(Verse 1)
In Baltimore’s streets, they fight to survive,
But in Gaza and Lebanon, they struggle to stay alive.
The U.S. funds Israel, the bombs keep falling,
While Mossad’s in the dark, with the innocent crawling.
Billions sent, while schools go broke,
They militarize the streets and silence the folk.
From Baltimore blocks to the West Bank’s cries,
It’s the same game, just different skies.
(Chorus)
War on drugs, war on terror-it's all the same,
The U.S. backs Israel, who takes the blame?
Mossad in the shadows, IDF’s in the sky,
America pays while the innocent die.
From Baltimore streets to the occupied lands,
It’s all about power, with blood on their hands.
(Verse 2)
In Syria, Lebanon, the missiles reign down,
Funded by dollars from Capitol Town.
No McNulty here, no war on crack,
Just drones and tanks in a deadly attack.
The same surveillance, the same tight leash,
From the drug war at home to IDF’s breach.
The U.S. bankrolls, Mossad’s plan in play,
Just like the cops who raid homes every day.
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
They say it’s security, but who’s really safe?
When billions are spent on terror in state.
From Palestinian lives to the Black and the poor,
The U.S. feeds violence, the cycle’s at the core.
(Outro)
If The Wire was shot here, it would show the truth,
America’s hand in the blood of the youth.
Both wars are the same, and both lead to strife,
It’s the U.S. that profits, while we lose our life.
