Johannesburg - Lyrics by Love Like Blood


Lyrics
higly armed the white policeare blowing away little kneescrushed bones and finger tipsare forming words on bleeding lipsblue eyes are watching themblue eyes are killing thembut there's no hope when they praythe lord seems to be miles awaywe saw the spirit of johannesburgfilthy smoke covering the suna bullet left another guna nation screams in agonyin pure fear pure apathylord oh lord where have you gonesee what your children have donebut there's no hope when they praythe lord seems to be miles awayand thought the days of fascismand racism had gonei'd never thought that there wouldbe things like oppressionhumiliatiion and persecutionthat a dump white male minoritycould rule over a black majoritysouth africa you're onlythe top of a lethal floodsouth africa ruled by die hard fanaticsbut still there's a mass of peoplewho are protesting, fightingand demonstrating against a systemwhich degrades them to animalsbut animals fight back when they'rein life danger also human beings fight backso fight back in the name of freedomfight back in the name of human rightsfor a redemption, for a solutionhoist the flags of revolution!my lord when will the white bastion fall!
