War Paint
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My people - it's like a motion picture
Ya push it and push it
You're pushed into believing
My people - were pushed into extinction
Push over move over
Your place in time is over
Liar, liar
Learning from the book of lies
Keeps you feeling good and blind (so blind)
Liar, liar
And if you want the only truth
It's buried under foot
Put on your war paint
Cause here they come to claim your home
And claim your mother earth
Put on your war paint
Cause here they come to change your God
And crush your own beliefs
Columbus - our favorite nations hero
He tortured and murdered
The people that once saved him
Columbus - went home his countries failure
In shackles a criminal
And yet we celebrate him
Thanksgiving - a touching celebration
Share everything with you
Before we have to kill you
Liar, liar
Cause history is his story
It's buried underfoot
Put on your war paint
Cause here they come to claim your home
And claim your mother earth
Put on your war paint
Cause here they come to change your God
And crush your own beliefs
Put on your war paint
Cause here they come to spread their lies
And leave you with disease
