lyrics
Kom-X They try to tell us that the Philippines is free but pull back the shades its a sham democracy the minute we speak out and try to seek the truth they’ll threaten yo' life with guns to silence you kidnappin innocence, an' callin em' guerrillas Philippine military butchers an' killas the judge was bribed, president kept it hidden the media forgot, but the people didn't the whole world shouting "Justice for Melissa" end the abductions, and prosecute the killas fight injustice anywhere it shows power to the people, cuz revolution grows ReVision So what you gonna do, just sit back and watch? Gotta flip the pyramid from the bottom to the top Hold the ones accountable responsible for actions Corruption: the common denominator, fractions The whole is equal to the sum of the parts Fighting everyday under the sun and the stars Fueled by the blood that pumps through our hearts Never settle for peace cuz it’s justice we want From the suffering inflicted by a crooked government Denying any role in the torture or punishment Never pledge allegiance til Babylon falls Cuz Justice for Melissa means justice for ALL Jedi Puppets trying to haunt so we resist against the beast Tax dollars to oppress, exploit and to repeat Feel the pain of Melissa justice covered by the sheets Abducted blind folded right on May 19th Butcher man thinks his proof would fix the situation Piling the guap when they say It's for the nation Stop selling our pride no more room for lies In the classroom what happened to the food for minds? But instead we using army fatigues Disappearances and victims killed off by elites Never stopping fist pumping justice we call Until this beast is put down freedom for all! Intellect The military still strapped with a .8 Mr. Butcher on the run for a package of weight After the resolution, the decision spat in her face Corruption run away, but they wind up back in their place Big warlords, snake like slumlords I shout justice at the top of my vocal cords Y'all feel me, they label us as enemies Uzi on their waist, arms long like a centipied The committee on human rights say the same shit Pullin' no evidence, they kill with the same clip Hidden suspect in the shadows of times Committin' torture crimes, goin' out of their minds Distractin' folks from the real enemy is still the same, the Philippines AFP 'Till then, it's Justice for Melissa Puppets hangin' by the thread, the real killers
