Song

The song opens with a vocal sample of American religious leader and political activist Louis Farrakhan at a Non-Aligned Movement meeting. The lines in question are: We who are oppressed love those who fight against oppression and the oppressors. Brothers and sisters, it is with great honor and privilege that I present to you the leader of the El Fatah revolution... From Libya, our brother Muhammar El Kahdafi.
