Comment by Thabiso on July 14, 2009 at 2:41pm: From Kindom Come, Album, the "MInority Report" song. You said That," Just put my money in the hands of the same people that left my people stranded." I would love to know in details to elaborate that line. I understand the song very well, since it's his Minority Report.
