lyrics

Blankets of smallpox
Warm hearts of the wicked

This is state-sponsored terror

Alcohol fueling
The fire of hatred

This is state-sponsored terror

Influx of cocaine
Fueled by trade imbalance

This is state-sponsored terror

Rounding up of Jews
In concentration camps

This is state-sponsored terror

Arrests of Japanese-Americans
Into internment camps

This is state-sponsored terror

Bombing of MOVE members
By police in Philly

This is state-sponsored terror

Who strikes fear, and who causes terror
Who’s to call another wrong?
Who strikes fear, and who causes terror
Who’s to call another wrong?
Who strikes fear, and who causes terror
Who’s to call another wrong?

I could easily add to these lists
More and more number terrorists
I could easily add to these lists
More and more number terrorists
I could easily add to these lists
More and more number terrorists

Let’s unpack this term
Which labels people based on outside opinions
How can we know what anyone’s intentions truly are?
Who are we to label killers “terrorists” based on motive?
Who cares about motive when lives are torn apart or destroyed?
When will we start holding our country accountable for the uncountable atrocities it has committed?
