Allright, I know, I'm jumping into the POP genres, but here's a couple more:
"Zombie" by the Cranberries and "Gunpowder" by Wyclef Jean

"Zombie" was influenced by the fighting in Northern Ireland and "Gunpowder" was influenced by fighting in Haiti. Everytime I listen to "Gunpowder" it sends chills up and down my spine...lyrics for these two songs can be found at:
