Apologize

Apologise (sent)
In countries that you colonised,
Nothing said can justify,
The violence used to civilise,
The world you-call free-enterprise,
Wall street suits they occupy,
Fight closures you legitimize,
Profits you collateralize,
Make-more for-those who buy-your-lies,

Apologiiiiise - all the people you despise,
Applogiiiiise - Applogiiiiise,

Each slave ship you traumatized,
Down below they agonized,
Broke their backs until they died
In killing fields dehumanized,
Instead of food you fed them lies,
Break their spirit, Blind their eyes
Their whole-world you demonized
Make sure that they do not arise

Apologiiiiise - all the people you despise,
Applogiiiiise - words you use disqualify,
Apologiiiiise - criticize and stigmatize,
Applogiiiiise - Applogiiiiise,

Generations ghettoized,
Their culture that you patronized,
Music stole and plagiarized,
Claimed you had them socialized,
That same music that you stole,
Spawned culture that you can't control,
With rage and fire it's giving hope,
To all the rest, hope is their dope,

Apologiiiiise - all the people you despise,
Applogiiiiise - words you use disqualify,
Apologiiiiise - critise and stigmatize
Applogiiiiise - Applogiiiiise,

That same music that you stole,
Spawned a culture you can't control,
With rage and fire it's giving hope,
To all-the-rest, hope is their dope,

Apologiiiiise - all the people you despise,

Applogiiiiise - words you use disqualify,
Apologiiiiise - criticize and stigmatize
Applogiiiiise - Applogiiiiise,
