[Mos Def - talking]
Man, you hear this bullshit they be talkin'
Every day, man
It's like these motherfuckers is just like professional liars
YouknowwhatI'msayin? It's wild
Listen
[Hook - Mos Def]
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
[Verse 1 - Immortal Technique]
I pledge no allegiance, nigga fuck the president's speeches
I'm baptized by America and covered in leeches
The dirty water that bleaches your soul and your facial features
Drownin' you in propaganda that they spit through the speakers
And if you speak about the evil that the government does
The Patriot Act'll track you to the type of your blood
They try to frame you, and say you was tryna sell drugs
And throw a federal indictment on niggaz to show you love
This shit is run by fake Christians, fake politicians
Look at they mansions, then look at the conditions you live in
All they talk about is terrorism on television
They tell you to listen, but they don't really tell you they mission
They funded Al-Qaeda, and now they blame the Muslim religion
Even though Bin Laden, was a CIA tactician
They gave him billions of dollars, and they funded his purpose
Fahrenheit 9/11, that's just scratchin' the surface
[Hook]
[Verse 2 - Immortal Technique]
They say the rebels in Iraq still fight for Saddam
But that's bullshit, I'll show you why it's totally wrong
Cuz if another country invaded the hood tonight
It'd be warfare through Harlem, and Washington Heights
I wouldn't be fightin' for Bush or White America's dream
I'd be fightin' for my people's survival and self-esteem
I wouldn't fight for racist churches from the south, my nigga
I'd be fightin' to keep the occupation out, my nigga
You ever clock someone who talk shit, or look at you wrong?
Imagine if they shot at you, and was rapin' your moms
And of course Saddam Hussein had chemical weapons
We sold him that shit, after Ronald Reagan's election
Mercenary contractors fightin' a new era
Corporate military bankin' off the war on terror
They controllin' the ghetto, with the failed attack
Tryna distract the fact that they engineerin' the crack
So I'm strapped like Lee Malvo holdin' a sniper rifle
These bullets'll touch your kids, and I don't mean like Michael
Your body be sent to the morgue, stripped down and recycled
I fire on house niggaz that support you and like you
Cuz innocent people get murdered in the struggle daily
And poor people never get shit and struggle daily
This ain't no alien conspiracy theory, this shit is real
Written on the dollar underneath the Masonic seal
(I don't rap for dead presidents
I'd rather see the president dead
It's never been said but I set precedents)--[Eminem]

[Hook]
Bin Laden ucciso ed il suo corpo inabissato...
Tutti uccisi quelli che lo accompagnavano, nessun prigioniero, nessun testimone...
Non per fare l'esperto dell'antiterrorismo o l'invasato dietrologo... Però non vi viene da pensare che invece Osama sia stato "fatto sparire", catturato e condotto in un luogo segreto per "lavorarlo" meglio? Oppure che non sia morto affatto? Oppure che le circostanze segretissime della sua eliminazione servano per crearne un fantasma ad uso e consumo degli uni e degli altri, per perpetrare le guerre?
E anche a non voler pensare simili "stupidaggini", ma secondo voi non era giusto che prima di farne sparire il corpo tra i flutti dell'oceano lo mostrassero al mondo? Cazzo, 10 anni guerra, 10 anni di morti, milioni e milioni di dollari investiti in una gigantesca caccia all'uomo, in una devastante macchina di morte!
E non avevano diritto i sopravvissuti ed i familiari delle vittime dell'11 settembre di vedere, di vederlo per davvero, morto e stecchito il mandante della strage dei loro cari, dei loro amici?
Non avevamo diritto tutti noi di vedere con i nostri occhi il corpo del principe del terrore?
Ma come? Avete fatto tutto 'sto scarmazzo, avete messo a ferro e fuoco il mondo e poi non ce lo fate neppure vedere il nemico n.1 dell'umanità?
E' stato solo l'ennesima conferma che non è finita e che non finirà mai...

La canzone contiene alla fine un sample di We As Americans di eminem che dice "non canto per i presidenti morti" cioé per i soldi (sui dollari sono stampate le teste dei presidenti del passato) "piuttosto vorrei vedere morto il presidente".
