Ahura Mazda

[Verse 1]
I would have done anything to be called American
'Cause every person thats white thought I'm a terrorist
I wasn't proud of the culture that I inherited
When I was younger I always denied my heritage
I just figured out who taught me to hate me
American people look at me thinking I'm crazy
No matter where I go, its like I never belong there
Places run by the rich or stupid rednecks with long beards
How many miles I gotta travel so I can find peace?
Corona bottles and whiskey, I better hide these
Its like everyones dying to make sure I bleed
I hear the violence, the police sirens behind me
American people see me and want to go to war
The air is poison, I'm choking, the government ignores
Sometimes I ask myself why the fuck I am fighting for?
They want to kill me and drag my body inside a morgue
But I'm the son of Ahura, brother of Cyrus the Great
I bring freedom for my people, I will rise and I'll take
Everything you've ever stole, your empire will break
The throne is mine for the taking, the Persian lion awaits
So get the fuck out of my kingdom, motherfucker this is my world
And I'm taking in back
I'll lift you up from this dirty ground and I'll break you in half
Burning everything you love and suffocate from the ashes

[Hook]
Welcome to my world
Welcome to my world
Riot in the streets cause I wanna be free
'Cause I refuse the be the slave that you want me to be

[Verse 2]
I went to college, got my degree, Mama now what?
I'm 40,000 in debt, so Mama now what?
Did I go to college just so I can pay loans?
Get a mortgage on a house that now some fucking bank owns?
I think these days are too short
Eating me away like nicotine in Newports
Time is limited I only wish I can do more
To search for happiness, figuring out whats my true source
Rakim or Cool J?
Shady or Kanye?
Makavelli and Lupe?
Maybe create a legacy before it is too late?
Saving my hopeless people then hide away like I'm Bruce Wayne
But what the fuck can I do?
Will a song that I make get you rise up to a few?
How many people are hungry and who's got nothing to lose?
How many people are willing to die, get hung from a noose?
I want the higher power, I don't want to die a coward
Waiting for my finest hour, instrumentals I devour
Win the war and light the tower, night is ours
Rising up
Take the power back from the government and divide it up
(Stand the fuck up)
Good thoughts, good words, good deeds
Persian deity that I can be
Good thoughts, good words, good deeds
Ahura Mazda got my mind, soul, and my body

[Hook]
