Good is Good and Evil is Evil
When will you learn people are people
Life ain't always sweet like treacle
Sometimes you have to settle to be cool
That's not right. I'm like gimme that mic
Let me state facts right, he don't like mics
But in that case he was right,
it don't matter if you're black or white or scratch alright?
Cos that's the same guy lets re-unite
Don't be on a hype, whats the bet we'll fight
I wont make a song, saying I'm white
When you see me, you'll know what I look like
Say what you want, they aim for your dome
Whether black hair, brown, ginger or blonde
You've just started, allow the guns
Stand up strong united kingdom
Chorus:
Roll Deep hate racism people
They say we aint equal
We're all here for the same thing
Plus we're bones and skin
And we're going to the same place
Whether you like it or not
Plus we aint got long left
So you better know whats what
Verse 2: Breeze
I'm a human being, just like you
Not something stuck to the bottom of your shoe
Get it in your head, I was born and bred
I'm a UK citizen passports Red
G-d willin I just want an honest living
Look at me, I ain;t shooting or killing
Don't treat me like the cat amongst the pigeons
Stop boxing me in and let me spread my wings
Its my turn, let me say my ting
Don't judge me by the colour of my skin
Judge me by the music I bring
And the good that I do, not the circle I'm in
It shouldn't matter what colour you are
You can be an MP or study the stars
I just wanna get to the end of the rainbow
I guess that why I have colourful bars
Chorus:
Roll Deep hate racism people
They say we aint equal
We're all here for the same thing
Plus we're bones and skin
And we're going to the same place
Whether you like it or not
Plus we aint got long left
So you better know whats what
Verse 3: RIko
I can't deal with no racists
Lets face it they're basically misled and mistaken
I got mates who are jet black,
I got mates who are nuff pale white and pasty
I hear you say you don't like .....
Not your not racism? Those things amaze me
And I remember, back in the day
Jonny's mates used to chase me
So lets face it, being racist is blatantly dumb
There's no way I can't bait it
And those bully boy tactics,
Well I'm a big boy now, there's no way I'll take it
Get me mad, i'll go off like billy the kid
They tell me to stop the war ting
But I always defend ethnic minorities....
Chorus:
Roll Deep hate racism people
They say we aint equal
We're all here for the same thing
Plus we're bones and skin
And we're going to the same place
Whether you like it or not
