lyrics

You cannot satisfy them
They creep across the land
They want to be the only way
Green fields are built upon
Black towers rise above you
Tinted windows darken every day

So now we lock our doors
And though we carry phones
Isolated sheep don't understand
Clubs replaced by media
Society's been put on hold
Suckling at the state to hold our hand

It's not your place to have a care
Decide what makes the measure of a man
To see the world as black as you do
I hope that given time you'd understand

I hope you're listening
Don't ever let them in
At the borders just turn them away
And as they stand before you
They've given everything
Just to give you the chance to say
You're not welcome here
Your kind are just rapists and thieves
We need the balls to say
It's not OK to get in here
Think you're the same as me?

It's not your place to have a care
Decide what makes the measure of a man
To see the world as black as you do
I hope that given time you'd understand
That by the time they got here
They carry the weight of the world
Can't you see you're parcelling dirt
To sell to the dregs of the earth
You sicken me
Shouldn't be so quick to judge, then you said to me;
"I'd let them fall from the globe or drown at sea
I don't care where they go if they go from here
I struggle to see why I'd care if they die
It's not like their problems are mine if you let me decide!"

There's a place
Far from here
That we won't see
In the back of a truck
Where they can't breathe
And you lay the blame
