lyrics

[CHORUS]

Pimp - pimp - pimp - (p)Imperialism
They stole all our land and they raped all our women

(p)Imperialism, (p)Imperialism
Since they became the man, they treat us like children

(say it) Pimp - pimp - pimp - (p)Imperialism
They put our bodies to work while our soul's in a prison

(p)Imperialism, (p)Imperialism
Only a chorus like this could get you to listen




[VERSE1]

Acknowledge, this ain't about race, it's fact homage,
The weight of the world's on impoverished backs piled on

The third world shrugs like Atlas, the rich like Kanye
Resources deported to the new age Pompeii

_That's ready to suffocate, and never resuscitate
Ash in your lungs and brain *cough*

Excuse me don't lose me, the Hutus killed Tutsis
But Kagame wasn't trained in Africa, homie

Pardon me don't part from me, Puerto Rico's a colony
American robbery, jus ask Filiberto

Open his coffin and question the man's cuerpo
Be careful for queso you're muerto to the central

Intelly, in Iran they had General
Zahedi, in Chile they had Pinochet boot Allende

_I see it simply, if you're anti-globalist
Notice this they will invade 'soon as you press play


[CHORUS]


[VERSE2]


Parasitic as a pair of cynics stealing your essence essentially
The scent of descent of our cents since sense lost sentience's set us free

_But not from tyranny.. more like our liberties
Corporations outsourced their national identities

The top multinationals just happened to go overseas
Factories a factor concluding America's chapter

Bearin disaster, our government's masters evacu
-ating and abiding our decaying body and all that is inside it

No jobs sighted, so one-sided,
So long itis, hello genociders

Yellow friends of midas, a little too touchy feely
Money freely doubled subtle-ly we're sold cheaply

Whored off with no more protection
Beggin for disease contexually transmitted

Admit it, we're in it and it's no scrimmage we're finished
Unless we committed to step into the bubble and End the Fed
