Thievery Corporation - Amerimacka

Just felt like sharing what I am listening to right now.

Thievery Corporation are a great band and write some quality, conscious music. I love how they combine various styles of music, from reggae to trip-hop, and put meaning into their songs. I haven't smoked a good spliff in years but this song makes me want to smoke a joint as I watch the stars on this little island they call the the isle of wight.

This particular song is relevant on so many levels, but none more so than with the fear mongering bills the USA government are trying to pass in congress regarding bitcoin and crypto-currencies. The IRS (mafia) trying to get their cut.

The wicked men of Babylon are losing and they know it, so have no fear.

I doubt these criminal bills will pass, but even if they do, there are always many other countries on this plane of light we call earth.

Bless it up!

Jon :)

Lyrics

Miss Liberty turn in a Jezebel
All the dreams you go sell, the whole them turn in a hell
Her bed of roses are filled with thorns
Her righteous robes are tattered and torn

If she had only stood for love, that would have been enough
She wouldn't have to hide her shame
If she had only stood for love, that would have been enough
But now she's burnt us all with her flames

Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful life
Amerimacka, is like licking honey off a knife
Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful sight
Amerimacka, don't be blinded by the light

The land of the free built on slavery
Our consciousness in captivity
Promise land is the liar's den
Your culture of greed has got to end

Now we're laying in the mud, looking up above
Tear wather just ah drop from the sky
They try to keep us in the mud, separating us from love
But me nah go let them conquer the I

Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful life
Amerimacka, is like licking honey off a knife
Amerimacka, oh what a beautiful sight
Amerimacka, don't be blinded by the light
