You have to pay attention to the "black water rising" part. Blackwater is a famous company based in the USA that provides private security contractors (namely in the Middle East right now). Essentially, Blackwater contractors are mercenaries available to anybody with money. Many people feel that Blackwater is a threat to the safety of America and the rest of the world for that matter.
As a result of 9/11, the money invested in Blackwater and various private security companies has significantly increased. When it sings "blackwater rising and ain't gonna stop", I think it refers to peoples fear of the rise of Blackwater. Hell, there are books written on the subject of Blackwater (Blackwater...the rise of the world's most powerful private army or something).
Furthermore, Blackwater owns multiple helicopters and various other forms of combat-ready transport vehicles. "Black birds singing" could be a reference to Blackwater's use of helicopters and their firepower.
This is all me talking out of my ass though, so take it for what its worth. For all I know, I could be 100% wrong or 100% right.
