teknik - no man's land(1974) lyrics
no man’s land(1974)
(intro)
teknik!
no man’s land
july 1974 the island was invaded
this goes out to all my cypriot, greek & turkish brothers and sisters
free our land
peace and love
verse:
1974
we got invaded
kicked out their homes
where my family
were raised in
to this day
it’s abandoned
turkish occupation
varosha was the town
yeah a popular location
beautiful water
on the beach
it looked amazing
but now its all ghost town
casper found his way in,(d+mn)
had to flee the country
uk the destination
had to suffer racists
foreign migration
couple hundred thousand
on the north side kicked out
no where to go
yеah the future it was in doubt
started in kyrеnia
then it all flipped out
women raped
kids shot
tell me what this things bout
1300 cypriots
all caged up in the name of enosis
people in danger
second invasion
an evil operation
165 thousand
on the pavement
the greek government
backed the military coups
then they tried to sort it
but instead they chose to shoot
separated by the green line
research in my free time
ill say it how it is
and ill say it how i feel like
20th july
a couple things went down
tanks and full forces
people they just bled out
genocides happened
innocents just dead now
soldiers got it too
then the president stepped down
a new one come in
it didn’t change nothing
a quarter of the island gone
yeah this is disgusting
they control it
and just left it in a mess
bought my people so much stress
they can never accept
i feel the tension
by the borders
soldiers with their guns
you better turn off your recorders
sn+tch it out your hand
or leave you beat down in a corner
this is no mans land
they put the signs up to warn ya
its crazy(crazy)
such a beautiful land
but now all its got left
abandoned buildings & sand
rusty cars on the road
i swear the feeling is mad,(mad
i could have lived in them times
it would have been real bad,(bad)
so i’m grateful for my ancestors
all my cypriots united
yeah we winning
i ain’t talking bout no manchester
yeah the country still beautiful
sights & all the sea
all the food, all the weather
all the people, all the trees
δεν μπορούν να πάρουν όλα όμορφα
(they can’t take all the beautiful)
πράγματα της κύπρου μακριά
(things of cyprus away)
love for my people
my οικογένεια(family)
hope im making yiayia(nan) proud
στείλτε τα φιλιά(send her kisses)
our homes turned to a war zone
no longer a sea view
these are the facts that the system won’t teach you
this story here is true
i’ve experienced the town
i’m just tryna make you see too
outro(talking)
the mediterranean deception
the island of cyprus used by the west for nearly 50 years to launch countless attacks on my brothers and sisters in the middle east
all in the name of stability and peace but it’s actually about divide and conquer
free cyprus
free palestine
free all the countries that have gone through the same pain
we are all one
