War Don't End (Power Struggle)

Transcribed by NVVICIOUS
War Don't End
The war didn't end when Saigon fell
The CIA's got a story to tell
Bout the secret army from the mountains of Laos
And the people were promised that we'll get them out

They got so poor didn't foresee
The communist party claiming victory
Hired guns now run for the hills
They run and since day one survivor skills

Kicked out of china for holding on to culture
While the tourists brought in borders and hang em by their sofas*
Haven't you looked at the tapestry
AK47s in the hands of the peasants

An old Hmong man wears American flag
Gets no respect as Americans laughed
At his language and his anguish his ability to grow through
From Fresno to Frogtown Eau Claire and back down

The war didn't end when Saigon fell
The CIA's got a story to tell
Bout the secret army from the mountains of Laos
And the people were promised that we'll get them out

After the war the immigrants came
Blood on they hands and nothing in they veins
Some had dreams, others made cash
Most stayed poor, some formed gangs

You speak so well then you're good at math
The children go through another culture clash
But that ain't the problem this is the issue
Your people back home are kissing the pistol

Dying by your missile, toxic and vicious
Females get raped, broken like dishes
Soldier: our lowest of human kind
They'll kill at will behind closed eyes

The Hmong in the jungles
The Hmong in the mountains run like lions behind them
Like lions huntin
But while running they dying and mothers are crying "Genocide!"

Do something, do

The war didn't end when Saigon fell
The CIA's got a story to tell
Bout the secret army from the mountains of Laos
And the people were promised that we'll get them out

The war didn't end when Saigon fell
The CIA's got a story to tell
Bout the secret army from the mountains of Laos
And the people were promised that we'll get them out

I said the war didn't end when Saigon fell
The CIA's got a story to tell
Bout the secret army from the mountains of Laos
And the people were promised that we'll get them out

I said the war didn't end when Saigon fell
The CIA's got a story to tell
Bout the secret army from the mountains of Laos
And the people were promised that we'll get them out
