Mass destruction - live from brixton - april 8, 2011 Lyrics

My dad came into my room holdin' his hat

I knew he was leavin'

He sat on my bed told me some facts

Son, "I have a duty, callin' on me

You and your sister be brave my little soldier

And don't forget all I told you

Your the mister of the house now remember this

And when you wake up in the mornin' give your momma a kiss"

Then I had to say goodbye

In the mornin' woke Momma with a kiss on each eyelid

Even though I'm only a kid

Certain things can't be hid

Momma grabbed me

Held me like I was made of gold

But left her in the stories untold

I said, "Momma it will be alright

When daddy comes home, tonight"

Whether long range weapon or suicide bomb

A wicked mind is a weapon of mass destruction

Whether you're soar away sun or BBC one

Misinformation is a weapon of mass destruct'

If you're a Caucasian or a poor Asian

Racism is a weapon of mass destruction

Whether inflation or globalization

Fear is a weapon of mass destruction

Whether Haliburton, Enron or anyone

Greed is a weapon of mass destruction

We need to find courage, overcome

Inaction is a weapon of mass destruction

The skin under my chin is explodin' again

I'm gettin' stress from some other children

I'm holdin' it in

We takin' sides like a politician

And if I get friction, we get to fightin'

I defend my dad, he's the best of all men

And whatever he's doin', he's doin' the right thing

It's frightenin', but it makes me mad

Why do all these people seem to hate my dad

And if that ain't enough now I get these spots

I go to sleep every night with my stomach in knots

And what's more, I can hear momma next door

Explore the radio for reports of war

And all we ever seem to do

Is hide the tears

Seem like daddy been gone for years

But he was right

Now I'm geared up for the fight

And he would be proud of me

If my daddy came home tonight

Listen me calmly

Whether long range weapon or suicide bomber

A wicked mind is a weapon of mass destruction

Whether you're soar away sun or BBC one

Misinformation is a weapon of mass destruct'

If you're a Caucasian or a poor Asian

Racism is a weapon of mass destruction

Whether inflation or globalization

Fear is a weapon of mass destruction

Whether Haliburton or Enron or anyone

Greed is a weapon of mass destruction

We need to find courage, overcome

Inaction is a weapon of mass destruction

My story stops here, lets be clear

This scenario is happenin' everywhere

And you ain't goin' to Nirvana or Farvana

You're comin' right back here to live out your karma

With even more drama than previously, seriously

Just how many centuries have we been

Waitin' for someone else to make us free

And we refuse to see

That people overseas suffer just like we

Bad leadership and ego's unfettered and free

Who feed one the people they're supposed to lead

I don't need good people to pray and wait

For the Lord to make it all straight

There's only now, do it right

'Causes I don't want your daddy, leaving home tonight
