We are the problem - we change that
We're the solution - we arrange that
We are the future - we claim that
Mmm
London boy with a kid on his mind
London boy with his life on the line
London boy getting beat all the time
London boy tryna be on his grind
London boy in school - he's a learner
London boy - social worker
London boy rolling with that burner
Rolling with the- looking for, murder
I said it
No, I don't regret it
This is the truth so accept it
Condemn me but I have confessed it
London's a mess and we know that
But what are we planning to throw back
The Government's blaming the youth
But that is the dumbest excuse
How can you blame us the youth?
We are not the money hungry
Running your country, running for money
Then catapulting from a bungee
London let's open our eyes
Can you not see your demise?
Even if you are still blind
Can you not hear all the cries?
The government's pointing their finger at us
Then wonder why there's no foundation of trust
Backlash is what is happening
They still got 3 pointing back at them
These MPs wanna blame our dress code, blame our music, blame our skin but
Why don't they start helping kids to chase their dreams and face their fears
House of Parli's filled with MPs
But as a youth I feel it's empty
What have they done for the youth of the nation
Other than cripple our liberation
UK trades arms with 30 countries
But for the youth they can't raise a finger
MPs are doing the minimum
Maybe it's time to get rid of 'em
If I held a gun in your face
You're telling me you wouldn't feel some type of way?
Well that's exactly what you are doing
Clearly you're unaware of how you're moving
Always accusing us, we the youth
We retaliate 'cause we don't know what to do
We're young and need to be educated
Not brainwashed then thrown in the basement
Maybe they don't want to see us shining or
They don't wanna see us make it or
They don't wanna see a black man break free from the system and live to narrate it
Maybe they're scared of the power that we hold
Our melanin is more expensive than gold
So why do we seek validation from people who try to claim what we own?
Martin Luther had a dream
Mandela thought we could do better
But just take a look at the scene
Our people do not work together enough
They know that united we stand
Maybe that's why they're causing this division
To keep us circulating in their system
We have ears but don't listen
We have what, "black on black violence" over a white man's postcode
We got bruddas in the streets doing 10 toes, running from popo
Dark skin vs lighties, why are we trying to hate ourselves?
Workers vs entrepreneurs, why are we trying to break ourselves?
Young black kings let us rise up
Young black kings let's do better
First step to making a change
Is taking blame for our ways so
We are the problem - we change that
We're the solution - we arrange that
We are the future - we claim that, we claim that
We're made in God's image so put yourself in His shoes
Would you be impressed with all the things that we do?
What goes around comes around but yet we still break the rules
Then wanna get mad when it comes back and hits us right in the (Haha)
It's true that actions are louder
But it's the rain that grows the flower
Violence is not the way
But Christ is, when in crisis
We gotta be the change that we wanna see
We gotta build a name and a legacy
Coz if we don't, the heavenlies know before the cock crows but
I see a better generation
I see a harmonious nation
I see love/hope combination
I see prejudice amputation
I see my queens and they're rising up
I see my bruddas; they're climbing up
I see the people despising us recognise and realise they can't ride with us
But for now I'm praying, grinding, doing my part
Preaching or nah
I'm reaching the hearts
'Coz it's the commission that I have been given and this is the start
Turning the hearts men back to God
