The Enemy Around Us
All those years we were singled out, left high and dry
They segregate the people yet they call themselves all civilised
Horrors of which that they do, you read it all in a book
You can see the WWII and all the crimes they undertook in it
What is it that prevents from pure equality?
The enemy around us all, the enemies of peace
A man was pinned to the shaming and grin
Freebie couple of game bags due to the colour of their skins
Another free kill just because of a mental state
And the people all over protest, falls on deaf ears
Free reign to the state
What is it that prevents from pure equality?
The enemy around us all, the enemies of peace
They try to justify but none can deny
The enemy around us all are still there to deprive
I've seen the slavery
Chain of being
I've seen the gluttony
Green with envy
I've seen the dead of night
Holy warzone
I've seen the war and pride
Honour killing
Who do we stand for?
George Floyd
Who do we stand for?
Brionna Taylor
Who do we stand for?
Janisha Fonville
Who do we stand for?
Alton Sterling
Who do we stand for?
Freddy Gray
Who do we stand for?
Eric Garner
Who do we stand for?
Stephon Clark
Who do we stand for?
Philando Castille
All those years we were singled out, left high and dry
They segregate the people yet they call themselves all civilised
Horrors of which that they do, you read it all in a book
You can see the WWII and all the crimes they undertook in it
What is it that prevents from pure equality?
The enemy around us all, the enemies of peace
They try to justify but none can deny
The enemy around us all are still there to deprive
They segregate the people yet they call themselves all civilised
Horrors of which that they do, you read it all in a book
You can see the WWII and all the crimes they undertook in it
What is it that prevents from pure equality?
The enemy around us all, the enemies of peace
A man was pinned to the shaming and grin
