Civilised
Thru all my hatred for the west
I have to show them respect
For it could be the difference
Between making it home
And a knife to my head
Cos that's the way it goes
This land aint mine it's yours
I have to watch my tone
Forever switching code
To suit your comfort zone
Cant do that shit no more
My respect's gotta be earned
What does it mean to be civilised?
What determines the value of a life?
It's either media bias or media silence
Ain't no in between
Swear it's always been so mad to me
The way they lie to us so blatantly
Just look what they did to shireen
Go read about dier yassin
For over 70 years
They've tried to erase my history
What does it mean to be civilised?
What determines the value of a life?
(tell me)
I have to show them respect
For it could be the difference
Between making it home
And a knife to my head
Cos that's the way it goes
This land aint mine it's yours
I have to watch my tone
Forever switching code
To suit your comfort zone
Cant do that shit no more
My respect's gotta be earned
What does it mean to be civilised?
What determines the value of a life?
It's either media bias or media silence
Ain't no in between
Swear it's always been so mad to me
The way they lie to us so blatantly
Just look what they did to shireen
Go read about dier yassin
For over 70 years
They've tried to erase my history
What does it mean to be civilised?
What determines the value of a life?
(tell me)
