Welcome to the United Snakes Land of the thief home of the slave Grand imperial guard where the dollar is sacred and proud ... The Cold Continent latch key child Ran away one day and started acting foul King of where the wild things are daddy's proud cos the Roman Empire done passed it down Imported and tortured a work force and never healed the wounds or shook the curse off Now the grown up Goliath nation Holdin' open auditions for the part of David ... Only approved questions get answered Now stand your ass up for that national anthem - Brother Ali, Uncle Sam Goddamn ... I usually never listen to rap, but if you think the US is screwed up, you have to listen to this: it's gold! ▶ this video
I’ve always preferred Brother Ali’s wording. “ Welcome to the United Snakes Land of the Thief , Home of the Slave Grand imperial guard where the dollar is sacred and proud.” ▶ this video
I find this extremely relevant to software engineers practicing in the fairy city of San Francisco, CA => ▶ this video We make obscene amounts of cash in comparison the rest of the country and for what - to contribute more to murdering the everliving fuck out of everyone.
