lyrics

When the kids at my high school kept moving away
and my own kids would hang out at grand dad’s to play
while I’m working 3 jobs just to pay the rent,
I felt the emptiness
Of a place where the schools are shut down
Half the buildings are empty, we are a ghost town
What once was our spirit is now the ghost that haunts this crippled, dead wasteland
My little brother just shaved off his hair
Dad is so drunk that he won’t even care
My little brother shows national pride
in black red white…
I told him to stop but soon gave up, he wanted a hero, and that I am not
He chose anger, I chose peace, it’s what the family needs
The movement is growing, the impact is showing
They’ve conquered the playground, chased sub-human scum out
Burned down the kebab place
The owners were screaming, my daddy was cheering
My brother beat them up supported by some cop
The owners called for help
Yeah, my little brother came with 20 friends
I told ‘em to stop, but they wanted to cleanse
The city of foreigners, Muslims and sins
And the cops join in
I told em to stop but soon gave up, they were drunk and I was not
They needed a hero to be saved, but ‘hero’s’ not how I’ve been raised
It makes you laugh, the way I talk, I wouldn’t protest, I’d just walk
Misguided and without a clue, and while you laugh, the joke’s on you
Your middle class is under threat, defending takes blood, tears and sweat
Too bad there’s no one left to fight for your empty pride…
