Lyrics
[Yas]
[Arabic talking:] god forbid us from the devil
Let me introduce myself my name's yassim
Been a muslim my whole life and I ain't never met no terrorist
Why would I watch tv? they always try to embarrass us
Nine eleven was disasterous. fuck those devil advocates
My religion is peace, love and happiness
This shock cannot be televised for free
'Cuz bright lights and dead bodies make for great tv
The world is panicking, mr bush is mad again
Watching them bombs drop, makes me sick to my abdomen
What doesn't kill you can only make you strong
Then I feel like I'm carrying the weight of the world with one arm
When bombs are being dropped from planes, media affects our brains
Remember it's innocent children being slain
And I'm feeling their pain and their bloodshed
How many more will end up dead?
My brother mohhamed cant get through customs
Harrased and spit upon, the price for being muslim
Fuck your sympathy, don't look at me differently
Don't repeat history. war is hate. salam

"Peace and blessings on to you"
[Yas]
In this day and age it's rage and life destruction
Lyposuction and breast implants, like a hollywood star
With her lips and chest enhanced
It's just plastic surgery for the less advanced
White lies, great for religion, sex, and churches
Politicians sniffing white lies behind closed curtains
Overpaid athletes stick steroids in ass cheeks
Million dollar salaries depend on players stat sheets
The young and homeless live amongst the trash heeps
Last week's news is forgotten, dead stiff and rotten
Like the corpse of andy hoffman
They say peace sells, but who's buying? I say sex sells
In these days and times, the public loves it
They can't get enough of it, anything else is rubbish
Mp3s and burnt cds, lead us to believe that music is now free
The industry's in a panic, major labels running frantic
World's best mechanic couldn't fix it
Empty seats means kids can't afford a ticket, and it's a problem
Like teenaged love without a condom
[Bif naked - arabic]
"Peace and blessings on to you"
