lyrics

Protest

Student movement
The no war fight
Anti globalisation
Workers rights x2

You need to hold on like helps on the way
The heat is so strong it’s melt’n your face
Breath’n on a song felt for days
Just cas’n the joint put’n points into place x2

We wont let’em
So go get’em
People will rise ignite in the protest
Beleive and then fight for what’s right want no less x2

These days it don’t matter who you are
Coup de tat starts within loops we’re bared
Curfew broken commence the chase’n
Crews run wild like a child’s imagination
Break’n barracades shak’n shouting
Rock your foundation like Haitian housing


Mounting a case in the face of the doubting
Surrounding parliament government ousting
Tensions rising no surprise or hiding
Finding the lining that inter twines society
Woven then broken smok’n now chok’n
Awoke’n by hope’n but never have been spoke’n
They’ve had it so they grab it and attack it like a savage
Only manage ‘coz their padded heads are battered like a cabbage
Crowds scattered when their splattered many staggered and are tattered
Stay’n at it ‘coz it mattered for the captive cause’n static so...



We wont let’em
So go get’em
People will rise ignite in the protest
Beleive and then fight for what’s right want no less x2





Gotta go soon my family’s call’n
We rise and we shine true (true)
A new day’s dawning a warning from few
Move or be mourning your life and the times
It lies on the line and hangs by a thread
What is said it misled now their call’n for their head
Many bled for a cause and are forced to defend
Put an end to the rort so they’re torch’n the ends
Of an oily rag flag they’ve had enough
Bluff called so it all just had to erupt
In a puff of smoke choke people have woke’n up
Fuck’n sick of liv’n with slit throats
No voice no choice no wonder throw thunder
Once younger now are grown and know to show hunger

For change of the same show though
From a firey exchange it’s about to explode

We wont let’em
So go get’em
People will rise ignite in the protest
Beleive and then fight for what’s right want no less x2


Student movement
The no war fight
Anti globalisation
Workers rights x2

You need to hold on like helps on the way
The heat is so strong it’s melt’n your face
Breath’n on a song felt for days
Just cas’n the joint put’n points into place x2

We wont let’em
So go get’em
People will rise ignite in the protest
Beleive and then fight for what’s right want no less x2
