[Intro]
(Juls, baby)
[Verse 1: Wretch 32]
Politics going on
All the babies dem growing up
So we hustle till the morning come
Still, I don't know why it's always us-v-us
[Chorus: Wretch 32]
House pon the hills
Still, we make it work for the working class
Time don't stand still
Make it last
Peace and love, peace and love
Peace and love, peace and love
Peace and love, peace and love
Peace and love, peace and love
Why the war can't done?
[Verse 2: Skrapz]
Boom, cah my people still suffеring
The problems ain't stopping, you can keep your peacе offering
It's winter outside so everybody's probably hustling
Summertime, it's due to start going off again
The streets start gossiping and that's when the police start locking in
And niggas start getting locked up
In only God we trust 'cause the system's corrupt
And when push comes to shove, it's been them versus us
Plus it's us versus us too
So if it's fuck me, it's fuck you
Respect's due when I come through
I've got a lot to gain and even more to lose
In the morning, I don't watch the news
'Cause I'm too busy calculating moves
I stay true to myself, all this pain that I felt
I guess it's just the cards I was dealt
You can't hear you're gonna feel 'cause it's real in the fields
That's the main reason that I can't chill until I got my
[Chorus: Wretch 32]
House pon the hills
Still, we make it work for the working class
Time don't stand still
Make it last
Peace and love, peace and love
Peace and love, peace and love
Peace and love, peace and love
Peace and love, peace and love
Why the war can't done?
[Verse 3: Wretch 32]
I ain't safe till I break and escape the estate
It was fate, but I can't win the game always
I'm amazed that I paved me a way
Had to step on them stones in the concrete
A little bit of drive and they're pulling me over
The war can't done cah we don't when it's over
So we're selling green in the form of a clover
Just to get some luck, but mi lucky fi know ya
I had a line, so my brother and my sister had a line
Sometimes I think we're tryna draw a way out
Maybe that's why the pen's the jailhouse
Told cuz to write me, he's too posted up to post the mail out
My niggas in the can get monthly payments from man
See, I don't never turn my back, I don't even go back to back anymore
Asked the fam to tell me why it's a gang
When there's tension under the bridge and water over the dam, it's a flaw
[Chorus: Wretch 32]
House pon the hills
Still, we make it work for the working class
Time don't stand still
Make it last
Peace and love, peace and love
Peace and love, peace and love
Peace and love, peace and love
Peace and love, peace and love
Why the war can't done?
[Spoken Outro]
It's gonna get worse, do you not understand?
Of course it's gonna get worse
Look what happened, they kill our mothers, they shoot our mother
They lock up innocent children
What's, what's gonna happen?
They can come in your yard and kill you
They can come in your yard and kill you
They can come in my yard and kill me, right?
And they can go to a British school and a British judge will at them and say
"It's alright, you lot have nothing to answer"
Shoot a woman, "It's alright, you were under stress, you been working so hard
And we gave you a gun not realising the pressures you was under
So you can go in there and shoot her
But don't worry about it, I'll tell you what we're gonna do
We're gonna dismiss the cases, but you can't have a gun again"
Great, well done, justice is a thing to be served
