Afghan War Lyrics - Singles - Yosef

(Chorus X2) 

Dying without a cause, lives lost in the chaos 

people deceased, diseased, all they seek is peace 

too many people dying, 

they'll never stop the fighting 

unless we come together and start uniting 

Verse 1 

war is old men deciding young people's faiths 

lives being destroyed by missiles and grenades 

war is nothing more than a series of charades 

this is one war that won't be followed by parades 

war is when lives come to an end, when young men won't see their families again 

lets go back to the 80's (the) soviets intervened, a republic overthrown by a communist regime 

the CIA funded the mujahedeen 

training them to take religion to an extreme 

innocent civilians scream 

millions fleein' the scene 

half the population under 14 

and peace became a shattered fuckin' dream 

a nation bleedin' for freedom, wanna beat em defeat em', 

unless their heart stops beatin' or they stop breathin', 

they won't stop till they see them retreatin' 

(Chorus X2) 

Dying without a cause, lives lost in the chaos 

people deceased, diseased, all they seek is peace 

too many people dying, 

they'll never stop the fighting 

unless we come together and start uniting 

Verse 2 

Afghanistan bankrupt the Soviet Union, after a decade of war they left it in ruin 

with a common enemy the U.S wanted to set em free, 

like a pawn they let em be 

eventually Afghans fundamentally reconstructed independently 

warlords divided conceptually 

guerilla warfare practiced exceptionally 

had no education but billions in weaponry 

a disastrous recipe, crazy as it gets to be 

more killed in the violence 

blood spilled voices were silenced, 

a cancerous defiance, civil war, Taliban and Northern Alliance 

money driven politicians, 

a mission consistin' ethnic and gender division 

contradiction of a religion, system had women imprisoned 

Religious fanatics, Opium Addicts, Kidnaps, Bastards, so sad its a tragic, the people have had it 

(Chorus X2) 

Verse 3 

Not one Afghan among the 9/11 hijackers, Afghanistan was a compound for those that attacked us, 

but the fact is, their taking our taxes, putting it into contractors, 

public official, American puppets, trillion dollar budgets 

We must just, trust this, cuz this is justice, fuck this 

enough of this, tainted infrastructures, crooks, Corrupt ass mothafuckaz 

Unrecorded casualties taking lives by surprise 

livin' in harsh realities vengeance dries their eyes 

insurgents fight and rise, the government denies them rights 

resources privatized, the media hides their lies 

rigged elections, no representation, still in need of an education 

no healthcare or medication 

a nation facin' famine starvation embracin' invasion 

AND LOSING ANOTHER GENERATION 

(Chorus X2)
