Only truth can take us [00:00:39]
Verse 1:[00:00:43]
You can't fool all the people all of the time[00:00:44]
But if you fool the right ones then the rest will fall behind[00:00:46]
Tell me who's got control of your mind your world view [00:00:49]
Is it the news or the movie you're taking your girl to (uh)[00:00:52]
Know what I'm sayin cause uncle sam got a plan[00:00:55]
If you examine what they tellin us then you will understand[00:00:57]
What they plantin in the seeds of the next generation[00:00:59]
Feeding our children miseducation[00:01:01]
No one knows if there's ufo's or any life on mars[00:01:03]
Or what they do when they up in the stars[00:01:08]
Because I don't believe a word of what the president said[00:01:10]
He filling our head with lies got us hypnotised[00:01:13]
When he be speaking in cold words about crime and poverty[00:01:15]
Drugs welfare prisons guns and robbery[00:01:18]
It really means us there's no excuse for the slander[00:01:20]
But what's good for the goose is still good for the gander[00:01:22]
See [00:01:25]
Chorus:[00:01:26]
I don't believe bob marley died from cancer[00:01:26]
31 years ago I woulda been a panther[00:01:28]
They killed huey cause they knew he had the answer[00:01:30]
The views that you see in the news is propaganda[00:01:33]
Singing:[00:01:36]
Telling lies to our children[00:01:36]
Telling lies to our children[00:01:41]
Telling lies to our babies[00:01:46]
Only truth can take us [00:01:52]
Verse 2:[00:01:57]
I don't want no computer chip in my arm[00:01:57]
I don't wanna die by a nuclear bomb[00:01:59]
I say we all rush the pentagon pull out guns[00:02:03]
And grab the intercom my first word's will be I believe[00:02:05]
Man made god outta ignorance and fear[00:02:07]
If God made man then why the hell would he put us here [00:02:10]
I thought he's supposed to be the all loving[00:02:13]
The same God who let hitler put the jews in the oven[00:02:15]
We don't fall for the regular sh*t they try to feed us[00:02:20]
All this half-a** leadership flippin position[00:02:23]
They turn politcian and shut the hell up and follow tradition[00:02:24]
For your tv screen is telling lies to your vision[00:02:26]
Every channel got some brainwashed cop sh*t to watch[00:02:29]
Running up in niggas cribs claiming that they heard shots[00:02:31]
It's a plot but busta can you tell me who's greedier [00:02:34]
Big corporations the pigs or the media [00:02:37]
Sign of the times terrorism on the rise[00:02:39]
Commercial airplanes falling out the sky like flies[00:02:42]
Make me wonder what secrets went down with bob brown ( )[00:02:44]
Who burnt churches to the ground with no evidence found [00:02:48]
It's not coincidence it's been too many studied incidents[00:02:50]
It coulda been the klan who put that bomb at the olympics[00:02:52]
But it probably was the fbi deep at the call[00:02:56]
'Cause if they make us all panic then they can start martial law[00:02:58]
Chorus:[00:03:01]
