The 4th Branch

The new age is upon us... and yet the past refuses to rest in its shallow grave
 ...for those who hide behind the false image of
 The son of man, shall stand before God! It has begun...
 The beginning of the end... yeah... yeah... yeah, yeah
 The voice of racism preaching the Gospel is devilish
 A fake church called the prophet Muhammad a terrorist
 Forgetting God is not religion, but a spiritual bond
 And Jesus is the most quoted prophet in the Qu'ran
 They bombed innocent people, trying to murder Saddam
 When you gave him those chemical weapons to go to war with Iran
 This is the information that they hold back from Peter Jennings
 Cause Condoleeza Rice is just a new age Sally Hemmings
 I break it down with critical language and spiritual anguish
 The Judas I hang with, the guilt of betraying Christ
 You murdered and stole his religion, and painting him white
 Translated in psychologically tainted philosophy
 Conservative political right wing, ideology
 Glued together sloppily, the blasphemy of a nation
 Got my back to the wall, cause I'm facing assassination
 Guantanamo Bay, federal incarceration
 How could this be, the land of the free, home of the brave?
 Indigenous holocaust, and the home of the slaves
 Corporate America, dancing offbeat to the rhythm
 You really think this country, never sponsored terrorism?
 Human rights violations, we continue the saga
 El Salvador and the Contras in Nicaragua
 And on top of that, you still wanna take me to prison
 Just cause I won't trade humanity for patriotism
 It's like MK-ULTRA, controlling your brain
 Suggestive thinking, causing your perspective to change
 They wanna rearrange the whole point of view of the ghetto
 The fourth branch of the government, want us to settle
 A bandana full of glittering, generality
 Fighting for freedom and fighting terror, but what's reality?
 Read about the history of the place that we live in
 And stop letting corporate news tell lies to your children
 Flow like the blood of Abraham through the Jews and the Arabs
 Broken apart like a woman's heart, abused in a marriage
 The brink of holy war, bottled up, like a miscarriage
 Embedded correspondents don't tell the source of the tension
 And they refuse to even mention, European intervention
 Or the massacres in Jenin, the innocent screams
 U.S. manufactured missiles, and M-16's
 Weapon contracts and corrupted American dreams
 Media censorship, blocking out the video screens
 A continent of oil kingdoms, bought for a bargain
 Democracy is just a word, when the people are starving
 The average citizen, made to be, blind to the reason
 A desert full of genocide, where the bodies are freezing
 And the world doesn't believe that you fighting for freedom
 Cause you fucked the Middle East, and gave birth to a demon
 It's open season with the CIA, bugging my crib
 Trapped in a ghetto region like a Palestinian kid
 Where nobody gives a fuck whether you die or you live
 I'm trying to give the truth, and I know the price is my life
 But when I'm gone they'll sing a song about Immortal Technique
 Who beheaded the President, and the princes and sheiks
 You don't give a fuck about us, I can see through your facade
 Like a fallen angel standing in the presence of God
 Bitch niggas scared of the truth, when it looks at you hard
 It's like MK-ULTRA, controlling your brain
 Suggestive thinking, causing your perspective to change
 They wanna rearrange the whole point of view in the ghetto
 The fourth branch of the government, want us to settle
 A bandana full of glittering, generality
 Fighting for freedom and fighting terror, but what's reality?
 Martial law is coming soon to the hood, to kill you
 While you hanging your flag out your project window
 Yeah.the fourth branch of the government aka the media seems to now have a retirement plan for ex-military officials as if their opinion was at all unbiased.
