Crass - I Know There Is Love lyrics
Think I was born on this wretched earth for you to govern and kill? In your stinking factories and offices with your stupid systems and skills? Think I've got nothing better to do than to grovel in the shit and the crap? Asking for the bread and home that's mine and waiting for a pat on the back? Think I've got nothing better to do than to live in the lie that you give? Learn the sweet morals, the lessons, the games And praise god for the fact that I live? You took me and made me a MAN by making me strong, the power of this land You took a woman and taught her she's less A slave to the strong no more than a guest You taught me to love, find a mate and to take A woman to serve but your love is just rape You leave me my children to hold and distort To bind with your rules of normality til caught I give them the food that you sell in the shops I'm told is has goodness when it's only the slops You've taken my health with your shitty benevolence You've take my dignity with your dole queue dependence You taught me to steal when I wanted to share To take for myself and not even care You've stifled my vision with oppressive authority Dreams and the hopes nearly fade to strangle me Gave me confusion until I had learnt To obey all the orders and never get burnt I shout in the streets and you take my voice This sham of democracy leaves no choice Take my eyes 'til there's nothing to see Except abuse and destruction, no chance to be free Taken my thinking, my means of survival Thrust in my hand your gun and your bible Told me to kill for the lord up above You've given me hate when I KNOW THERE IS LOVE Told me to kill for the lord up above You've given me hate when I KNOW THERE IS LOVE |
