Download Blood On Ya Hands by CTRAFFIK.
In honor of the most patriotic of all patriotic American holidays celebrating patriotic American acts I give to you this latest single from “Rushed Again 2“!
The hook was inspired by the events in Fallujah, Iraq Dec 2004. The concept was also inspired by George Carlin’s comedy, namely blaming this who big mess on those who directly participate, support and cheer lead for more war and homicide overseas. From the perspective of those foreigners on the receiving-end of the warfare, its obvious who the perpetrators are. Look at the stripes, weapons, insignias, faces, etc.
Lyrics for Blood On Ya Hands:
Intro:
CTRAFFIK, Getting Rushed Again
You getting rushed Again (x4)
You trying to act like you don’t know
You just focusing on your little TV Shows
But yo! You can’t ignore the disaster
The war is in your name you bastards!
Hook (x2):
Children getting killed and women getting raped
Entire towns are flattened like a fucking pancake
Stop frontin’ (stop frontin)
The blood is on yo hands too
Stop frontin’
The blood is on yo hands too
Verse 1:
The guns are American, the stripes are American,
The uniforms American, occupation’s American.
The bases are American, the missiles are American.
And what’s worse? The Volunteers are American.
That means, you werent even drafted on the scene.
A little college money or whatever kind of green that they flashed in your face,
Now grenades shatter dreams, knawmean?
You either kill for duty or for greed.
And plus, don’t forget the parents on the other side,
Giving up they children to go and practice homicide.
Like “Here Uncle Sam, you can train them to be killers,
If you send them back dead I’ll have patriotic feelings!”
Fuck that! I’m not that heartless to sacrifice my children.
And the ones that do it freely this is sort of they religion.
With their hands on their hearts for the Star Spangled rhythms.
Tears down their face, praying to the State.
God forgive them.
Hook
Verse 2:
Yo, the tanks are American, the bullets are American.
The drones are American, fighter jets are American.
The general’s American, the plans are American
and what’s worse? All the funding is American.
That means, the military aint running a fund raiser.
They aint selling girl scout cookies, where them guns came from?
I’m a have to say YOU.
The American tax payer your bills came due.
You aint even excited about the war no more.
Caught up in your tabloids and reality shows.
On April 15th though you giving up the dough, like a pretty lil’ hoe
“Here, kill some more! But don’t show me pictures of mangled corpses,
Of Children with their brains splattered all on they porches, just
Tell me that we’re winning and the oil’s still flowing,
It don’t matter who you killing, just as long as they are foreigners”
Hook
Verse 3:
The Military needs three things to go to war,
Number 1: your consent
Number 2: your dough
Number 3: warm bodies to take arms and go,
And you control how it is they getting all of those.
And they can’t have the other two without your consent.
Why you think they’re putting propaganda all up in the press?
See, the hardest part of all is to have you convinced.
Once they got you in the bag then the killing will commence…
Then the killing with commence,
Once they got you in the bag then the killing will commence,
The hardest part is to have you convinced,
Once they got you in the bag then the killing will commence (damn!)
Outro (x2):
You trying to act like you don’t know
you just focusing on your little TV Shows
But yo! You can’t ignore the disaster
The war is in your name you bastards!
