Malesh P - Politics Lyrics

Affected by political crime
I was forced to cross the Nile
They labelled it a war tone zone
But I'll always be calling it home
Affected by political crime
I was forced to cross the Nile
They labelled it a war tone zone
But I'll always be calling it home, calling it home
Yeah
My people await liberation
Youngest nation in chains suffocating
Despite the gasp I'm still representin'
Blood and tears, the fluids keep on drippin'
The struggle for power, a political struggle
Makes bullets fly, destroys a baby's milk bottle
She could've been a scientist but now a widow
Due to lack of understanding from our so call heroes
We know, money's the root of all evil
But so is your heart if you pick up a lethal weapon
And you show no mercy
You're thirsty for cash you move so adversely
I dare you to correct me if I am wrong
But on this platform your morals don't conform
With the regulation of human rights
And I hope that one day you'll consider our lives, yeah
Affected by political crime
I was forced to cross the Nile
They labelled it a war tone zone
But I'll always be calling it home
Affected by political crime
I was forced to cross the Nile
They labelled it a war tone zone
But I'll always be calling it home, calling it home
Streets aren't safe and it don't makes
People are afraid of their own leaders
Dying, hand of hate
There's no love given, no love given, no love given
Mama mama, please don't cry
Baba baba, please don't lie
12 o'clock the bullets will fly
And we ain't gone sleep all night
The baby's gonna sing
Even the birds are gonna sing
No rain and no sunshine
Dead bodies on the front line
We've lost too many soldiers
Ooh the nations getting colder
We've lost too many soldiers
Ooh the nations getting colder
Affected by political crime
I was forced to cross the Nile
They labelled it a war tone zone
But I'll always be calling it home
Affected by political crime
I was forced to cross the Nile
They labelled it a war tone zone
But I'll always be calling it home, calling it home
Yeah
I may be few thousand miles from home
But I am ready to take a ride back home
I express my apology it took so long
My mind wasn't right reading the wrong books all along
Passages that don't relate to my existence
Mis-leading materials I was almost distant
From my culture but I hold a strong belief for resilience
My expression was furious still was able to conciliate
Pulled myself together did not grant their wish
They'll do anything to seal your lips, they take and they get
Or give and they take, just know the cycle don't stop
Freedom of speech don't exist unless it's hip hop
Fist up, the power's in the hands of the people
Your actions are illegal like the times of medieval
At my middle age living young suppose to be fun
But how when death keeps occurring at the beat of these drums
Affected by political crime
I was forced to cross the Nile
They labelled it a war tone zone
But I'll always be calling it home
Affected by political crime
I was forced to cross the Nile
They labelled it a war tone zone
But I'll always be calling it home, calling it home
