Lyrics

[Intro] There is never reconciliation There is never truth A nation lost in transition to the present Ignorant of its own savagery Drunk on the warped creation myth Collective memory fed on lies Black bodies spread upon the altar of capital A bitter god demanding human sacrifice [Verse 1] Minimal, run for it Subliminal, they saw it Dem criminals, ignored it 'Til smokes filled the air and the people fell down Liminal, wait for it Can I see the man? He made it But now they rushing to his body just to keep him alive [Chorus] I hear you You're calling me Calling me all the time Near me, I'm hearing you Hearing you all the time [Verse 2] Murder, murder one Murder, murder two Murder, murder three Murder seventy, how? Many more you would think are there still to find The mothers, the fathers, are they still to find? The sisters, the brothers, are they still to find? You knew all along, admit it You knew all along, but hid it Everything was wrong, you get it Taught indifferences, that did it Yeah, tell dem now [Chorus] I hear you You're calling me Calling me all the time Near me, I'm hearing you Hearing you all the time [Bridge] Born in the manor Born in the gutter For dem, it don't matter Blackers, whiter, browner You burn in a tower Burn in a tower Burn in a tower Born in the manor Born in the gutter For dem, it don't matter Blackers, whiter, browner You burn in a tower Born in the manor Born in the gutter For dem, it don't matter For dem, it don't matter For dem, it don't matter For dem, it don't matter Blacker, whiter, browner You burn in a tower Burn in a tower Burn in a tower Born in the manor Born in the gutter For dem, it don't matter Blacker, whiter, browner You burn in a tower Burn in a tower Burn in a tower Born in the manor Born in the gutter For dem, it don't matter Blacker, whiter, browner You burn in a tower Born in the manor Born in the gutter For dem, it don't matter For dem, it don't matter For dem, it don't matter For dem, it don't matter Blacker, whiter, browner You burn in a tower Burn in a tower Burn in a tower [Outro] Subliminal Dem criminals Subliminal Dem criminals
