Lyrics Reagan - Clean Album - Killer Mike

Our government has a firm policy not to capitulate to terrorist demands
That No-Concessions Policy remains in force
In spite of the wildly speculative and false stories about arms for hostages
And alleged ransom payments
We did not, repeat, did not trade weapons or anything else for hostages
Nor will we

The ballot or the bullet, some freedom or some
Will we ever do it big or just keep settling for lil'
We brag on having bread, but none of us are bakers
We all talk having greens, but none of us own acres
If none of us own acres and none of us grow wheat
Then who will feed our people when our people need to eat?
So it seems our people starve from lack of understanding
'Cause all we seem to give them is some ballin' and some dancin'
And some talkin' about our car and imaginary mansions
We should be indicted for b- we inciting
Hand the children death and pretend that it's exciting
We are advertisements for agony and pain
We exploit the youth, we tell them to join a gang
We tell them dope stories, introduce them to the game
Just like Oliver North introduced us to
In the 80s when the came on military plane

Few months ago, I told the American people I did not trade arms for hostages
My heart and my best intentions still tell me that's true
But the facts and the evidence tell me it is not

The end of the Reagan era, I'm like eleven or twelve or
Old enough to understand that had changed forever
They declared the war on, like a war on terror
But what it really did was let the police terrorize whoever
But mostly black boys, but they would call us
And lay us on our belly, while they fingers on they
Boots was on our head, they dogs was on our crotches
And they would beat us up if we had diamonds on our watches
And they would take our and moneys as they pick our pockets
I guess that that's the privilege of policing for some profits
But thanks to Reaganomics, prison turned to profits
'Cause free labor's the cornerstone of US economics
'Cause slavery was abolished, unless you are in prison
You think I am, then read the 13th Amendment
Involuntary servitude and slavery it prohibits
That's why they givin' offenders time in double digits

Ronald Reagan was a actor, not at all a factor
Just an employee of the country's real masters
Just like the Bushes, Clinton and Obama
Just another talking head telling lies on teleprompters
If you don't believe the theory, then argue with this logic
Why did Reagan and Obama both go after Gaddafi?
We invaded sovereign soil, going after oil
Taking countries is a hobby paid for by the oil lobby
Same as in Iraq and Afghanistan
And Ahmadinejad say they coming for Iran
They only love the rich and how they loathe the poor
If I say any more they might be at my door

Shh, who the f- is that staring in my window?
Doing that surveillance on Mr. Michael Render
I'm dropping off the grid before they pump the lead
I leave you with four words
I'm glad Reagan dead
