Refused

Burn It

From Everlasting1994

Produced by Fred Estby, Tomas Skogsberg

Lyrics

Burn It

Another page in a history book Another lie to justify the lands we took Another page in a history book Another lie to forget the lifes we took

Another page in a history book Another lie to justify the lands we took Another page in a history book Another lie

History repeats itself In another second Generations of exploitations And we just don't get it

Burn it - burn this lie down Burn it - no more enslavement Burn it - burn this history page Burn it - just fucking burn it

Human life is still worth less Than possession of power And we are slaves of today Under fascist co-operations

Burn it - burn this lie down Burn it - no more enslavement Burn it - burn this history page Burn it - just fucking burn it

Another page in a history book Another lie to justify the lands we took Another page in a history book Another lie to forget the lifes we took

Another page in a history book Another lie to justify the lands we took Another page in a history book Another lie to forget the lifes we took

Structured to maintain the awareness And the civilizations we made The lands we plundered and the cultures we raped Were all part of progression

The victims of a capitalist system Just statistics in history books That glorify mass murders And the genocides

What has changed and what have we accomplished In our strive for equality? Oppression rules and money controls In a world were war is still Economically beneficial For those in power

In a sexist, (racist), homophobic existence We still fight for freedom

Refused have announced their final European and UK tour dates before disbanding

Swedish hardcore punk band Refused announce farewell tour across Europe and UK before ending their 33-year career.

Refused - War Music

‘War Music’ is forged in the fire of live performance, and it shows.

Refused: "it wasn’t like, ‘Oh my god, the Refused myth! We’ve gotta preserve it at all costs.’"

This week, Refused released their first album in seventeen years, ‘Freedom’. It’s a record that, by simply existing, creates division. When the band fir...
