lyrics

Hook:
Mentiras, no don't you believe
Mentiras, but they want you to believe
Mentiras, No no no...
Mentiras

Verse 1:
Got to fight for your rights, don't take for granted.
Gotta hold on tight.
Cuz if you look away and say it's alright,
They gonna steal all they can take.

Hook:
Mentiras, no don't you believe
Mentiras, but they want you to believe
Mentiras, No no no...
Mentiras

Verse 2:
So, I walk down the road I hear the crackle of radio.
A voice said that there was sin committed tonight.
Painted pictures in black and white.
Said that there's gonna be blood spilt tonight.

Bridge:
Warriors, Warriors - gotta get up on your feet
Warriors, Warriors -gotta take to the streets
Warriors, Warriors -chase them crazy bald heads to their knees
Warriors, Warriors...

Mexican Stepgrandfather Rap:
I can’t trust what I see on TV
What I read in magazines
And scan on my computer screen
Lies broadcast over frequencies
Can’t trust those government
agencies paying me
Another day outlined on a page
In a culture war I fight
for a better day
Move this way
Time is running out
Analyze the routes
Locate the whereabouts
of corporate intestest
Disguised over lies
Mentiras
That's how they treat us
And they need trust
I find lies beneath
compete with decitet
Prepared for warfare
til the day we meet

Hook:
Mentiras, no don't you believe
Mentiras, but they want you to believe
Mentiras, No no no...
Mentiras...
