about

What would you do if it was you?

lyrics

Freedom, would you fight for your county?
Freedom, would you fight in a war?
Freedom, would you pay for protection?
Freedom, would you pay with your life?

Liars, it shouldn’t cost a penny
Liars, should not be fightin’ at all
Liars, there always consequences
Liars, it’s not our debt to pay

What would you do if it was you, would you live up to the cause?
Live like an animal, swim in the deep, end up in the jaws
Abolish money ‘cause it’s not funny when ya think of the poor
Born in a third world country’s nothin’ but an unlucky draw

What’s your problem? Our taxes pay for your war
Am sick of this s*** it’s not about control
You stir the seas but we share a boat
Humanity, will it sink or float?

What would you do if it was you, thievin’ food to survive
When every day is a struggle, they don’t care for the deprived
The suits are actin’ concerned but poverty’s not on their mind
They use our money to conquer and to divide

What’s your problem? We’re always takin’ the fall
Am working-class, I should be havin’ a ball
Equality, get it in your head
Coz folk are hungry but you’re already fed

Freedom, would you fight for your county?
Freedom, would you fight in a war?
Freedom, would you pay for protection?
Freedom, would you pay with your life?
Pay with your life!

Na na na na na…
