about

The peoples addiction to capitalism over humanism in America.

lyrics

[Verse 1:]
I was a fiend before I became a teen
I was addicted to television, bad food and ice cream
My people procrastinators so when hip-hop was originated
We fitted like pieces of puzzles, complicated
Someone grabbed the mic and tried to say, "Free ‘em all!"
They tried to diminish the movement
And say that it was too small
Better stay cool, because if you get upset
They put a hole in your leaders, pull the plug, then they jet
Back to they lab... unless there is land to grab
So then I add all the lies I had
One after the other one, then they make another one
To promote the opposite then ask if the brothers are done
They keep you craving like you fiend for your nicotine
As you smoking your cigarettes, you know what I mean?
Its enraging, lock us up in cages and
Don't it sound amazing 'cause every crime is made up and
Built all around all of your addictions,
Magnetized by your mixing
Vocals, vocabulary, your verses, you're stuck in
Capitalism is draining you and no one is erupting,
Ghettos overflowing, unemployment gradually growing
Everything is written in code, so it can coin-
cide, in your thoughts to guide,
In all 50 states they hide
The invincible, American Fiend, look at them
Spreading the word, 'cause its in
E-F-F-E-C-T
Smoothly operating in all your deficiencies,
But back to the problem, you gotta habit,
You can't solve it, silly rabbit
The prescription is propaganda that's so thorough when
You fiend for America like herion
Oh say as the base kicks, you need a fix
Give you a gauge and alcohol that don’t mix
Give you weed to keep you in a mood or is it a state of
unawareness? Beware, it gets greater!
A menace to the world, a lethal weapon
Will assassinate any of the people that’s repping
You see a part of them that you never seen
When you fiending for America… you American fiend...

[Verse 2:]
After 12, we worse than a Gremlin
Force Fed us pop-hop ‘til we stop trembling
The thrill of suspense is intense and you’re horrified
Playing in all of the cinemas; this "Tale From the Darkside",
By any means necessary, they do what has to be done
Public Education here they come....
Remove the music from the schools and censor all material...
Like a grand imperial
It's a must that they bust any movement you're into see,
Oppressions inherited, it's runs in the family
They write the laws that break the bull's back,
If that don't slow 'em up, then they shoot ‘em in the back .
They looking for a reason to let off, you should of kept off
You didn't get the message to... step off!
Ladies and Gentleman, You're about to see
Any anti-elitist about to be
Taken into maximum, locked up in packs see,
I'm Hype and you a hyperchrondriac
Going to hell with no antidote,
Free dumb you can smoke like its dope
You're trying to move away
But you can't, cause you're broke
Poor people all cracked up, you should have backed up
For those who act up shall be more than smacked up
Any entertainer, the industries a torture chamber
One on one with only money as a remainder!
So close your eyes and hold your breath,
And I'm a hit'cha wit this blow of death
Before you go, you'll remember who you seen
Whore for America as American fiend

The American fiend...
