Politicians and power hoarders
Narrow minded sycophants
Erect walls and fences and call them borders
Creating prejudice with words like immigrant
God forgive them their ignorance
Ever since the beginning of time
Every government has been guilty of
Perpetrating the very same crime
Against humanity and brotherly love
Soiled then slain, the death of the dove
Perverting scripture and holy scroll
They twist and warp religion
To suit their endgame of complete control
In the name of God we commit our greatest sin
Warring in God’s name I assure you is not God’s vision
Evoked images of Crusade and Hajj
Cries for Jihad and Holy War
Enforced by bullet and badge
Their differences we underscore
The Establishment brainwashes the disadvantaged and the poor
Spoon-fed a steady diet of slanted statistics since youth
Propagated by the media a practice to deceive
They’ve told us their lies for so long we can no longer detect the truth
We have been manipulated to believe
And all we do is shrug and sigh and heave
Fly high we our flags flap unfurled
At every turn we are pointed out our difference
We turn our back on the rest of the world
Disguised as patriotism we pledge our oath of allegiance
God forgive us our ignorance
God forgive us our ignorance…
