Story behind the song
I listen to a lot of talk radio. The topic I'm hearing the most is about the war in Iraq. So told Marsonette that we should do a song expressing what many people are thinking about the situation in Iraq. We wrote the song, I arrange the layout for the track and Herbert L. Sanders, Jr produced a monster track. I suggested to Marsonette that these dudes from Canada (Politic Live) would add a some flava to the project if I could get them interested. They listened to what we had and Young Mav a member of Politic Live dropped some hard hitting lyrics. That's it!
Lyrics
Rape and Pillage politics will bring promise of economics
Behind every war is a project for profit
How can I come in peace, if I come with a piece
That's ignorant, but it's the request of our leadership
Propaganda might as well be a cancer
They both man made and we can't find answers
Until the gangsta 8 removes it's policies
Of hypocrisy, we can never find true democracy
Cause democracy ain't about ROI's
But to get that return, you and I must die
My views aren't political
They represent the thoughts of average individuals
Who don't wanna hold guns to innocent people
Weapons of destruction, we don't believe you
Mis-education will only close doors
So when I say No more, you say War
Performed by Young Mav of Politic Live
Written by M. Wilson (SOCAN/ASCAP)
