Ibn Hassam

Greed
Causing innocent blood to flow
Entire culture, lost in the overthrow
They came to seize, take whatever they please
Then all they gave back was death and disease

My people were left with no choice but to decide
To conform to a system responsible for genocide
Responsible for genocide, responsible for genocide

My people's culture was strong it was pure
And if not for that white greed, it would've endured
My people were left with no choice but to decide
To conform to a system
Their minds did slay
Their souls encaged
I feel the rage
Its brutality can never be undone
But the sun is not yet set
The bass and drums and microphone a threat
That's when ya investigate the crimes from the inside
And see that they're responsible for genocide
Responsible for genocide, responsible for genocide

Ya cram ya culture down my throat
Say I'm inferior when I find that I choke
You fill my mind with a false sense of history
And then you wonder why I have no identity?

Well I'll strike a match and it'll catch and spread the insight
We need a tiny fire burning bright
Shedding light on the darkness of greed

A yes yes yall
And you don't stop
Shedding light on the darkness of greed
A yes yes yall
And you don't stop
Shedding light on the darkness of greed
