[00:00.83]This track is not an attack upon the American people
[00:04.06]It is an attack upon the system within which they live
[00:06.68]Since 1945 the United States has attempted to overthrow more than 50 foreign governments
[00:12.19]In the process the U.S has caused the end of life for several million people,
[00:15.81]and condemned many millions more to a life of agony and despair
[00:20.64]The strength of your dreamin
[00:21.86]Prevents you from reason
[00:23.08]The American dream
[00:24.20]Only makes sense if you're sleepin
[00:25.54]It's just a cruel fantasy
[00:27.80]Their politics took my voice away
[00:29.43]But their music gave it back to me
[00:30.89]The land where their lumpen are consumed by consumption
[00:32.79]Killing themselves to shovel down food in abundance
[00:35.88]I guess a rapper from Britain is a rare voice
[00:38.66]America is capitalism on steroids
[00:41.28]Natives kept in casinos and reservations
[00:43.75]Displaced slaves never given reparations
[00:46.45]Take everything from Native Americans
[00:49.03]And wonder why I call it the racist experiment
[00:51.59]Afraid of your melanin
[00:52.82]The same as it's ever been
[00:54.09]That ain't gonna change
[00:55.33]With the race of the president
[00:56.53]I see imperialism under your skin tone
[00:59.53]You could call it Christopher Columbus syndrome
[01:12.93][01:02.56]Is it Obamas nation or an abomination?
[01:15.38][01:04.80]Is it Obamas nation or an abomination?
[01:17.68][01:07.47]Is it Obamas nation or an abomination?
[01:20.27][01:10.22]Doesn't make any difference when they bomb your nation
[01:22.77]The worlds entertainer
[01:23.89]The worlds devastator
[01:24.95]From Venezuela
[01:26.32]To Mesopotamia
[01:27.52]Your cameras lie
[01:28.80]Cause they have to hide the savage crimes
[01:30.33]Committed on leaders that happen
[01:31.44]To try and nationalize
[01:32.98]Eating competitions while the worlds been starvin
[01:35.21]Beat up communism with the help of bin-laden
[01:37.78]Where would your war on terror be without that man
[01:40.45]Every day you create more Nidal Hassans
[01:43.07]Kill a man from the military, you're a weirdo
[01:45.56]But kill a wog from the Middle East you're a hero
[01:48.18]Your country is causing screams that are never reaching ear holes
[01:50.64]America inflicted a million ground zeros
[01:53.18]Follow the dollar and swallow your humanity
[01:55.70]Soldiers committing savagery you never even have to see
[01:58.38]Those mad at me, writing in emails angrily
[02:01.05]I'm not anti-America, America is anti-me
[02:14.69][02:04.29]Is it Obamas nation or an abomination?
[02:17.18][02:06.71]Is it Obamas nation or an abomination?
[02:19.47][02:09.04]Is it Obamas nation or an abomination?
[02:22.12][02:12.06]Doesn't make any difference when they bomb your nation
[02:24.94]I don't care if him and Cheney are long lost relations
[02:27.58]What matters more is the policies I lost my patience
[02:29.80]Stop debating bringing race into conversation
[02:32.24]Occupation and cooperation equals profit makin
[02:34.82]It's over - people wake up from the dream now
[02:37.46]Nobel peace prize, Jay-Z on speed dial
