fabiiian - black friday lyrics
how many more/
how many more of these black lives have to be lost before you see a f+cking war/
it’s getting to the point where people are tired of being peaceful/
the bodies stacked in the streets cause you treat us like we’re illegal/
every days a struggle/ everyday i see my people get beaten / we’re living in a jungle/ we’ve been fighting for years / from every side of the globe /
you’re struggle is my struggle/
they’re losing control/
let me give you some facts about where i come from/
a rich land resources / a kingdom/
but i still the affects of the old system/
all you have to do is go see the people in the prison/
tell me/ how 80% of land is owned by white people /
that’s 9 % of the population/
we’re not equal/
cause we accepted democracy over 50 years of struggle from people that didn’t even give apologies/
and that’s a lie/ it wasn’t 50 years/
it’s more than 300 / we were living in fear/
jan van riebeek came in 1652 /
we welcomed him with peace/
now tell me what did he do/
but i was born free/
i don’t know the struggle /
i don’t know about the tear gas /
and all the muzzles /
i don’t about the fact my family owned land /
then came removals and they were dumped in the sand /
i don’t know about the fact my mother had to study with a candle /
while my father was shot at by police /
a constant battle/
for just wanting to vote / just wanting a say/
treated like they were slaves/ they just can’t get away/
and then you have the nerve to tell me it happened 20 years /
i should get over it / i should move on/
i shouldn’t let the past affect me /
i should be able to deal with my emotions so that people in power can be accepting/
let me tell you what i should do/ i should get a pistol /
and k!ll a racist motherf+cker/ like i’m k!lling these instrumentals/
in case you feel forgetful / imma leave with one thing to be respectful/
you don’t know what we go through/ it’s old news /
you refuse your past / i carry mine like tattoos /
imagine if mandela never wanted peace/ the only thing you’d see is black faces in these streets/
