"Mine" lyrics - DISTURBED
...At least 71 companies that we were able to identify, are starting to get contracts to go in in Afghanistan and Iraq...
...Halliburton rose to profit on the backs of American workers...
...An audit alleges KBR charged 88 million dollars for meals they never served...
...Loss of civil liberties, corporations running the show, big government in bed with big business...
(Hey
Hey
Hey)
...Was made rich by contracts flowing in from the Iraq invasion and occupation...
(Hey

...All of the top 10 companies had former US officials who had worked in the Pentagon or other parts of the US government...
...Certainly appears to be an ongoing effort to hide the facts...
...That people cash in all the time...
Been watching for a long time
Seeing the world drawing closer
To the edge of calamity
How many of our wars have started

Filling the world with enemies
A constant battle
In the face of violence

They say:
"You were warned to remain on your side
You'll be starting a war now
If you cross that line
Turn around or face my reprisal
For I have determined
That this is mine"
Oh...
...For millennia, Jerusalem's Temple Mount has been at the forefront in the battle of the great monotheistic religions...
...You're hearing some heated emotions on both sides of the argument here, but I mean
How do you make peace, if you don't want to talk to your enemy?...
...There is no question that war is a profit-making business, uh...
...Staking a claim to the land, claim to the land...
...Once again, today, passions are threatening to spill over into bloodshed...
"You were warned to remain on your side
You'll be starting a war now if you cross that line
Turn around or face my reprisal
For I have determined that this is mine"
"We will not be broken this time
We will force the whole world to testify
Stand your ground or face our reprisal
For we have determined that this is-"
