Hear “A Peaceful Solution” by J-Liddy

J-Liddy put together a Hip hop version of “A Peaceful Solution” for this new production by remixing Willie Nelson vocals and adding his own. He turns “A Peaceful Solution” into his own song while keeping the presence of Willie Nelson strong.

J-Liddy mentions the Federal Reserve in his additional lyrics. I am not accustomed to hearing the Federal Reserve being mentioned in songs and it deserves note.

The connection between peace and the dismantling of the Federal Reserve System may seem to be a large reach. The Federal Reserve System, a privately owned central banking system with a monopoly on the issuing of U.S. dollars.

The Federal Reserve System was primarily created to address banking panics. Banking panics are enabled by any system that allows banks to lend out more money than they hold.

Since banks were not going to stop lending out more money than they held the Federal Reserve System was created to watch their backs when a large number of bank customers withdraw their deposits because they believe the bank is, or might become, insolvent.

This then is the system that manages the life blood of industrialized civilization as we know it. The whole corner we’ve painted ourselves into with global warming, peak oil and world wide financial collapse was engineered from the beginning with the Federal Reserve System as its key enabler.

No conspiracy theory is required as long as the reality of the Federal Reserve System exists. It provides all the mechanisms required to create, support and maintain the unequal distribution of wealth.

Most importantly, the Federal Reserve System in coordination with other centralized national banks make sure there is adequate funding for international war. Under the threat of war the global central banking system enriches the wealthy and impoverishes everyone else.

J-Liddy puts out a message hinting at the key power behind war while advocating peace. That makes his music doubly moving because we are asked to not only be aware of a problem but also to consider the causes behind the problem.

Addressing the entire situation is the lasting peaceful solution.

The verse is aimed at speaking (in support) of anyone thinking of
questioning the Bush administration and the elite’s terrible policies.

i seen the disaster happen,
you will not pull the wool over my rappin’
i will stay speakin out over these tracks kid
i am not advocating violence, that is
/the wrong path to walk, they try to push my buttons
i stay on point, topics runnin, while threats keep comin’
uh, but you can’t shy away now
/let me tell you what i believe and point out how
you can’t stop, be pushed back, they will suppress you
but your voice is so powerful, so let em’ test you
try to show a resolve that can’t be broke
war is not the only way, true’er words have never been spoke/
-in, with transparency
-out with the federal reserve, i think it’s fair to say
-in with being accountable,
-out with thoughts and ideas being insurmountable, ya dig that?
