Burden Of Shame |
There are murders that we must account for |
Bloody deeds have been done in my name |
Criminal acts we must pay for |
And our children will shoulder the blame |
I`m a british subject, not proud of it While i carry the burden of shame (repeat) |
As a nation we`re following blindly |
No-one stops to question why |
Our money`s supporting an army |
And a boy in soweto dies |
I`m a british subject, not proud of it While i carry the burden of shame (repeat) |
Must we go on ignoring forever |
The cries of an african son |
There`s a soldier`s hand on the trigger |
But it`s we who are pointing the gun |
I`m a british subject, not proud of it While i carry the burden of shame (repeat) |
