LYRICS
What's Peace when your present in a resident so decadent
who's negligence's evidenced by millions with out medicine.
And Iran were threatening with weapons meant to pressure them
callin up regiments it that peace Mr. President
even veterans on the ride back from Iraq
get sidetracked and find that they'll never get they lives back
What's peace when it's high jacked by politics so obvious
but they never acknowledge it cause they scared of the lobbyists
and then a tsunami hits and bodies get deposited
and blue water turns red like a communist
What's peace when Obama get attacked again because of his African heritage
And Republicans are backin the terrorists
and we lackin awareness so we revel in the destruction
of the indigenous people by a devil named Columbus
What's Peace in the shattered lands of Pakistan, Afghanistan,
where bombs hit like a batter ram and death is like and avalanche
see what's produced by savage hands that scatter clans
where troops don't have a battle plan and most youth don't have a chance
none of us deserve a prize for peace we just want a life of ease
talkin revolution but never ready to fight and bleed
What's peace when police put a hurtin on a person
who they supposed to be serving cause he didn't tuck his shirt in
What's peace when you burdened with poverty and you gotta breath
and no Obama's speech gonna put collard greens in ya pot to eat
And Oprah goes to Copenhagen but has no relations
children broke on the payment gettin smoked outside her station
What's peace when you waiting for 9 years in the state pen
as the days went more patient now they saying deportation
has the lord forsaken us we get awards for satan's lust
go to war with hatred plus the cause we just make it up
What's Peace when these racist want civil war to end it all
cause the President's black that's what you wanna kill em for
we say stop the violence but still there's more I'm feeling for
mother's that lost they sons praying that God heal they sores
this is my life blood I'm spilling forth
what's peace when every week you drop the realists chords and you still ignored

Jasiri X is the truth.

[mumsdawerd]

@jasirix your reference is Thanksgiving right bruh'? Didn't Columbus and his Pilgrims trade guns and ammo for fur with the native americans or something? LOL, sorry if i'm wrong, it's been a while since i've cracked a history book open.

[youherbert09x]

Good song. Somebody needed to rap about peace. Everyone always got to give someone else shit we here in America want to fight and argue with each other when we got troops that r fight for us!

[Pharaoh1996]

damn this real music..keep the lyrics coming

@angwon360 In 1491, there were over five hundred thousand Arawak and Taino people living in the Antilles and Hispanola. In 1494, there were twenty-five. In 1501, there weren't any more Taino, and the Arawak were dying out in Cuba and the Bahamas. Bad luck? Not according to Bartolomé de las Casas, who documented the enslavement and genocide of the Taino, Arawak, and Caribs.

[MrReed401]

real hip hop

[kevyster]

btw, without Columbus the Indian Horse culture would never existed. I guess they didn't mention that in the "Books" your slave master gave you. Nor did they mention thta teh genocide was a result of diseases Indians didn't have cures for. Stop degrading real genocides like Sudan- that you dems are silent over- Holocaust, rape of Nanking,etc with your delusions

[kevyster]

@jasirix I guess you didn't read about the human sacrifaces that happened long before Columbus prove the world wasn't flat. You're just ablithering leftist moron who whines over "The poor " 9/11 dancing Muslims but is silent over Sudan. Get off the kool-aid and blue pill. Btrw, you proved how much a racist you truly are when you defend every act of bigotry possible so long as it's from your side but whine over "racism" that only you can see.

[chj2]

@Aegius: Ok, so would you care to tell us just HOW & WHY the bubonic plague came about?

[chj2]

Jasiri, keep bringing the truth. The only thing I disagree with you on, though, is support of terrorism: that's not exclusive to the Republicans. Always looking forward to your next release. Peace.

[Priceless2124]

Love everything this guy does, keep talking the truth, this is real hiphop, keep bringing it back bro
