2 minute silence

[Verse] You said that you love me through all of my flaws and I'm the cure and the cause And I'm the reason you grew up to fight the system and war You loved me when I was there, but love me more now I'm gone And often you shed a tear, but there's no point cryin', it's fine I'ma start by sayin' how much I'm proud of how much you've grown, how much you sold I'm losin' count of how much you won't fold under pressure, you hold it down With the family on your shoulders, you carry the name around But you're walkin' with strength I came here with your grandad, we were fortunate then 'Cause it was round about the time when all the poor people fled Heard that England was the promised land with pounds instead of dollars So we windrush to the promise in the hope of findin' solace Build a family was the project And buy a mortgage with the money So as soon as we die, you can argue with your brothers 'bout inheritance and numbers like this is why we suffered The problem with your generation is you benefited from the renovation You just moved in like you had reservations In a basin where I used to wash stood on a stone Western Union, where I had to go when callin' home You got it all all at your fingertips If you had it hard, then you really had to graft, would I see one of your fingerprints? We had to walk so you can run So I don't wanna hear 'bout you're fightin' for any slums There's a war goin' on outside and it's my grandson's They frighten the neighbours with all their handguns The government send the police in to kill the bad man It's funny 'cause they fightin' for places they both abandoned My son went to jail, then his son went to jail Is there love in the trail? Are they all of the rails? So they buy and they sell, out of love with themselves Say the family is fake, but the diamonds are real All I see is bad bitches chattin' gyal business and some gang business Funny, we nah even have business All I hear is rap niggas take a man's figures and his trap business Funny that's some real trap business I speak from a position of love 'cause everyone wants to judge And everyone's as sensitive as it comes But when it's all said and done, what we done was enough I hope you all can say the same to your sons, granny
