Pancakes II
Not the type of person to tell people
How to live their life
But everyday there's people dying needlessly
That's not alright

All these drugs and poverty
That suffocate our nation
It all bubbles to the surface
Ends up in retaliation

I had people asking me for change
I wish they didn't need to
It should not be down to me
To be the one to feed you

Makes me wonder how you ended up in this spot
Did your parents kick you out?
Did you love the pills too much?
Let me tell you 'bout the issues
That been stressing me a lot
We got money that is endless
Yet we keep the lid upon it
Driving cars with "Brexit means Brexit"
Printed on the bonnet

Families crying out of Grenfell
Where the fuck Theresa now?
I still think that shit was bullshit
How these families still not housed
But every time that Donald tweets
The PM gets aroused

And how about the climate
That we do not have control of
'Cause China moving madness
They'll just go until the wheels off

So the protestors that clogging up the streets
We like to shop on
Should get the fuck up off the bandwagon
They chose to hop on

'Cause now police is being pulled from the nation
Make it easier for stabbings to occur
No doubting
Imagine if your kid was on the ground
Crying out
'Cause he tried to leave the house
And they thought he run his mouth
But he really was just heading to his friend's house
Miscommunication now his time is suddenly running out
Call upon the 999 and they say they are on their way
But protesters that's in the road
Is causing some delay

Let's talk about the drugs these kids all say
They'll give up in their 20's
Or when they have a kid or get a job
Or something edgy

When all they've known is "pop this shit
And ima feel a million"
They don't understand the way those drugs
Are slowly drilling in
To every decision that you make
It's slowly spilling in
And suddenly you still be popping pills
In the same house that your kids are living in

I know I'm just civilian, I don't have the power
To make the changes needed to save whats ours
I look up to the moon and wander
If it can grow flowers
Drown my sorrows in this gin and apple flavoured sourz
My body is 20
My mind is 30
My kidneys are hurting
The water is dirty

The food is diseased
It's giving us cancers
They play us like voodoos
They play us like dancers

They got all the resource
But we got all of the answers
They burnt all the bridges
Bully us like some bouncers

Won't show them my ID
No idea what they are doing
Claim they love this country
Behind doors they laughing fooling

To timestamp this my girlfriend black
I get scared they'll treat her wack
I pray they let her get the job she wants
And don't give her the sack

For bullshit unrelated to the things
That she be doing
Then loot her ass some more
From the court fees for the suing

This country makes me angry
Makes me sad
It makes me doubtful
A bitter pill to swallow
But this pill more than a mouthful

I choke upon reality
And how it wants me silenced
I look towards the stars
The moon my only source of guidance

I look towards the news
And how it's splattered with the violence
For people that we've lost
Let me take a moments silence
