Sirens ring out on this late night scene The strong are left fighting while the wounded scream No I don't have American dreams Cause I'm awake and my eyes they see Light a match and start the flame Concentrated anger has now been aimed At those who spread the pain We all know who's to blame CHORUS My eyes see what you've tried to hide All the things that you've denied Now you watch as the flames glow A burning co*ktail in a murdering ghetto You leave us here to off our own You've watched our power and numbers grow As you sit there on your thrown As the fire engulfs and the city glows Antagonist, hit and miss, end up with a broken fist Pa**ivised, broken chin, cause you don't know how to fight and win Stupid sh** forced to live with on a daily basis
We're all alive, but we're all deprived Of a life that we're all entitled to They only care about themselves they don't care about you So you may be safe while the lights are around But you better hope to god they don't go down Have you forgotten your guts in my town? What else you have lost man before you have turned around? Your cowardice have plagued my entire ground Ghetto is a mad kingdom raped by the fantasy you have settled down Have you f**ing intended to get me from behind? Since I have swallowed things out coming from your lies Creeping in my breathing space and making me feel paralysed Would you once be my guest and see truth from inside? [CHORUS] We've got our weapon and we're ready to throw, A burning co*ktail in a murdering ghetto
