganda campaign, it's all simple and plain America customed the game Your President got an African name, now who you gonna blame? When they drop them bombs out of them planes Using depleted uranium, babies looking like two headed aliens Follow the money trail it leads to the criminal Ain't nothing subliminal to it, that's how they do it See they game they run, give a f** if he's cunning Articulate and handsome, Afghanistan held for ransom By the hand of this black man, neo-colonial puppet White power with a black face, he said f** it i'll do it A master of disguise, expert at telling lies Then they gave him a Nobel Peace Price Should of known he was trained in Chicago Word to Chairmen Freddy, Mark Clark What they do in the dark will come out in the light Like a WikiLeaks site So I guess Nkrumah was right, who's ready to fight? Last stage of imperialism, I ain't kiddin In the immortal words of Marvin Gaye ‘This ain't living' [Hook] [Verse 3: Black The Ripper] O-B-A-M-A You ain't fooling everyone, I see the games you play You was V.I.P. at the B.I.C And we know that's code name for C.I.A The same way your cameras are watching us, we're watching you Think we're easy to control you ain't got a clue Revolutions on the way, let's see what you're gonna do You gonna send the troops? You gonna drop the nukes? See it's not where you're from, it's where you're at He's sitting in the White House, so who cares if he's black? And why's there still soldiers out there in Iraq? Natural resources ain't yours, its theirs, give it back! You're just another puppet but I'm not surprised Look at Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice They didn't change sh**, house n***a's fresh off the slave ship You'll all burn in hell even Michelle, Obama Nation [Hook] [Verse 4: Lupe Fiasco] I really think the war on terror is a bunch of bullsh** Just a poor excuse for you to use up all your bullets How much money does it take to really make a full clip? 9/11, building 7, did they really pull it? Uh, And a bunch of other coverups Your child's future was the first to go with budget cuts If you think that hurts, then wait, here comes the uppercut The school was garbage in the first place, that's on the up and up Keep you at the bottom but tease you with the upper crust You get it, then they move it, so you never keeping up enough If you turn on TV, all you see's a bunch of "what the f**s" Dude is dating so and so, blabbering 'bout such and such And that ain't Jersey Shore, homey, that's the news And these the same people supposedly telling us the truth Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist Gaza strip was getting bombed, Obama didn't say sh** That's why I ain't vote for him, next one either I'm a part of the problem, my problem is I'm peaceful And I believe in the people, yeah [Hook] [Verse 5: Lowkey] Was the bigger threat from Osama or from Obama? Military bases from Chagos to Okinawa I say things that other rappers won't say Cause my mind never closed like Guantanamo Bay Hope you didn't build a statue or tattoo you arm Cause the drones are still flying over Pashtunistan Did he defend the war? No! He extended more He even had the time to attempt a coup in Ecuador Morales and Chavez, the state's are on a hunt for ya Military now stationed on bases in Columbia Take a trip to the past and tell em I was right Ask Ali Abunimah or Jeremiah Wright Drones over Pakistan, Yemen and Libya Is Obama the bomber getting ready for Syria? First black president, the ma**es were hungry But the same president just bombed an African country [Hook] [Obama] The Jonas Brothers are here They're out there somewhere Sasha and Malia are huge fans But, boys don't get any ideas I have two words for you: PREDATOR DRONES You will never see it coming (Audience Laughter) You think I'm joking?
