|
| [00:21.187] |
Certain things make me stop for a minute |
| [00:23.735] |
And thank my lucky stars that I got inderpendance |
| [00:26.551] |
Where I walk, what I talk what I drop in each sentence |
| [00:29.075] |
Never been did like david hicks and got locked without sentence |
| [00:31.650] |
And thank god in remembrance, all them lives that were ended |
| [00:34.177] |
We got freedom, so many died to defend this |
| [00:36.858] |
Pops is no killer but had to put a knife to appendix |
| [00:39.368] |
And our forefathers tails, bare a striking resemblance |
| [00:42.198] |
So when I try to refresh this, put it right in perspective |
| [00:44.733] |
Hearing their stories, have enlightened my senses |
| [00:47.393] |
And enabled me to cherish every waking moment |
| [00:49.876] |
We in that lucky country where your brains your main opponent |
| [00:52.557] |
I made that focus outward cause to cope in our hood |
| [00:55.237] |
Is easier than impoverished lands that go without food |
| [00:57.785] |
On the reg(regular) we celebrating |
| [00:59.433] |
It's a credit to this nation, just complaining for house prices |
| [01:02.140] |
Petrol, inflation. |
| [01:03.568] |
|
| [01:08.136] |
This nation |
| [01:13.372] |
We raised in |
| [01:16.117] |
How to speak |
| [01:18.642] |
Speak your mind |
| [01:20.055] |
Celebrate |
| [01:21.290] |
We ain't raised in |
| [01:22.772] |
A place we're survival is the prize |
| [01:24.291] |
|
| [01:24.849] |
The grass is always greener, yeah that sounds about right |
| [01:27.304] |
Unless the fence that you describe is topped with razerwire |
| [01:30.180] |
You fight for the sake of it, or ninety nine percent |
| [01:32.503] |
Just trying to make a shake of it |
| [01:33.976] |
And yo you must be mistaking if you |
| [01:35.444] |
Can't see your stake in it is greater than the vast majority |
| [01:38.227] |
And you can stand there growling at authority |
| [01:40.559] |
Cause we still got a democracy, and what that means |
| [01:42.916] |
Is you can say what you feel |
| [01:44.411] |
And they can't put you under lock and key |
| [01:46.114] |
So many disappeared, so many lived in fear |
| [01:48.370] |
But you know that here man, your brains the opponent |
| [01:50.881] |
So many blown opertunities in the land of plenty |
| [01:53.359] |
So many cats that let there souls run on empty it gets tempting |
| [01:56.710] |
To let it all slide, make fate the fall guy |
| [01:58.805] |
And join the could have been's, should have been's or would have beens |
| [02:01.513] |
In the backstreets of broken dreams and if it feels hopeless |
| [02:04.455] |
Man, drop that wish list and refocus |
| [02:06.388] |
|
| [02:11.372] |
This nation |
| [02:16.254] |
We raised in |
| [02:19.231] |
How to speak |
| [02:21.824] |
Speak your mind |
| [02:23.005] |
Celebrate |
| [02:24.589] |
We ain't raised in |
| [02:26.040] |
A place we're survival is the prize |
| [02:27.307] |
|
| [02:27.983] |
Got pride in my birthplace but shame also resides |
| [02:30.466] |
Many roads here paved with betrayal and genocide. |
| [02:32.929] |
Dad made his way here, he was craving a better life |
| [02:35.421] |
Didn't want another air raid waking him in the night |
| [02:38.116] |
But things changed right, Its all a little stricter |
| [02:40.628] |
Policies mixed with the riddles of a mini hitler |
| [02:43.156] |
Our diggers stay allied it really is the bigger picture |
| [02:45.816] |
Over lies they die its really so the rich are richer |
| [02:48.611] |
That shit'll twist ya, but still im a patriot |
| [02:50.997] |
I pay for taxes, these multinationals don't pay for shit |
| [02:53.938] |
The earths tombstone, they engraving it |
| [02:56.478] |
We used to swim in these rivers now we afraid to fish |
| [02:59.102] |
Not a doomsayer but still we got to brace for this |
| [03:01.911] |
Make a switch or modern life, could be an ancient myth |
| [03:04.612] |
Take a trip and witness that beauty outside |
| [03:07.167] |
This place is tatted on my heart, enough proof of my pride |
| [03:09.624] |
|
| [03:14.580] |
This nation |
| [03:19.582] |
We raised in |
| [03:22.738] |
How to speak |
| [03:25.119] |
Speak your mind |
