Why don't you want me here

Why must we live in fear

Why must my blood stain ground

You talk of land as if you spat the piles of earth

From your mouth out

Why don't you want me here

Why must I drown in tears

Why must your gun go bang

Like I snatched that old money out your hand

It's because I scare you out your wits

I must scare you out your wits

I must scare you...

Out your wits

I must scare you out your wits

I must scare you out your wits

I can see the hairs on your back start to prick

I must scare you out your wits

Yeah

I've swallowed a foreign object

I've swallowed a foreign object

I've swallowed a foreign object

A foreign object

I've swallowed a foreign object

I think I swallowed a foreign object

I felt it slipping down my throat and it got lodged in my neck

I've swallowed a soul

I think I swallowed your soul

Oh here it goes!

I exhaled and out flew a swallow from the hole in my head

A foreign object

This object is not a part of me

But seems to be the only thing that you can see

And I don't know what in Gods green earth

You see in me

You only see this foreign object

When patriotism is next to satanism

You made this place your god

Now guard it until you're dearly departed

Not here to stand impartial

My forefathers martyred

Yet injustice harbours

Pressed with oppression and hardship

Shipped from harbours

To build western civilisation Taj Mahals and plazas

While you lounge in parlours

I could have been made in China

Slaved in Libya

Killed in Gaza

We've fallen for perks and charters

All of my people were stole and bartered

Working mines

Crafting gold from coal and carbon

Worked to bone for nada

Watch your nonchalantness

History repeats

The present is never safe from modern day Stalin's and kamikaze karma

Kill for your country and it's honour

Soldiers like Ted Bundy

Raping and killing for currency and commas

But still heroes in the column

They'd colonise the stars if they could

Kneel to pray against injustice as you should

And face the slander of the ever-deep

Wide web

Tell me what is moral good

When subdued by the great grand history omnibus

In the face of apathy

This seems like moral-thuggery

Confused ideas

Time to chew our fear

And then lets swallow up

A little wage slavery

Go ahead and let me be

States built of the backs of refugees we vilify

Impeach

Food plants to food stamps

To slave plantations

To concentrations camps

Carrying this trauma in my DNA

I had a name but you gave me a colour

Pioneers capitalising off the back of Pangaea

And I'm tick boxing 'other'

Why don't you want me here

Why must we live in fear

Why must my blood stain ground

You talk of land as if you spat the piles of earth

From your mouth out

Why don't you want me here

Why must I drown in tears

Why must your gun go bang

Like I snatched that old money

Out your hand

It's because I scare you out your wits

I must scare you out your wits

I must scare you...

Out your wits

I must scare you out your wits

I must scare you out your wits

I can see the hairs on your back

Start to prick

I must scare you out your wits

Yeah

I've swallowed a foreign object

I've swallowed a foreign object

I've swallowed a foreign object

A foreign object

I've swallowed a foreign object
