Welcome To England by Akala
Welcome To England lyrics
Welcome to England
Part of so called Great Britain
But ain't a fucking thing great about the way we are living
For me it's hard to see how we're perceived over seas
It's believed and sip teas and speak like the queen
Nigger please, these streets will suck your blood like a leech
A lot of showers and you get wet, but real far froma beach
Dole queue, �50 a week, ends don't meet, if ya like me even your mums done hustle more than weed.
Cos Times are harder
You get dads but few get fathers
And we still pray but shit, get few answers
Every single area with an ethnic majoirty
Full of drugs, guns and poverty - getting to 30 is a lottery
And the govenment deceiving the white working classes
into beleving they're so poor due to us black bastards.
Bullshit, like we're living so cool - go to your local fast food - take a look at whos serving you!
And the schools are bullshit too, so we're weighing out grams.
I'm a stranger 'mongst the mans cause I got some exams
I'm cool with the dudes - real nice with the knowledge yet I'mThe only one who finished school let alone college
Our role models ain't doctors but shotters who pop hollows
Chefs who cook food they'll kill you if you swallow
So addictive once the wicked ting hold you you're never right
Can't begin to count the lives I've seen consumed by the pipe.
