[01:10.44]'cause that food drop parachute does not come everyday
[01:13.07]I'm from where people pray to the gods of their conquerors
[01:15.47]and practically every president's a money launderer
[01:17.05]From the only place democracy is acceptable
[01:21.76]Is if America candidate is electable
[01:24.66]And they might even have a black president, but he's useless

[02:06.12]Military is like the mafia: you pay for protection

[02:25.98]Rebelde conocido, enterado vivo, como otro argentino desparecido
[02:30.76]cause Rico laws don't apply to the CIA
[02:34.63]and mother fuckers make sneakers for a quarter a day
[02:37.32]I'm from where they overthrow democratic leaders
[02:39.99]not for the people but for the Wall Street Journal readers
[02:42.89]from where blacks, indigenous peoples and Asians were once
[02:45.60]slaves of the Caucasians and it's amazing how they trained them
[02:49.33]to be racist against themselves in a place they were raised in
[02:51.76]and you kept us caged in
[02:54.26]destroyed our culture and said that you civilized us
[02:56.59]raped our woman and when we were born you despised us
[02:59.32]gentrified us, agent provocateurs divide us
[03:02.48]and crucified every revolutionary messiah
[03:05.08]so I'ma start a global riot
[03:07.06]that not even your fake
[03:08.33]anti-communist dictators can keep quiet
[03:10.33]fuck your charity medicine, try to murder me
[03:13.14]the immunizations you gave us were full of mercury
[03:15.47]so now I see the Third World like the rap game soldier
[03:19.05]nationalize the industry and take it over!
