roman five - a moment of silence lyrics

i’ve been writing lyrics
since i was thirteen years old in detention three thirty until four
cause i didn’t wanna do any homework english teacher kept telling me i gotta do more
the irony was i was learning poetry, similes, idioms and metaphors
personification, onomatopoeia, oxymorons, alliteration and more
lyrics that i wrote were about how i hated school but she just couldn’t see past that
even when i pointed it out well, she got it all twisted just like pasta
started screaming and shouting i don’t believe this now go see the head master
you’ve got so much potential but waste all of your time sat at the back of the cl-ss
chatting that street vernacular slang i told you that’s banned in the cl-ssroom
my tmesis was too ob-f-cking-scene i was told to be seen not heard
respect my elders do as i’m told don’t speak unless i’m spoken to
when i looked around the cl-ssroom all i saw was broken youths no clue what to do but
sick of all of this censorship feeling cornered and or restricted
we’re all animals when out backs to the wall but my mind id more powerful than my fist is
and as i gotten older i’ve grown to be wise expanded my mind and opened my eyes
to the world that i’m in and the world outside realising i’ve been brainwashed from a child
in school i was taught to obey any rules from authoritative figures no questions asked conform
wear school uniform individuality and eccentricity is abnormal
chase power money and fame be compet-tive cause selflessness is insane
fear change and those who appear to oppose your views and values k!lling in the name
of a figure, idea or deity, ideology, lord or authority
ignore the fact you have more in common with terrorist groups than monarchies
they don’t give two f-cks about soldiers, the same company that gives you and m-16
keeps selling them rockets and revolvers and if you come back alive that’s fine
now try and survive being homeless, with ptsd and low priority
for a council house you’re hopeless, sleep on the floor outside of the palace that you thought
you had fought to protect in angst looked down upon as b-ms and tramps
what more do you want for them to say thanks? now take some d-mn food from a food bank and shut up bro
take this sh-t by the bucket load and if you’re poor it’s your own fault
you were given a choice to vote a box to tick for which
rich, white, polite, privately educated pr-ck
you want to stick a pr-ckly d-ck inside that hole from which you sh-t
well i wanna see someone like me who grew up on a council estate and speaks
with some sort of accent looks unclean has work six twelve hour shifts in a week
got raised by a single parent seeing her struggle, cry, sweat, bleed
go work in the day and go college in the evening not eating herself ‘cause her kids need feeding more
debt collectors banging the door while you hide upstairs on the bedroom floor with the lights off
vote for that person i might just, but i’ve lost all faith in the system
honestly years of comic relief but poverty stays the same
still seeing children crying in pain with filth in the water and flies on the face
dying at six and seven and eight years of age what a disgrace
we should be ashamed instead of saying i can’t watch this advert while i’m eating
change the channel and shovelling sugar and sh-t into your face
then getting so fat that your bones can’t take your weight till you’re getting your stomach stapled
whilst pining after a b-tch with plastic t-ts, fake hair, fake lips, fake -sses
botox stuck in her face with drawn on eyebrows, glued on nails and lashes
throwing up food she barely chewed at a photo shoot then cameras flashing
photoshop that sh-t to make her t-ts, hips and lips look m-ssive
once she can’t get any faker tell her teenage fans it’s nature
or simply diet and exercise she doesn’t eat potato
and you could be like her, topless in a short skirt
looking like a dirty wh-r-, on the third page of the paper
mental issues, men degrade her, mentally abuse and rape her
she’s confused thinks they rate her thinking grown men are trying to date her
he’s got a car and a brand new flat, he sells charlie he sells crack
he sells weed and pills and smack, she knows he’s a gangster he showed her the gat
on snapchat posing holding a ting but she’s well groomed and been convinced
he would never harm her he’s so sweet buys her pandora charms and rings
bottles of wine ciroc and champaz starting the evening feeling pampered
half-unconscious half-hour later hardly feeling the hand down her trousers
it’s hard to hear but still you should listen, there’s paedos on road i’ve seen ‘em
i bet there’s some now on television but what do i know i’m just a musician
he’s just and mc getting all g-ssed, just another mc talking trash
just another bloke from birmingham city seeking some fame and fortune from rap
hold up, let’s just talk about that for a bit, ‘cause music’s been a bit cr-p for a bit
so who’s been writing that lot of sh-t, on youtube liking that lot of sh-t?
sbtv, fire in the booth, jdz yeah i watch that too
i like what they’re doing how they bring man through but mc’s i’m rating only a few
and i ent gonna do no name and shame that’s just my opinion like it or not
i was the same got caught in a hype was talking sh-te but i’m trying to stop
talking like drugs and guns are cool and walking around with a shank is worth it
spending money on garms and bling material things but i’m not perfect
trying to read more books these days, watch less movies, play less games
something mahatma ghandi says or said is that we should be the change
that we want to see in the world, i’m fortunate just to be on the world
and just because i’m and atheist it doesn’t mean there’s nothing beyond the world
keep pushing the boundaries testing the thesis wi-fi used to be sci-fi back when
hi-fi was on vinyl see this seems stupid but really it’s clearly a simple
fact of life you can’t hide from is earth the only planet that’s got life on
i don’t know that but i do know this though i’ll never turn the mic off when the mic’s on
i just keep ranting and raving and putting words down on a page like paving
and pacing around in my bedroom raging from the cold calls that i’m getting from slaves in prisons
in hmp’s, selling me a house insurance scheme what i’m paid in a day they’re paid in a week
which might not seem so bad until you see the incentive
to lock youths up for a crime and keep them inside for the longest time
innocent until proven guilty gets cut short by joint enterprise law
sounds like it’s really a war on the poor, educate less, lock ’em up more
and did you know that you could be next if you protest without written warning
but if you work for the government, banks, big corporations or police it’s fine
do what you like break a few laws and when you get caught simply resign
don’t go to court or show remorse, well maybe just pay the fine
appear on tv say “it was me”, and then apologise
set up a new company from another country to avoid paying any more tax
employ people pay them the minimum wage on a zero hour contract
outsource labour to some poor country on the eastern side of the map
hit ‘em with drones and when they leave home to come over here keep sending ‘em back
take any natural resources from the land they’re living on leave them hopeless
cut down rainforests pollute the air we breathe and dump chemicals in the ocean
contaminate soil while fracking for oil make up laws to slow down the progress
of renewable energy sources that don’t poison the planet in the process
capitalism ent working, unless you’re in that rich one percent
which n-body’s ever gonna join because those coins just get p-ssed down to descendants
it’s not earned through their hard work, effort, sk!ll or intelligence
it’s william f-cked kate middleton, came inside her v-g-n-, sperm touched egg
and now some kid called george is born to be adored never go poor
hungry, thirsty, sleep on a floor or fill in an application form
to wait on a list for medication a place to live or an education
instead he’ll wear a shiny hat when daddy’s dead and he’ll rule the nation
d’ya honestly think this is the best we can do, we can make clones and send man to the moon
make iphones, robots, gm foods and still be expected to respect a dude
who wouldn’t dare sit on the bus with you to good to ride on the train or tube
takes private planes to avoid being viewed by the common people who contribute
to the status quo and are tracked by governments, attacked and bullied and addicted to supplements
trapped and punished for breaking laws enforced with no remorse or pause for thought
without recourse to courts of law, of course we could share this resource
but don’t instead we go to war for years we’ve tortured k!lled and fought
i respect real laws like einstein’s, newton’s, boyle’s and moore’s
laws of gravity, physics, sound, light, energy, life and force
i might not understand them all but still they make more sense than yours
they keep me grounded keep me alive they can’t be bribed swayed or bought
it’s time to unite and fight for what’s right, i don’t mean riot i mean decide
what kind of world you want for your child and let’s start creating it tonight
so go outside, get online, discuss, research, learn and subscribe
get your priorities right then stand for something or fall for anything right?
revolution is the absolute solution to the political corporate collusion
media’s m-ss hysteria confusion democracy in england’s simply an illusion
don’t fear the government make them fear you, fear us, aren’t you sick of being crushed?
had enough of being pushed, forced to comply tired of being shushed silenced and lied to?
‘cause i know that i am, i know that he is, she is, they are it’s
clear that people are p-ssed with the system globally on november the fifth
and ever since watching zeitgeist in two double o seven two double o six
and learning more about venus project it really made my mind-frame shift
read the establishment and watch the trews or rt no more bbc news
check billions in change out on youtube stop watching benefits street it skews your judgment
swap religion for science burn them qur’ans and all the bibles remember
david took down goliath, now can i get a moment of silence, please
