Lyrics

For that misery of the spirit, which is betrayed in the set of a face, there are no statistics It is not those who can inflict the most, but those that can suffer the most who will conquer Do you think I was born on this wretched earth for you to govern and kill? In your stinking factories and offices with your stupid system and skills Do you think I've got nothing better to do than to grovel in the shit and the crap Asking for the bread and the home that's mine and waiting for a pat on the back? You think I've got nothing better to do than to live in the lies that you give? Learn the sick morals, the lessons, the games, and praise god for the fact that i live? You took me and made me a MAN by making me strong, the power of this land You took a woman and told her she's less A slave to the strong no more than a guest You taught me to love, find a mate and to take A woman to serve but your love is just rape You leave me my children to hold and distort To bind with your rules of normality till caught I give them the food that you sell in the shops I'm told it has goodness when it's only the slops You take my health with your shitty benevolence You take my dignity with your dole queue dependence You taught me to steal when I wanted to share To take for myself and not even care Stunt my vision with oppressive authority The dreams and the hopes nearly fade to strangle me You gave me confusion until I had learnt To obey all the orders and never get burnt I shout in the streets and you take my voice This sham of democracy leaves no choice You've taken my eyes till there's nothing to see Except abuse and destruction, no chance to be free Taken my thinking, my means of survival Thrust in my hands your gun and your bible Taught me to kill for the lord up above You've given me hate when I KNOW THERE IS LOVE Taught me to kill for the lord up above You've given me hate when I KNOW THERE IS LOVE [?]
