Lupe Fiasco - Words I never said

I was in high school on 9/11... and since then I have seen my country voluntarily shred its constitution and pursue a war on terror which is full of holes. Policy has been marked more with a thirst for revenge rather than one for justice... and many have sat back and let this happen. I have had the honor of working with Americans who believe in peace and justice and have worked to make that a reality. This song illuminates the frustration we feel with opportunistic leaders who take advantage of tragedy to push a violent and unjust agenda.
