Intro: Mumia Abu Jamal

The new name in the twenty-first century of Imperialism

Is really globalization

And when you think about that

When you read about that

When you study about that

Globalization really means the Globalization of Capital

You don't hear people talking about the Globalization of Labor

But you know working people all around the world

Have more in common with each other

Than they have with their own so-called leaders or the rulers

The ruling class that is of the Society

So people should uh Globalize resistance

Globalize and that means...


[Verse 1: Stic.man]

Globalization..

Some kids get bombs for breakfast

And blowed away on their birthday

Ask the lil' orphan boy on Iraqi soil

What he think about the U.S.A

Today was the worst day of his life

Uncle Sam killed both his parents

His village was burned to the ground

And they left him and his lil' brother to perish

Cus they want the oil in the soil

Like vampires they come for blood

In the name of freedom and justice

Nowhere to hide nowhere to run

First they send the soldiers

Then come McDonald's and Coca Cola

Toxic western culture

And once they take over its over...


[Hook]

Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Halliburton, 7-up, Walmart, Exxon

Who cares if you get stepped on, Get stepped on

In the name of progress they business has no conscience

All they want is profits It's obvious in Africa

It's obvious in Mexico, It's obvious in Cuba

It's obvious in Palestine, American invasion

Foreign occupation, Covert operations

Oppressive domination, Resiiiiiiist...

[Verse 2: M1]

Yo, 2012 is approaching

No food on the shelves and the system is broken

It's out of order, we out of water, and out of time

Out of my mind, out of prime time with the propaganda

Make you wanna snap make ya pop the hammer

Call it what it is use proper grammar

Land grab call that gentrification

Micro-chip Identification

Thats just fear and intimidation

Nine O'clock news interpretation

(?Break of a Nation?) that's

Got nothing to lose but our chains

Got nothing to use but our brains

Stop following the rules

And lets change the game, Resiiiiist...


[Hook]

Blackwater, Ford Trucks, APAC, Starbucks, IMF, Chevron

Who cares if you get stepped on, get stepped on

In the name of progress

They business has no conscious

All they want is profits it's obvious in Africa

It's obvious in Mexico, It's obvious in Cuba

It's obvious in Palestine, American invasion

Foreign occupation, Covert operations

Oppressive domination, Resiiiiiiist...


[Outro]

These are the times Baby

These are the times, scene of a crime

These are the times baby to free your mind, to free your mind
