Lyrics
[Verse 1]
MC Pep
Calm with the fire
Hey!
Boom, boom, boom
[Verse 2]
Hypocrisy, animosity
Anybody willing to pick out other flaws with me?
A system scrambled like eggs
Newspapers hunting for pegs
People who stick their fucking theocratic cocks in kings
Those in power
Climb up the chain to flower
Looks like it's time for yet another fucking shit shower
The more they try to pave a life around God's institution
They funnel you down the chain hand you the mighty constitution
There are ways, there are days
People like us
Who make sure that we're poor and that we skip the bus
They say 'Proud forever, a united Nation'
But can't handle the press or have an open conversation
[Verse 3]
Too many lives taken for granted
Too many times, evading the mandates
These people, they're dangerous
And even though we're free, we're stranded
[Verse 4]
No, no they never learn
For all that cash they yearn
Wish I could watch them burn
Huh
No, no they never learn
For all that cash they yearn
Wish I could watch them burn
Huh
[Verse 5]
Too many times evading the mandates
And even though we're free, we're stranded
[Verse 6]
Hey! Who, are you?
We've been looking at our people fight
Kids afraid to go to sleep at night (Boom, boom, boom)
For what? Dividing the community
We don't care for caste or colour, or immunity
We're gonna show them the face of humanity
(Taken for granted)
No, no they never learn
(Evading the mandates)
For all that cash, they yearn
(And even though we're free)
Wish I could watch them burn
Huh
We're stranded, we're stranded, we're stranded, taken for granted!
Huh
