- Lowkey - Obama Nation with lyrics on screen and in description
[Intro]
This track is not an attack upon the American people,
It's an attack upon the system within which they live.
Since 1945 the United States has attempted to overthrow more than 50 foreign governments,
In the process the US has caused the end of life for several million people,
And condemned many millions more to a life of agony and despair.
[Verse 1]
The strength of your dreaming prevents you from reason,
The American dream only makes sense if you're sleeping,
It's just a cruel fantasy; their politics took my voice away,
But their music gave it back to me,
The land where the lumpen are consumed by consumption,
Killing themselves to shovel down food in abundance,
I guess a rapper from Britain is a rare voice,
America is capitalism on steroids,
Natives kept in casinos and reservations,
Displaced slaves never given reparations,
Take everything from Native Americans,
And wonder why i call it the racist experiment,
Afraid of your melanin, the same as it's ever been,
That aint gonna change with the race of the president,
I see imperialism under your skin tone,
You could call it Christopher Columbus syndrome.
[Chorus 2x]
Is it Obama's nation? Or an abomination?
Is it Obama's nation? Or an abomination?
Is it Obama's nation? Or an abomination?
Doesn't make any difference when they bomb your nation.
Oh say can you see by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through perilous fight,
For the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming.
[Verse 2]
The world's entertainer, the world's devastator,
From Venezuela, to Mesopotamia,
Your cameras lie, cause they have to hide the savage crimes,
Committed on leaders that happen to try and nationalize,
Eating competitions? while the worlds been starving,
Beat up communism with the help of Bin Laden,
Where would your war of terror be without that man,
Every day you create more Nidal Hassan's,
Kill a man from the military, you're a weirdo,
But kill a wog from the Middle East you're a hero,
Your country is causing screams that never reach your ear holes,
America inflicted a million Ground Zero's,
Follow the dollar and swallow your humanity,
Soldier's committing savagery you never even have to see,
Those mad at me, writing emails angrily,
I'm not anti-America, America is anti-me!
[Chorus 2x]
Is it Obama's nation? Or an abomination?
Is it Obama's nation? Or an abomination?
Is it Obama's nation? Or an abomination?
Doesn't make any difference when they bomb your nation.
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night, that our flag was still there,
Oh say does that star spangled banner yet wave,
For the land of the free and the home of the brave,
[Verse 3]
I don't care if him and Cheney are long lost relations,
What matters more is the policies, I lost my patience,
Stop debating bringing race into the conversation,
Occupation and cooperation equals profit making,
It's over; people wake up from the dream now,
Nobel peace prize, Jay Z on speed-dial,
It's the substance within, not the colour of your skin,
Are you the puppeteer or the puppet on the string?,
So many believed it was instantly gonna' change,
There was still Dennis Ross, Brzezinski and Robert Gates,
What happened to Chas Freeman? (AIPAC),
What happened to Tristan Anderson?,
It's a machine that keeps that man breathing,
I have the heart to say what all these other rappers aren't,
Words like Iraq, Palestine, Afghanistan,
The wars on, and you morons were all wrong,
I call Obama a bomber cos those are your bombs.

One of my faves of all time,I'm white ,female and middle aged and I totally agree with this that's why I'm still here 10 years later
10 years later and this text is still the most real out there
"I can see imperialism under your skin tone
you could call it Christopher Columbus syndrome"
Think about it.......

Akala
Lowkey
Logic
Immortal Technique
They all spit the truth.
Thumbs up if you agree !
LOVE this song. Thanks for having the balls to post the truth about what's going on in this evil world! It's time for us to spread this so others can change their minds and believe The Gospel of Jesus Christ before it's too late.
Do It Like The Bereans I guarantee that he doesn't agree with Christianity either
@Jozef Wicks-Sharp LOL. I don't care if he's muslim, in the sense of a judgemental way. He's singing truth about the America and its government.
@@prestongarvey9767 So? Do you expect me to point any fingers? I agree with his song. What's so wrong about that? It's his choice, what he believes.
Lowkey spoke nothing but truth here.🔥

@TheMangoMontango what war has ended or tried to end? What has he changed? What has promised to change during his campaign and what has he changed now? He is a war criminal.
You won’t hear songs with this level of passion from “Liberals” when they talk about Trump...
Or about Bush, Obama’s less smooth talking long lost relation, and his best bud.
LONG LIVE IRAQ!

You just do it

No actually, I “will only approve comments" that are not spam. By the way, “uploader” isn’t a word. I always approve negative and critical comments, including the one you’ve just posted. Please get your facts straight before you assume what is incorrect.
@callumbrowns
Wiz Khalifa adds to the disgrace of Hip Hop, He talks about drugs, money, cars, etc.
@SkeezyHardcore Did you listen? You realize for men without borders America and Britain are the same. They do not call one or the other home. It is simply a point on the earth that they own. If you are American. You should do some research on the Federal Reserve banking system. As my ignorance eludes even myself. You do not need to get hostile. This is merely an attempt to bring some insight into play. Albeit not my own. As they say; google it!
i like the video
Umm wrong lyrics.
super burn
"Christopher Columbus SYndrome." so sick... Research him if you don't get the reference.
lowkey over wiz kalifah thumbs up
A lot worse if he's replaced with Romney.
