They calling me a terrorist, we know who the terror is |
| [00:18.02] |
Tell them that I'm not (guilty) |
| [00:20.89] |
They calling me a terrorist, it is time to settle this |
| [00:23.75] |
Tell them that I'm not (guilty) |
| [00:26.57] |
I'm all about love and peace, why you wanna trouble me? |
| [00:29.29] |
Tell them that I'm not (guilty) |
| [00:32.08] |
My intentions are clear to see |
| [00:36.61] |
First of all, allow my client Kareem Dennis |
| [00:38.75] |
Simplify his messages and dissect the evidence |
| [00:41.94] |
That placed him on the terror list, spread the lies of television |
| [00:44.66] |
My client is standing accused of encouraging terrorism |
| [00:47.58] |
He's promoting peace, far from violent encouragement |
| [00:50.21] |
I believe it's unjust that this court has summoned him |
| [00:53.08] |
How can one man rapping, lead to terrorist actions? |
| [00:55.85] |
This misunderstanding merits a retraction |
| [00:58.83] |
Accused of calling for attacks on military facilities |
| [01:01.63] |
You can't equate violence with criticism politically |
| [01:06.13] |
Where's the freedom of speech? |
| [01:07.38] |
He's just another young musician who is seeking a dream |
| [01:10.01] |
My client is accused of inciting racial tension |
| [01:12.91] |
He's half-Arab, half-English, did I fail to mention? |
| [01:15.77] |
The media rendered his reputation ruined |
| [01:18.54] |
Think about how many youngsters he has influenced |
| [01:21.52] |
To quit a life of crime and do the opposite |
| [01:24.44] |
Most of the man's tracks are completely devoid of politics |
| [01:27.15] |
The evidence is unseen, the verdict is a done deed |
| [01:29.98] |
How can you compare a song to invading a country? |
| [01:32.74] |
My client isn't hungry for the blood of the people |
| [01:35.32] |
Since when has making a rap song ever been illegal |
| [01:38.15] |
Or murderous? The only thing that drives this person is love |
| [01:41.23] |
I rest my case to the jury and the merciful judge |
| [01:45.70] |
They calling me a terrorist, we know who the terror is |
| [01:48.41] |
Tell them that I'm not (guilty) |
| [01:51.25] |
They calling me a terrorist, it is time to settle this |
| [01:54.07] |
Tell them that I'm not (guilty) |
| [01:56.89] |
I'm all about love and peace, why you wanna trouble me? |
| [01:59.60] |
Tell them that I'm not (guilty) |
| [02:02.41] |
My intentions are clear to see |
| [02:07.01] |
Sir, can you confirm you're the artist that's known as Lowkey?I can |
| [02:10.04] |
Are you aware the state has been building this case since 03?I am |
| [02:12.66] |
You claim that you're all about love and you promote peace |
| [02:15.38] |
I'm here to prove that your hot speeches lead to cold deeds |
| [02:18.10] |
Your lyrics are a virus infecting all the youths |
| [02:20.64] |
You say whatever it takes to get a mention on the news |
| [02:23.37] |
You're an insult to the people and offend the soldiers too |
| [02:26.24] |
Objection, your Honour |
| [02:28.10] |
Objection overruled |
| [02:29.50] |
Do you denounce the monarchy and hope for a republic? |
| [02:32.08] |
Monarchy is inequality, systemic injustice |
| [02:34.84] |
While you strangle Afghanistan and tangle with Taliban |
| [02:37.62] |
Our taxes have to pay for David Cameron's cameraman |
| [02:40.68] |
How can you compare spreading anarchy to spreading democracy? |
| [02:43.71] |
Like you compare resistance to extension of colonies |
| [02:46.16] |
Did you really refer to the U.S. as an abomination? |
| [02:48.82] |
No, I posed a question in reference to its domination |
| [02:51.90] |
I scrutinise governments, you scrutinise songs |
| [02:54.40] |
Did you compare predator drones to suicide bombs? |
| [02:57.38] |
Yes and I question where such brutalised youth would rise from |
| [02:59.99] |
It's true, I choose to write songs but you can write wrongs |
| [03:01.66] |
But what if your questions equate to the spreading of hate? |
| [03:05.85] |
Is it true you labeled Israel a terrorist state? |
| [03:08.59] |
Yes, cause it's based on the threat to erase an indigenous population you could never replace |
| [03:16.12] |
They calling me a terrorist, we know who the terror is |
| [03:18.71] |
Tell them that I'm not (guilty) |
| [03:21.59] |
They calling me a terrorist, it is time to settle this |
| [03:24.36] |
Tell them that I'm not (guilty) |
| [03:27.19] |
I'm all about love and peace, why you wanna trouble me? |
| [03:29.94] |
Tell them that I'm not (guilty) |
| [03:32.95] |
My intentions are clear to see |
| [03:37.38] |
Please allow me to state the most relevant of facts |
| [03:39.82] |
I'm charged with section 1 of 06's Terrorism Act |
| [03:42.68] |
It is alleged the music I'm publishing for exhibition |
| [03:45.51] |
All amounts to the encouragement of terrorism |
| [03:48.49] |
My face was placed up on the news as a wanted person |
| [03:51.19] |
Cause it caused controversy when they saw my songs emerging |
| [03:54.04] |
If I was commercial would I have to ride all these hurdles? |
| [03:56.50] |
Raided my home, take my phone, put some spies in my circle? |
| [03:59.23] |
Not on it, no comment, I will never change my position |
| [04:02.06] |
Not in jail, but they gave me these stale bail conditions |
| [04:05.00] |
And this is the part where the plot just gets sinister |
| [04:07.89] |
They banned from the City of London and Westminster |
| [04:10.70] |
I do this for the rebels that do this without the medals |
| [04:13.60] |
For Smiley Culture, Jody McIntyre and Alfie Meadows |
| [04:16.32] |
Before you throw it at me, have a look at your backwards book |
| [04:19.69] |
Definition of terrorism, Columbus and Captain Cook |
| [04:22.27] |
I can't lie, it's getting deep, our lives are very cheap |
| [04:25.03] |
And one person dies in police custody every week |
| [04:27.90] |
They're editing my tracks cause I'm telling them the facts |
| [04:30.56] |
You're more likely to die like that than from a terrorist attack |
| [04:33.30] |
When you try to fight a war, they will say you defy the law |
| [04:36.38] |
Can't quiet me, this is R.I.P. for Brian Haw |
| [04:39.51] |
We know the truth, no matter what you tell 'em on the television |
| [04:41.99] |
IMF, World Bank, economic terrorism |
| [04:44.76] |
I refuse to produce chart nonsense |
| [04:47.82] |
Not a servant to the Zionist lobby like Mark Thompson |
| [04:50.56] |
The BBC want me making music to impress crooks |
| [04:53.18] |
Or doing shows on military bases like Tim Westwood |
| [04:55.81] |
Murdoch might have the news, but me, I have the tunes |
| [04:59.07] |
Your cameras move onto celebrities to distract the youth |
| [05:01.86] |
Remember this fact is true |
| [05:03.41] |
When you point your finger at me there is three fingers pointing back at you |
| [05:25.85] |
