lyrics

Down in the city you can feel the frustration
Police create a very tense situation
Try to enforce stark segregation
But some take a stand against wicked Babylon
They attack us with their gas and their water cannons
They beat us to the ground with their clubs and truncheons
They threaten our lives say they’re gonna shoot their guns
Now you say you’re anti violence but tell me which side are you on

Do you know the privilege of definatory power?
Do you know the benefit of living in peace?
Have you ever felt the strain of your class society?
Do you know the effects of anxiety?
Now you preach about violence, what a dreadful irony
All I hear is silence and hypocrisy
All that I can see is class solidarity
Backing your henchmen for all the world to see.

When they shoot Tasköprü you are just staying mute
Then they murder young Jalloh but I hear no cries from you
And they kill Achidi John but you keep calm and carry on
And when Francis Kwame died we weren’t walking side by side

Whine, you may whine about an injured cop
But you still live off the weapons that you export
