Murder Runs the Globe - Akala

Every shot that thunders

Through the nighttime don’t you wonder

What potential was extinguished

To keep the flames burning under?

Through the underworld and over world

Principles are so the same

Though we pretend they’re not as if they do not control cocaine

But you’ll find it’s connected

Every kid in the hood that’s living with a death wish

Is the same as the King who kills for the bling

But he is just much more reckless

It’s the King that I’m talking about

Though he is born with a silver spoon in his mouth

He still gonna clap for the slightest of chat

At any world leader that can’t back it

If he is sitting on the boxes

They are just oil or mineral deposits

Food he is moving fucking with our profit

So he better stop it

They say money makes the world go round, but it don’t

That is just not true

If you ain’t got guns to protect that money

I’lI regret that, Sonny, it is more fool you

Only murder further agendas that money couldn’t force

Eliminate the foes who propose

To suppose a different course, of course

A little torture is usually a big supporter

Though there’s nothing quite like killing

Good riddance to non supporters

We demonize the man on the corner

Paint him as a thug

We worship murder so much

It’s just that he ain’t killed enough

You wanna commit murder

But not end up in cuffs?

You gotta make it to the Premier League

A thousand murders plus

Who said money makes the world go 'round?

They just didn’t know

Murder runs the globe

M-m-murder runs the globe

Every knife that puncture lungs of sons

Don’t make you wonder Mums?

If he was born to billionaires backed by a hundred guns

Would he be living still, drinking, sleeping, eating meals?

Instead of dead where it don’t count

We expect you to be killed

Because living as a pauper is a fate that is tainted

Acquainted with torture

We ain’t debating the rape of the daughter

If she was raised in particular borders

Place that fate made particular slaughters

No fate just particular orders

It’s the way of the world no accident

In fact it’s immaculate

You got a big gun start clapping it

Cause the language of power devour quick

Any silly biddy little pacifist or activist or challenges

Brown or black skin savages

Who inhabiting land with minerals in it

Who think for a minute that the rhetoric we spoke

Hope?

Was not meant to be a joke

Don’t dream compassion will happen it won’t

Just go straight for the throat

Because any nation or races

That prove themselves incapable

Of matching modern murder machines

Make themselves enslavable

It is murder not money we desire insatiable

The thrilling of the killing it’s million dollars sensational, YES!

What you can’t do with a bribe

Can be achieved in a breeze with a gun and a knife

Because only murder further agendas that money couldn’t grind

Nothing like a couple dead kids to change a parents' mind

Who said money makes the world go 'round?

They just didn’t know

Murder runs the globe

M-m-murder runs the globe

Let’s get a little clarity

You ain’t got the capacity to internationally

Have a say in the ways things happening

You expect to collect more battering

Your arsenal it ain’t got no nukes

Armies equipped with too few troops

We’re laughing at you when you call truce

It’s part of the ritual to shoot-shoot-shoot

You got no background in colonization

Or public resource privatization

You can’t bang with the big boys, face it

But you still wanna play like Satan

You got no death squads to call your own

Or a pilot to fly your drones

Much less bulldozers for their homes

Talk gangster and you want to name Al Capone?

He was an amateur, silly little boys don’t understand

Even he went jail for tax evasion

For missing a payment in the payment plan

To the man, one with invisible hand

And a hidden fist to enforce my plan

I am just because I can more wicked than the Summer of Sam

Kick your shit and I kick mine fam

You bust your gun and I bomb your land

Only murder further agendas that money can’t control

Nothing like a massacred village to get the problem solved!

Who said money makes the world go 'round?

They just didn’t know

Murder runs the globe

M-m-murder runs the globe
