"The economy right now, is extremely supportive of the president and his

policies"

Singing:

Telling lies, to our vision

Telling lies, to our children

Telling lies, to our babies

Only truth, can take us away



Verse 1:

You can't fool all the people all of the time

But if you fool the right ones, then the rest will fall behind

Tell me who's got control of your mind? your world view?

Is it the news or the movie you're taking your girl to? (uh)

Know what i'm sayin cause Uncle Sam got a plan

If you examine what they tellin us then you will understand

What they plantin in the seeds of the next generation

Feeding our children miseducation

No one knows if there's UFO's or any life on mars

Or what they do when they up in the stars

Because i don't believe a word of what the president said

He filling our head with lies got us hypnotised

When he be speaking in cold words about crime and poverty

Drugs, welfare, prisons, guns and robbery

It really means us, there's no excuse for the slander

But what's good for the goose, is still good for the gander

See...



Chorus:

I don't believe Bob Marley died from cancer

31 years ago i woulda been a panther

They killed Huey cause they knew he had the answer

The views that you see in the news is propaganda



Singing:

Telling lies, to our vision

Telling lies, to our children

Telling lies, to our babies

Only truth, can take us away



Verse 2:

I don't want no computer chip in my arm

I don't wanna die by a nuclear bomb

I say we all rush the pentagon, pull out guns

And grab the intercom, my first word's will be I believe

Man made God, outta ignorance and fear

If God made man, then why the hell would he put us here?

I thought he's supposed to be the all loving

The same God who let Hitler put the Jews in the oven

We don't fall for the regular shit, they try to feed us

All this half-ass leadership, flippin position

They turn politcian and shut the hell up and follow tradition

For your TV screen, is telling lies to your vision

Every channel got some brainwashed cop shit to watch

Running up in niggas cribs claiming that they heard shots

It's a plot, but busta can you tell me who's greedier?

Big corporations, the pigs or the media?

Sign of the times, terrorism on the rise

Commercial airplanes, falling out the sky like flies

Make me wonder what secrets went down with Bob Brown (?)

Who burnt churches to the ground with no evidence found?

It's not coincidence, it's been too many studied incidents

It coulda been the Klan who put that bomb at the Olympics

But it probably was the FBI, deep at the call

Cuz if they make us all panic then they can start martial law



Chorus:

I don't believe Bob Marley died from cancer

31 years ago i woulda been a panther

They killed Huey cause they knew he had the answer

The views that you see in the news is propaganda



I don't believe Bob Marley died from cancer

31 years ago i woulda been a panther

They killed Huey cause they knew he had the answer

The views that you see in the news is muthafuckin propaganda



Singing:

Police is telling lies fooling millions

What are they teaching our kids in these school buildings?

Televised, enterprised in all the killing

Controlling our lives, this ain't living

No this ain't living

FBI, CIA

ATF, KKK

IRS, TNT

CBS, NBC

Singing:

Telling lies, to our vision

News snippet:

"uh, we view each other uh, with uh, a great love and a great understanding

and that we

try to expand this to the general, uh, black population and also people,

oppressed people all over the world, and, i think that uh, we differ from

uhmm... uh, some other groups simply because we understand the system better

than uh, most uh, groups understand the system, and uh, with this

realisation, uh, we attempt to form a strong political base based in the

community with the only strength that we have and that's the strength of uh,

a potentially destructive force if we don't get freedom."
