Lowkey - Skit 1 (Soundtrack to the Struggle) lyrics

What Malcolm X said when he got silenced
By Elijah Mohammed was in fact true
America's chickens, are coming home to roost
We took this country by terror
Away from the Sioux
The Apache, the Arowak, the
Comanche, the Arapahoe, the Navajo terrorism
We took Africans from their country
To build our way of
Ease and kept them enslaved
And living in fear terrorism
We bombed Granada and killed
Innocent civilians, babies
Non-military personnel
We bombed the black civilian community
Of Panama with stealth
Bombers and killed unarmed teenagers
And toddlers, pregnant mothers
And hardworking fathers
We bombed Qaddafi's home and killed his child
Blessed are they who bash your
Children's head against a rock
We bombed Iraq
We killed unarmed civilians trying
To make a living
We bombed a plant in Sudan to payback
For the attack on our embassy
Killed hundreds of hardworking people
Mothers and fathers who left home
To go that day not knowing that they would
Never get back home we bombed Hiroshima
We bombed Nagasaki and we nuked far
More than the thousands in
New York and the Pentagon and
We never batted an eye
Kids playing in the playground
Mothers picking up
Children after school, civilians
Not soldiers
People just trying to make it day by day
We have supported state terrorism against
The Palestinians and Black
South Africans and now we
Are indignant because the stuff we have done
Overseas is now brought
Right back to our own front yards
America's chickens are coming home to roost
Violence begets violence
Hatred begets hatred
And terrorism begets terrorism
