[Intro] Did you hear what they said? Yeah yeah Another brother's dead It's all politics Listen [Verse 1: Lowkey] This is Lowkizzy and I ain't got no choice But to rep for the kiddies that ain't got no voice For the girls and the snot noses boy that don't know Why the Queen's face is on those coins (Let's let them know) All the jewels, the crown, even the throne's stolen They hide it 'cause the truth is ugly like Mo Mowland How could you live large when kids starving to eat Why bring war if Bin Laden's asking for peace? I've got gems to drop on weak emcees And got a middle finger up to the BNP While our kids get fed lies from teachers The news teach us to hate all asylum seekers Still youth man's is sending food cans to the Sudan While we're knocking out tunes like Chris Eubank Even Danny Williams, me and my activists They legalise cannabis and free the Palestinians I'm watched my manor by cameras and helicopters While third world countries are hungry for better doctors They didn't help their kids in Rwanda, escape the massacre You think Blair really cares about AIDS in Africa I see kids on the news with their arms horribly thin Why vote if only one of two parties can possibly win 'Cause if we don't let our voices be heard There's no way of stopping these pricks destroying the Earth Many people I know find it hard to cope They don't have a say 'cause they just can't be arsed to vote I've got to help the man better themself Imagine you were right with Nelson Mandela in jail Giving your life for a freedom we take for granted What's the point in having a choice of you don't take advantage At the same time, I don't love living in this place I appreciate all the gifts I was given on a plate It's politic [Chorus] Did you hear what they said? Another brother's dead Did you hear what they said? Another brother's dead [Verse 2: Yungun] What's politics? A way to represent the populace? A way to find common ground between opposites? I'd like to think so, I'd like to play the optimist But I'm not sure it works, I'm sorry if I state that obvious But I got deep problems with tryna be conscious 'Cause I don't want to sound preach, the or seem pompous, but This is a so-called civilised country And there's people mentally caged and living like monkeys What's politics? Getting raped by the state in each orifice? Something most kids don't even bother with 'Cause the problem is, who the hell do we vote for? When both major parties would have sent us to those wars To settle the old scores of a mad son, from a bad dad Tryna drop bombs over Baghdad So kids don't want to vote and all they do these days Is shoot at planes and Desert Storm computer games Chasing Teenage Dreams But did they know there's only been the women's votes since 1918? It wasn't seen as a right through the 1800s It was more a privilege that these days we squander But people think there's no hope, so we don't vote And the noose gets strung around our own throats Until we're hung from our own rope And playing dumb's no fun when you're sprung and it's no joke I know because I didn't vote myself Wouldn't support 'em, I ignored them, told them, "Go to Hell" And told myself that even if I talk they won't listen But that apathy was actually a form of submission And because I didn't vote the authority was given To the current government to set the policy and Britain So who's the more fool? The fool? The fool that follows him? (Us) Or that fool's foolish following? It's politics [Outro: Lowkey] Yungun, DJ Snips. It's the Politics Remix? Yeah. Yeah This is out to everybody that intends to vote We gotta use the opportunities we have Ake advantage Make a difference So we can change the way we're living in Great Britain, fuck being a slave to this system
