da "Sonic Jihad"
Testo ripreso da questo sito

paris-thinkerThe song that really made heads turn was by Bay Area artist Paris who came out of retirement and released a 6 minute missive called What Would You Do? that went into great detail about The Caryle Group, Bush’s relationship to the Bin Laden family and the hawkish action plans of the Neo-cons serving in Bushs cabinet. Paris gave the song away for free and then followed it up with an entire antiwar album called Sonic Jihad which went on to sell over 200 thousand units. Another great anti-war cut off that album was ‘Sheep to the Slaughter‘.

George W. Bush:
Good evening, I would like to report on the state of our war against the American people. We're mounting a sustained campaign, a crackdown on every American and every person of every faith in every nation, and to bring them to justice. All missions are being executed according to plan; without warning or provocation Americans are being swept up in an international dragnet. Thousands of FBI agents are on the trail of other citizens here and abroad. It has everything to do with hate and evil and murder and prejudice. America is strong. . ."

What would you do if you
Knew all the things we knew
Would you stand up for truth
Or would you turn away too?

And then what if you saw
All of the things that's wrong
Would you stand tall and strong
Or would you turn and walk away?

What would you do if you
Knew all the things we knew
Would you stand up for truth
Or would you turn away too?

I see a message from the government, like every day
I watch, and listen, and call 'em all suckers
They warnin me about Osama or whatever
Pitchin me buyin this scam, I said never

You ain't doin to a hard truth soldier spittin
I stake a [ ] to die a loose commission
It's all a part of fightin Devil-State mind control
And all about the battle for your body, mind and soul

And now I'm hopin you don't close your mind so they shape ya
Don't forget they made us slaves, gave us AIDS and raped us
Another Bush season mean another war for profit
All that's secret so the public never fit to stop it

The Illuminati, Triple Six, all connected
Stole the polls, they control the race and take elections
It's the Skull and Bones, Freemason Kill Committee
See the Dragon get [ ] in every city

What would you do if you
Knew all the things we knew
Would you stand up for truth
Or would you turn away too?

Now ask yourself who's the one with the most to gain?
'Fore Nine Eleven motherfuckers couldn't stand his name
Even niggers wavin flags like they lost they mind
Everybody got opinions but don't know the time

'Cause America's been took, it's plain to see
The oldest trick in the book is make an enemy
A phony evil so the government can do its dirt
And take away your freedom, lock and load, beat and search
And nothin's changed but my colored people locked in prison

These pigs still beat us but it seems we forgettin
But I remember 'fore September how these devils do it
Fuck Giuliani, ask Diallo how he's doin
We in the streets holler "Jail To The Thief" follow

Wavin flags bring these Dragons to they knees
Oil Blood Money make these killers ripe old
Suspicious suicides, people dyin, never told
It's all a part of playin God so you think we need him

While bein Ashcroft, take away your rights to freedom
Bear witness to the sickness of these dictators
Hope you understand the time, brother, 'cause it's major

What would you do if you
Knew all the things we knew
Would you stand up for truth
Or would you turn away too?
