Lyrics

I can't breathe, images on the screen
Kids in Darfur, by chance it ain't me
Capitalist war, by chance it ain't we
And to stay silent, bro, that ain't me
Twelve million displaced, or was that just a number?
You think they didn't have ambitions and dreams?
A mother grieves her son like you would grieve your mother
Twenty-four million times, they still didn't speak
They payin' the militia for the guns, for the bullets
So habibi, now we boycott UAE
Let me tell you 'bout Darfur, back in '56
When they got independence, they neglected darker people
And you know in Sudan, the people judged, it's never equal
I'm just tryna level, give you lens that you can see through
They closed down the schools, gasoline, they burned the people
Man-made famine in a world that's truly evil
Twenty years, you didn't give 'em rights or give 'em knowledge
Crossin' over on a boat, yeah, they judge you, but I feel you
Sudan was the biggest country in Africa
Well, until 2013
When they split us up over there, gasoline
But if I see a brother there and he's from South Sudan, that's gas
My brother, you're always family to me
And if I'm eatin', man, I want everybody to eat
It's truly disgustin', they hung people from trees
When did rape and sexual violence ever lead to greater things?
They can dig their graves, the whole world was watchin'
Couldn't even make BBC or ITV
You see genocide, man, it isn't mainstream
The reason why, man, it isn't on the screen
I met a lady at a protest, she lost thirty family members
Thirty people packed in the space of a week
They tell me we need hope, I struggle to believe
That anybody's comin' for them or for me
What about the diaspora watchin' through a phone screen?
Overthinkin' why the Lord has chose me
Maybe 'cause Sudan and Congo, we got darker people
So it's okay when we got hit with all this evil
Tell me the reason anybody justify this
I'm seein' terrorism, but everybody silent
Kids are gettin' raped, why is anybody blind?
Your problem's only valid when the algorithm finds it
A world where no one understands is solitary confinement
Hate in my heart from all the peace I couldn't find
And still I'm peacefully protestin', checkin' on my bredrins
Bread home for the little ones, my family's protected
I pray for peace of Africa, but peacefully neglected
And to be ignorant, that's a gene I wasn't blessed with
In every exit, man, I'ma find an entrance
The voice of revolution when everyone forgets it
Back in uni, I was askin' for extensions
Backin' out extend deals, tryna grieve my bredrins
Me, I got a peace wish, I don't have a death wish
Toddla, I got a dream where everybody gets this
Me, I got a peace wish, I don't have a death wish
I had a dream where everybody gets this
You get this?
I'm gonna throw up
