"Black Stars" lyrics

"Black Stars"

Black stars and stripes they are hurting
It's time that we start learning
Those stars and stripes they are hurting

Black stars and stripes they are hurting
It's time that we start learning
Those stars and stripes they are hurting

Everybody, people know so (you done know)
It no sweet but you're living in sandstone
You buy a house, you buy a car
And from the proceeds of Grime
You be living like a rock star
Where you think me come from, from ah tree?
Dragged on a slave ship
Me never come here for free
You wanna talk but then the head butt
Blap blap blap
And then the gunshots ring...

Black stars and stripes are hurting
It's time we all start turning
I know you feel the same
Coz we all believe we need to change
Those stars and stripes are hurting
It's time we all start turning
I know you feel the same
Coz we all believe we need to change

Black stars and stripes they are hurting
It's time that we start learning

The scars and the lies got the devil on the phone
The scars and the lies got you living in that zone
The scars and the lies gunna make the people fight
The scars and the lies got the vipers in the night

The criminal he is in the White House
The real criminal he is in Downing Street
Check the papers and the food that they eat
I've been telling you for time, this conspiracy is neat, yeah!

Black stars and stripes are hurting
It's time we all start turning
I know you feel the same
Coz we all believe we need to change
Those stars and stripes are hurting
It's time we all start turning
I know you feel the same
Coz we all believe we need to change

Vex no ras, vex no ras
Everybody in the world
You know dem vex no ras

Vex no ras, vex no ras
Everybody in the world
You know dem... bring it!

Vex no ras
Vex no ras
Vex no ras

Black stars and stripes are hurting
It's time we all start turning
I know you feel the same
And we all believe we need to change
Those stars and stripes are hurting
It's time we all start turning
I know you feel the same
Coz we all believe we need to change

Black stars and stripes are hurting
It's time we all start turning
I know you feel the same
Coz we all believe we need to change
Those stars and stripes are hurting
It's time we all start turning
I know you feel the same
Coz we all believe we need to change

Black stars and stripes are hurting
It's time we all start turning
I know you feel the same
Coz we all believe we need to change
Those stars and stripes are hurting
It's time we all start turning
I know you feel the same
Coz we all believe we need to change
