You taught me so well to be an idiot
I almost became every word that you said
and everyday you gave to me
special thoughts, lessons free
underwhelmed by your generosity
I quickly began to compensate
so forgive me if I sound disinterested
Why should I comply with this?
So why should I conform to this?
So why should I comply with this?
So why should I conform to this?
When I stand with the mike in my hand
A love of the land I always question those
who are in command
I'm taking nothing from the troops
in their big black boots,
got you jumping through hoops
and setting fire to your roots.
You paramilitary groups you don't scare me,
mess with the posse and they might have to tear me
off ya, check me, know what I mean?
And I don't give a f** about COMBAT-18. [12.1]
It seems simple the first time they get you
'cause children are all born the same
and they play together till someone tells them lies
and they got me this way a long time ago
but this time they won't get me, no.
Roll with the team,
turn on the high beam,
expose the lies washin' up downstream.
You see your BNP you ain't sh** to me. [12.2]
Loud mixed-Briton, proud of my ancestry.
Get back to jack to that.
