Writings on Disobedience and Democracy Vinnie Paz

[Intro]
"We have to stop thinking that we must have military solutions
To the problems we face in the world"
Yeah
"The solutions that we need are..."
Picking up where we left off
"...dealing of sickness, disease, and hunger
Now that’s fundamental
If you want to end terrorism, you have to stop being terrorists
Which is what war is"

[Verse 1: Vinnie Paz]
They told you World War II was a people’s war
Logic should have told them it was Imperialist war
18 million served in the armed forces
10 million more overseas – that’s enormous
25 million workers paid for war bonds
All of the while people question why the war’s on
There was an undercurrent of reluctance
There were under-publicized signs of resistance
Hitler’s Germany was unspeakable evil
But let’s discuss real quick what we did to people
We opposed the Haitian revolution
We turned Guam, Puerto Rico, and Hawaii into institutions
Pretended to help Cuba win freedom from Spain
This country’s built on the blood of other people’s pain
Blacks is looking at anti-Semitism in Germany
And saw the situation here was mirroring it perfectly
We appeased Hitler all throughout the '30s
Only years later we pretended we was worried
Roosevelt was hesitant to be gritty
And caused a resolution to be buried in committee
